Fractional product leadership. Turning data capabilities into product organisations that scale.

I have built product organisations from zero.

I'm Delphine Renaud, a product leader with 20+ years  experience building product organisations in measurement, audience analytics and data businesses, including Kantar, Ipsos, Comscore and Opensignal. As your fractional Chief Product Officer, I help you set the product direction, take it to market with your commercial teams, and transform your organisation into a product led organisation.

At Opensignal I built the product team from zero to 15+ product managers, while ARR grew from about $5M to $17M at exit. Now under PE ownership, the platform is now worth $100M+ globally.

At Comscore I was the voice of Product with Joint Industry Committees including across Europe including UKOM.

Product operating model

A clear view of where product sits, how it works with delivery, commercial and tech, and which roles you need.

Go to market and positioning

A defined offer (what is available today and what can be tailored), USPs, plain language messaging and a go to market plan per product and market.

Sales enablement and collateral

Decks, one pagers and a demo storyline, plus briefings so sales teams and other service lines can pitch with confidence. I can also be the product voice in client meetings.

Product management discipline

A roadmap, priorities, customer feedback loops and the processes that connect development sprints to commercial results.

Product team hiring and development

Role definitions, hiring, coaching and training of product teams to become product leaders.

What I help with

Typical use cases I get hired for.

Businesses built on bespoke projects for one client at a time need different muscles to run products that serve hundreds of clients.

• Turning vision into a clear product roadmap and driving alignment across multiple stakeholder groups in complex organisations with conflicting priorities.
• Turning ad hoc country specific data capabilities into scalable, standardised product offerings that sell globally.
• Creating and executing go to market plans.
• Partnering with commercial teams and customers, and being the voice of product.
• Transforming engineering led organisations into customer centric, product led organisations.
• Hiring, developing, training and coaching product leaders.

Start small, expand as needed

A fractional engagement that you control.

The easiest way to begin is to hire me for a few days, paid at a daily rate, so we can scope out your bespoke requirements. We can then agree a per project fee if that suits your organisation better.

Because it is fractional, you control the scope, the days and the budget.

Experience that matters

From comScore and Ipsos ASI to Opensignal.

• Opensignal, VP Product Management (2019 to 2025). Joined at about $5M ARR and built the product organisation from zero to 15+ product managers. Moved the business from selling raw data to a modular subscription analytics platform, growing ARR from about $5M to $17M at exit across 70+ customers in 35 to 40 countries. Grew accounts from $150K to $250K entry points to $1M to $3M+ through modular upsell, including T-Mobile US. After acquisition, led portfolio integration across three businesses, now generating $100M+ globally.
• comScore, Product Manager to Senior Director (2009 to 2019). Led the global rollout of audience analytics products across 20+ markets for over 10 years. Defined country specific go to market plans, including product marketing, sales enablement, pricing and messaging, and worked with Joint Industry Committees worldwide, including UKOM.
• Ipsos ASI, Associate Director (2008). Led 18 project managers delivering 400 online studies and £8M revenue a year, so I know how large research organisations work from the inside.

The human side of product leadership

Whilst AI now plays a major role in product development, product management is primarily about human leadership.

• Leadership programmes for product and delivery leads. How to enable commercial, marketing and other teams, and how to lead people through change. Useful if delivery leads, rather than a dedicated product team, will own product.
• Coaching for leaders in complex transformation. One to one and group coaching for leaders working under pressure.
• Workshops and keynotes for leadership teams on high performance, emotional regulation and sustainable leadership.

Working together

Engagements are flexible: a few days a month or a few days a week, from a single initiative to an ongoing embedded role. I am based in London and can work in person from your office in London, or remotely across time zones.
