At Xero I’m responsible for developing the product vision for Integration Partnerships. I set our roadmap and build the teams to execute it as well as coordinating product research, design exploration, prioritization, planning and product development. There’s a lot of collaboration with strategic partners like Hubspot, Microsoft, Google and Shopify. It’s messy and complicated, but it’s a lot of fun bringing integrations to life that see small businesses use Xero and grow their business.
