Hello! I'm Max Leroy, an audience and product strategist 👨🔧
I work with media leaders to sharpen and bring their vision to life 🚀
I launched an interactive show at CNN, led the audience product team at The New York Times, helped shape Le Monde's English-language strategy, and headed product and design at POLITICO in Europe.
Working on something new? Let's connect! ✌️

When Max joined my team at CNN, by his second day, he was already talking to users, gathering feedback, and refining the Jobs To Be Done to unite the team around a shared product vision.
Having Max as a partner-in-crime at the helm of the product team at POLITICO was a game-changer for me and the newsroom. His enthusiasm and willingness to explore, along with his ability to come up with quick and agile solutions, was invaluable.
Max is the kind of person you immediately want to work with. He brings deep empathy, critical thinking, and creativity to every problem. He sets a standard for excellence and never backs down.
Former Vice President, Product & Design at The Atlantic, Head of Product, News at Apple, and Product Director at The New York Times
We were impressed by Max’s ability to refine our international product and market strategy. His analytical and synthesis skills, combined with his highly appreciated personality, make him a rare professional to work with.
Max is an exceptionally strong product leader. His design background gives him a rigorous focus on solving real customer problems, as well as a strong sense of brand and marketing. He is also a great communicator. Great things happen when Max is at the helm.
