Job description
AIQ Group brings together AccountsIQ and ExpenseIn to help finance teams work smarter, faster, and with greater confidence. Our solutions simplify complex financial processes, giving businesses better visibility, control, and insight as they grow.
We're focused on building high-quality products, delivering real value to our customers, and continuing to scale in a fast-moving market. Across the group, we work collaboratively, bring energy to what we do, take action, and continuously raise the bar.
Wherever you sit (AccountsIQ, ExpenseIn, or across the group), you'll be part of a team that's ambitious, supportive, and focused on making an impact.
The Role
We're looking for a Product Owner to sit at the intersection of customer insight, business priorities, and product delivery. You'll act as the voice of the customer within the product team - turning feedback, usage patterns, and business goals into a clear, prioritised backlog that engineering can execute against. Working closely with our VP of Product and engineering team, you'll play a key role in ensuring we're building the right things, in the right order.
What you'll be doing:
Own customer insight and backlog priorities
- Gather and synthesise feedback from customers, identifying recurring themes and pain points
- Translate insight into a clear, prioritised backlog aligned to customer value and business goals
- Balance short-term improvements with longer-term product evolution
Drive delivery with engineering
- Own and maintain a well-structured, groomed backlog in Jira
- Write clear, actionable user stories with strong acceptance criteria
- Work closely with engineers to clarify requirements, manage trade-offs, and keep delivery moving
Build product understanding and contribute to direction
- Develop a deep understanding of the platform, customer workflows, and key use cases
- Become the internal go-to for "how does this work and why does it work that way" questions, reducing reliance on engineering for product-level context.
- Support product discovery by helping define problems and sense-check solutions
Communicate clearly across the business
- Keep internal teams informed on what's being built and when
- Coordinate feature releases with engineering and share clear release notes and updates
- Be a single point of contact for "what's coming and when" - maintaining visibility across the organisation., 3. You'll interview with the hiring manager (and potentially other interviewers relevant for this position), during which you'll deliver a presentation. You'll be issued a brief before the interview to support you with preparing for the presentation.
- Once all the interviews have been completed, you'll be issued feedback from the AIQ Recruitment team.
Requirements
- Proven experience as a Product Owner (or in a similar role) within a software product environment
- The ability to write clearly and concisely, whether that's user stories, acceptance criteria, or internal updates
- Confidence working closely with engineers, with a solid understanding of technical constraints and trade-offs
- Experience managing and prioritising a product backlog using tools like Jira
- Strong stakeholder management skills, with the confidence to ask questions, challenge thinking, and push back where needed
- The ability to prioritise effectively in a fast-paced environment with competing demands
- A pragmatic, solutions-focused mindset - you're comfortable making decisions without having perfect information
- Experience working in a small team or scale-up environment, where ownership and adaptability are key
- Familiarity with web platforms (ideally .NET) and/or mobile apps
