Product Owner

You’ll take ownership of day-to-day product delivery, helping turn business and customer requirements into clear priorities for engineering and ensuring work continues moving in the right direction. The business is looking for someone who can operate with autonomy. You’ll be trusted to make decisions, challenge where appropriate and bring structure to competing requirements rather than waiting to be told what to do.

We’re working exclusively with a growing technology business looking to appoint an experienced Product Owner as they enter their next stage of growth. This is a hands-on position for someone who enjoys being close to both the product and the engineering team., * Strong commercial experience as a Product Owner within a software or digital environment.

• Genuine experience owning and prioritising a product backlog.
• Confidence working directly with software engineering teams.
• Experience turning requirements into clear, actionable work.
• A strong understanding of Agile product delivery.
• The ability to balance competing priorities and make sensible decisions.
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills.
• An organised and dependable approach to delivery.
• The confidence to work independently and take ownership.

Experience within government, public-sector or another regulated environment would be useful, but is not essential. Strong Product Owners from commercial technology environments are equally encouraged to apply. Most importantly, we’re looking for somebody who genuinely understands Product Ownership in practice - someone who can talk confidently about the decisions they’ve made, problems they’ve solved and products they’ve helped deliver.

The Opportunity

You’ll be joining at an important point in the company’s growth, with the opportunity to have genuine influence over how products are prioritised and delivered.

You’ll work closely with senior leadership and engineering in an environment where good judgement and ownership are valued.
