## Description

You will be the first hire in our product function. You will take the high-level vision and turn it into features, user stories and acceptance criteria that our engineering and design teams can build from first time.

This is a hands-on role. You will own the backlog, run refinement and be in the detail every day. For the right person, it is the foundation of a product career: the team will grow as the platform does, and so will your scope.

What you will do

 * Break epics into well-structured features, user stories and testable acceptance criteria
 * Own and prioritise the product backlog, balancing customer value, commercial impact, regulatory need and technical effort
 * Lead backlog refinement, sprint planning and sprint reviews with engineering and design
 * Turn complex ideas into clear user flows, process maps and diagrams using Miro, Confluence and similar tools
 * Work with compliance, risk, operations, dealing, marketing and customer service to capture requirements early
 * Challenge assumptions, including those of senior leadership, using customer insight, data and commercial reasoning
 * Use product analytics and customer feedback to measure what we ship and shape what comes next
 * Help define how product works here: templates, Definition of Ready and Done, documentation standards
