Senior Product Manager
Salary: £75,000 - £95,000 + Bonus + Excellent Benefits
Hybrid Working | 2 Days Per Week in Office
Are you an experienced Product Manager who thrives in complexity, enjoys shaping products from the ground up, and can confidently operate where there isn't a playbook?
We're looking for a Senior Product Manager to take ownership of a portfolio of business-critical, custom-built applications that support operational teams working in the field, internal business users and external customers.
This is an opportunity to join a business investing heavily in digital transformation, where you'll have genuine ownership of product strategy, roadmap and delivery while helping reshape business processes alongside technology.
The Opportunity
You'll own the vision, roadmap and ongoing evolution of several bespoke software products that sit at the heart of the business' operational delivery.
Working closely with senior stakeholders, software engineers and external development partners, you'll translate business challenges into clear product direction, balancing strategic priorities with day-to-day delivery.
These products are relatively new, meaning you'll play a key role in defining not only what gets built, but also how the business evolves around the technology. You'll be comfortable navigating ambiguity, making informed product decisions and influencing stakeholders at every level.
This role offers significant long-term opportunity as both the product portfolio and Product team continue to grow.
Key Responsibilities
  • Own the product strategy, vision and roadmap for multiple custom software products
  • Prioritise product backlogs based on customer value, business goals and operational needs
  • Work closely with senior business stakeholders to understand challenges, influence decision making and agree priorities
  • Translate complex business requirements into clear product requirements for engineering teams
  • Partner with internal software engineers and third-party development partners throughout the product lifecycle
  • Lead product discovery, delivery and continuous improvement activities
  • Use customer feedback, operational data, incidents and product metrics to shape future roadmap decisions
  • Challenge existing business processes and identify opportunities to improve operational efficiency
  • Balance strategic thinking with hands-on product management
  • Communicate product vision, priorities, risks and trade-offs with clarity and confidence
About You
We're looking for someone who enjoys solving complex business problems and can operate effectively in fast-changing environments.
You'll likely have experience as a:
  • Senior Product Manager
  • Product Manager
  • Lead Product Manager
  • Senior Product Owner
You'll bring experience of:
  • Managing complex, custom-built software products
  • Owning end-to-end product roadmaps
  • Product strategy and roadmap prioritisation
  • Working with Agile software delivery teams
  • Managing senior stakeholders across multiple business functions
  • Translating business requirements into product solutions
  • Working with engineering teams and third-party software development partners
  • Balancing strategic planning with hands-on product delivery
  • Managing products used by operational or field-based workforces
  • Improving customer and user experience through digital products
Experience with tools such as Jira and Confluence would be beneficial.
We're Particularly Interested In People Who Have Worked In
We're open to industry background, but experience in operationally complex environments would be highly relevant, including organisations that have:
  • Field service operations
  • Mobile workforces
  • Installation or maintenance teams
  • Logistics
  • Utilities
  • Telecommunications
  • Infrastructure
  • Asset management
  • Facilities management
  • Property technology
  • Construction technology
  • Enterprise SaaS
  • Digital transformation programmes
What Makes This Different?
This isn't a role where every process already exists.
We're looking for someone who is comfortable working through ambiguity, making pragmatic product decisions and influencing change. You'll need to know when to zoom into the detail and when to step back and think strategically.
You'll work closely with Directors, senior leadership and cross-functional teams while helping build and shape the future Product function.
If you enjoy ownership, solving difficult problems and delivering products that have a tangible impact on how a business operates, we'd love to hear from you.

  • £75,000 - £95,000 salary
  • Performance bonus (up to 17.5%)
  • Hybrid working (2 days per week in the office)
  • Comprehensive benefits package
  • Genuine opportunity to shape product strategy and influence business transformation
  • Clear opportunity for future leadership as the Product team grows
