Description
Shape the Future of Digital Working
Technology is transforming the way professional services firms collaborate, share knowledge and deliver value to clients. We are looking for a Digital Workplace & Gen AI Product Owner to help drive the next phase of that journey.
This is an opportunity to take ownership of our Microsoft 365 collaboration ecosystem and help define how Generative AI technologies are adopted across the business. Working at the intersection of technology, user experience and innovation, you will ensure colleagues can collaborate effectively, access knowledge seamlessly and leverage emerging AI capabilities in a secure, governed and practical way.
You'll play a key role in translating rapidly evolving Microsoft and AI technologies into meaningful business outcomes, partnering with stakeholders across legal teams, business services and technology functions to maximise adoption, productivity and value.
Why Join Us?
This is a unique opportunity to influence the future of digital work within a leading professional services environment.
You'll have the autonomy to shape product strategy, drive innovation and champion the adoption of next-generation workplace technologies, including Microsoft Copilot and other AI-powered productivity tools. The role offers significant visibility across the business and the chance to work closely with senior stakeholders on strategic initiatives that deliver measurable impact.
Key Responsibilities
- Own the roadmap for Microsoft 365 collaboration and productivity tools, ensuring alignment with business strategy and user needs.
- Lead the development and enhancement of digital workplace capabilities across SharePoint, Teams, OneDrive and the wider Microsoft 365 suite.
- Identify opportunities to leverage Generative AI technologies, including Microsoft Copilot, to improve productivity, collaboration and knowledge sharing.
- Evaluate emerging Microsoft and AI capabilities, making recommendations on adoption, governance and business value.
- Develop and maintain product backlogs, prioritising enhancements, adoption initiatives and governance improvements.
- Define and implement effective collaboration standards, information architecture and workspace governance frameworks.
- Partner with technology, compliance, security and business stakeholders to ensure solutions balance innovation with appropriate risk management.
- Work closely with change, training and communications teams to drive adoption and user engagement.
- Establish success metrics and monitor product performance, adoption levels, productivity gains and return on investment.
- Produce reporting, recommendations and business cases for technology leadership and governance forums.
- Act as a trusted advisor to stakeholders seeking to improve business processes through Microsoft 365 and AI-enabled solutions.

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What Success Looks Like
You'll create clear direction for the organisation's digital workplace strategy, helping colleagues embrace modern ways of working while ensuring technology remains secure, well-governed and aligned to business objectives.
Most importantly, you'll combine innovation with pragmatism, identifying opportunities where Microsoft 365 and AI can genuinely improve productivity, collaboration and user experience across the business.
Skills, Knowledge and Expertise
We're interested in professionals who combine strong digital workplace expertise with commercial awareness and a genuine passion for improving user experience.
You'll ideally bring:
- Strong knowledge of Microsoft 365 technologies, particularly SharePoint, Teams, OneDrive, Outlook, Word and PowerPoint.
- Experience owning or managing digital workplace, collaboration or productivity products within a professional services, regulated or enterprise environment.
- Experience developing product roadmaps, managing backlogs and driving continuous improvement initiatives.
