About the Role
We are looking for a thoughtful and collaborative Product Manager to help shape the strategy for one of our key digital focus areas. In this role, you will guide the direction, user experience, operational efficiency, and overall success of the digital platforms, services, or solutions within your remit. You will contribute across the full product lifecycle, from early ideation through to retirement, ensuring each stage supports customer needs and aligns with our broader business objectives.
Working closely with other Digital Product Managers, Product Designers, Business Product Owners, and colleagues across teams and divisions, you will help identify opportunities, prioritise requirements, and develop a clear and responsive product roadmap. Your approach will be grounded in insight: understanding customer challenges, monitoring the competitive landscape, commissioning and reviewing research, and acting as an advocate for the customer perspective in decision‑making. You will also work with internal and external partners, including suppliers, to ensure products and features are delivered effectively and sustainably.
