In a nutshell:
Reimagine what it means to buy from Britain’s most trusted brands. At Argos, we’ve always been a bit ahead of the curve. From the iconic catalogue to game-changing click-and-collect, we’ve shaped how the UK shops for decades. Today, our mission is even bolder: to make every buying experience, whether at Argos, Tu or Habitat, not just seamless, but remarkable.
About the Role
We’re looking for a talented and experienced Product Manager for Argos Commercial, excelling in the complex problem space, brilliant at working across multiple teams and someone who puts progress before perfection.
We welcome applicants who have a technical background, have worked across horizontal outcomes and love collaborating with other people. In this pivotal position, you will help to lead and execute on the strategic vision for Argos Commercial’s Stockless ecosystem, working closely with engineers, architects, 3rd party software providers and the broader product team. Experience with price and promotions, data services and product attribution are highly desirable.
We’re aggressively growing our range and deepening our relevance by embracing stockless models, partnering with suppliers to offer more choice without holding physical inventory. You’ll be key to building the product experiences and systems that make that work: data services, integrating complex data models and taxonomies, surfacing new inventory, integrating third-party fulfilment, and managing new complexities in order management and returns, keeping the whole eco-system working in harmony.
You’ll thrive here if you:
- Love complexity and have experience operating platforms at scale
- Are a systems thinker with empathy for customers and sharp commercial instincts
- Know when to sweat the detail and when to ship and learn
- Have experience with multi-channel fulfilment, stocked/stockless, home delivery, click and collect (bonus points!)
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
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.
Why this matters:
Argos isn’t just a retailer. It’s a platform - and now that platform powers not only Argos but Tu and Habitat too. In this role, you’ll shape a shared commerce backbone used by millions, and extend our reach well beyond what our shelves can hold.
This is product at its most meaningful. You’ll be solving real customer problems, building for massive scale, and creating new capabilities that will define how our brands grow in the next decade.
What I Need to Do
- Support end-to-end delivery by maintaining a 90-day product roadmap and contributing to the prioritised and estimated FY backlog.
- Assist in coordinating post-launch evaluation to validate that products work for customers or colleagues as designed.
- Collaborate with other product teams and 3rd parties to launch new product features.
- Champion the needs of our customers and colleagues, using insight from multiple data sources to support value-led prioritisation.
- Monitor relevant industry trends and engage with internal teams to build shared insight.
How I Will Succeed
- Bridge the gap between business and technical stakeholders, ensuring alignment on architecture, integration, and delivery priorities, with guidance from senior colleagues.
- Apply insight, data, and research to ensure your team is focused on making a difference for customers and the business, as defined by agreed product metrics (OKRs).
- Build collaborative relationships with engineering and product teams to solve problems for our customers and the business.
- Engage and motivate people with a variety of perspectives around the roadmap for your product, supporting open and constructive conversations.
What We’re Looking For
- Experience in a technical, product, or business analyst role.
- Ability to drive efficient and effective product processes (e.g., agile ceremonies, documentation).
- Strong customer empathy and ability to translate business requirements into clear user stories and sprint goals.
- Technically curious and eager to learn from senior colleagues and the broader product community.
- You’re here to learn – there’s lots to absorb. Plus, we’re a big product community so you can hone your product skills here too.
- You’re courageous and understand that failing forward isn’t really failing at all. You’ll work with the team to weigh up the data and risks to try new and exciting solutions.
- A people person. You’ll build great relationships. We need people who want to help us build a brilliant team culture and make Sainsbury’s a great place to work.
- If you have experience of working with price and promotions, data services and product attribution then that’s the icing on the cake. We’d love to hear from you.
