Product Manager - Near Edinburgh - Circa 80K plus Bonus
Hybrid – 2/3 days in office per week plus international travel a few times per year
Lorien’s longstanding client based near Edinburgh, a leader in their industry with an award-winning product line making a huge difference around the globe, is looking for a Product Manager well versed in regulated settings and technical product delivery to join their team. The role focuses on the company's core, globally distributed product portfolio and this role will have an impact on a wide scale involving occasional travel (a few times per year) to contacts in the US, Asia and mainland Europe.
This is a senior role responsible for owning the commercial outcome of regulated, complex products end-to-end: turning clinical and market insight into a roadmap, keeping delivery on track across several departments, and making sure nothing ships without the right regulatory signoffs.
Role overview:
Roadmap and requirements:
- Shape the product roadmap in partnership with senior leadership, balancing company priorities against regional demand and commercial targets
- Turn clinical, customer and market signals into requirements documents that the business can actually build against, including the harder calls on what gets cut
- Keep plans current as scope, risk or new information shifts, rather than treating the roadmap as fixed once written
Delivery and governance:
- Pull together the right people from engineering, quality, operations, service and commercial functions for each release, and keep them aligned day to day
- Own the backlog and release-readiness process, applying the organisation's formal product commercialisation framework rather than working around it
- Spot risk early, whether it's technical-/regulatory-/security-/supply-related, and either fix it or get it in front of the right person fast

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Commercial and regulatory input:
- Build and track budgets for your products, including cost-to-completion visibility, and prioritise spend accordingly
- Bring enough commercial fluency (margins, revenue mechanics, pricing levers) to hold your own in business-case discussions with Finance and Commercial
- Feed accurate input into regulatory and legal paperwork, such as change-impact assessments and labelling, working closely with RA/QA rather than owning that expertise yourself
Stakeholders and continuous improvement:
- Be the clear voice on what's happening, why, and when, for both internal teams and external stakeholders
- Translate customer conversations into product positioning and a case for why your solution wins against alternatives
- Use field feedback and real-world usage data to keep pushing usability and satisfaction forward, even after launch
- Run meetings that end with clear owners, decisions and next steps rather than open threads
What we're looking for:
- A degree in a technical or business subject, or equivalent track record (and a product or project management qualification would be preferable but not necessary)
- A track record of hands-on technical product management and delivery, including oversight across the entire product lifecycle including concept stages and vision, performance, workflow, end user consideration, and more
- Good relationship management skills with stakeholders and ideally other contacts such as distributors, etc.
- Comfortable prioritising when the pressure is on, and confident presenting to both internal leadership and external partners/customers
- Able to ask sharp, technically credible questions rather than taking specs at face value and comfort speaking with technical teams with credibility gained through previous work
- A natural, relatable collaborator who can get buy-in from people who don't report to you, from senior management down
- Strong written and spoken communication, and the resilience to keep plans on track when priorities shift
