Data Product Owner (SaaS)
Location: Leeds (Hybrid: 2–3 days per week in-office)
Salary: Up to £60,000 basic
Reporting to: Head of Data
A global SaaS innovator is looking for a commercially minded, value-driven Data Product Owner to take charge of a complex product roadmap and transform a massive backlog into high-impact deliverables.
Working closely with global clients and technical data squads, you will bridge the gap between deep technical capability and clear commercial return.
The Mission
Your focus is straightforward: cut through the noise, ruthlessly prioritize, and deliver immediate and long-term value. You won’t just manage tickets. You will shape the product vision, validate feature requests directly with clients, and ensure the engineering team builds the right solutions at pace.
Key Responsibilities
- Value-Driven Prioritization: Triage, refine, and structure a massive backlog, mapping every feature directly to measurable business and client value.
- Roadmap Ownership: Collaborate directly with the Head of Data and executive stakeholders to define, adapt, and execute a transparent product roadmap.
- Client & Stakeholder Engagement: Act as the primary technical voice for external enterprise clients, translating complex requirements into actionable user stories and clear release plans.
- Agile Execution: Lead sprint planning, grooming, stand-ups, and retrospectives within a dynamic, fast-paced data and software engineering environment.
- Metric Definition: Define and track product success metrics (KPIs/OKRs) to validate feature adoption and ROI post-launch.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
