Everyone belongs at OVO:

At OVO, we are on a mission to solve one of humanity's biggest challenges, the climate crisis. And we know it takes all of us to change the world. That's why we need diverse people from all abilities, gender identities, ethnicities, ages, sexual orientations, life experiences and backgrounds to join us.

Teamworking for the planet:

Everything we do here spins around Plan Zero. So, naturally, the team you’ll be joining plays a gigantic role in making that happen.

This role in a nutshell:

As a Staff Product Manager at OVO, you will be a central leader, steering the product vision, strategy and roadmap for a specific portfolio. Your role involves collaboration across teams and using data to prioritise efforts for the best strategic results. We need your blend of strategic insight, analytical depth and strong leadership to define product direction using data and OVO's business strategy. You'll play a crucial part in making data-informed product decisions that enhance portfolio performance and drive OVO's success.

We are currently hiring for 2 Staff Product Manager roles within our Product and Tech team - one role will sit within our AER Pod (Attract, Engage & Retain), and the other role will sit within our BPC Pod (Bill, Pay, Collect).

Your key outcomes will be:

  • Data-Informed Portfolio Strategy: Define and execute a comprehensive product strategy within the assigned portfolio, leveraging data insights and business strategy to drive optimal outcomes (commercial and customer).
  • Strategic Outcome Optimization: Utilize insights and analytics to drive decision-making, ensuring that product initiatives are consistently aligned with and optimized for strategic business outcomes.
  • Product Direction Leadership: Define and communicate clear product direction using data insights and business strategy, ensuring alignment across cross-functional teams and stakeholders.
  • Mentorship and Strategic Development: Mentor and support Product Managers on strategy, execution, and customer-centric thinking, fostering a culture of data-driven decision-making and strategic product development within the portfolio.
  • Shape and Deliver Portfolio Strategy: Define and drive a clear product strategy for your portfolio, ensuring it aligns with OVO's business goals and market insights.
  • Champion Data-Informed Decisions: Use data analytics to uncover insights, guide product development, and measure success against key performance indicators (KPIs).
  • Lead Collaborative Product Development: Guide cross-functional teams (product, engineering, design, marketing, sales) to effectively deliver on the product vision and priorities.
  • Engage and Influence Stakeholders: Build strong relationships with senior leaders, presenting strategic recommendations and ensuring alignment on product direction and investment.
  • Contribute to OVO's Product Community: Actively participate in and enrich our Community of Practice by sharing knowledge, leading discussions, and helping to advance our collective product craft.

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.
