Technical Product Owner – Manchester

Location: Manchester (Hybrid)
Salary: £75,000 - £85,000 + Benefits

About Our Client

Our client is an established SaaS organisation modernising a suite of business-critical software products. Continued investment in its platform has created an opportunity for an experienced Technical Product Owner to join a growing product and engineering function.

The Role

You will sit at the intersection of Product and Engineering, helping translate business and customer requirements into well-defined technical deliverables. You will own and prioritise the engineering backlog, support technical discovery and ensure development teams have the clarity required to deliver effectively.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own and prioritise the product and technical backlog.
  • Translate business requirements into user stories and acceptance criteria.
  • Work closely with Software Engineers, Architects and QA teams.
  • Support sprint planning, refinement, reviews and release planning.
  • Balance new functionality with technical debt and platform improvements.
  • Coordinate dependencies across engineering teams and systems.
  • Engage stakeholders to clarify requirements and manage expectations.
  • Use product and delivery data to improve prioritisation and outcomes.

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.
