About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Own the product vision and roadmap for your goals. Ground both in qualitative and quantitative evidence, and build genuine understanding and buy-in from leadership and Heads of Department.
Systematically explore multiple problems and solutions before committing to a direction. Use a range of discovery techniques - user research, in-product experiments, trapdoor tests, technical PoCs - to pressure-test assumptions and identify what will make the most impact.
Do whatever it takes to ship work that achieves your goals. That means leadership and persuasion when you need others to move and rolling up your sleeves when you don't - whether that's data analysis, project management, product marketing, or talking directly to customers.
Define the metrics that best track impact for your goals, including baselines and targets where applicable. Develop deep expertise in the data available to you - product analytics, commercial data - including its definitions, caveats, and limits. Use it to make sharper decisions.
Become the company's go-to expert on your users, your market, and your product. Regularly watch sales and customer success calls, read customer feedback, interview users, and keep a close eye on competitors and market trends.
Actively contribute to improving how the product team works - bringing ideas from your own experience and from the wider product community. Take ownership of improvements rather than waiting to be asked.
Build strong working relationships with teams across engineering, learning, and commercial. Seek out their expertise early and often - not as stakeholder management, but because it makes the product better.
Actively experiment with how AI can improve what you build and how you work. Bring a point of view, take ownership of trying new approaches, and stay closely engaged with how the space is developing.

Strong analytical skills, with experience defining success metrics and using product analytics and commercial data to drive prioritisation and evaluate outcomes.
A natural collaborator who builds trusted relationships across engineering, commercial, and other teams - and knows how to turn stakeholder input into better product decisions.
Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to write crisp problem statements and evidence summaries that land with any audience.
