Right to Work is live in stores through My Tesco today, with absence, recruitment and Central Europe following - around 1.5 million documents a year and nine business areas in the demand pipeline.\nThis is a genuinely end-to-end role and you will own it. You will set the longer-term platform strategy and run the day-to-day backlog with engineers in Kraków. You will shape the frontend experience managers and colleagues actually use, and you will onboard teams across the business onto it.\nWhat is in it for you\nSalary\nUoP 18 000 - 24 000 PLN gross/month\nHybrid working\n\nWe know life looks a little different for each of us. That’s why at Tesco, we always welcome chats about different flexible working options. Some people are at the start of their careers, some want the freedom to do the things they love. Others are going through life-changing moments like becoming a carer, adapting to parenthood, or something else. So, talk to us throughout your application about how we can support.\nThis role requires you to be based in or near Kraków, as you will spend 60% (3 days) of your week collaborating with colleagues at our office locations or local sites and the rest remotely.\nOur benefits\nTesco is a diverse and exciting employer, dedicated to being #aplacetogeton, providing career-defining opportunities to all of our colleagues.

proficiency with Jira, Confluence, Aha!\nAdvanced stakeholder management across engineering, compliance and operations, senior leadership, and external partners\nSuperior prioritisation and time management with a value-based approach\nMethodical, analytical problem-solving from first principles\nQuick domain/product area learning capability - colleague documentation is a detailed, regulated domain\nStrong presentation and persuasion abilities, particularly when saying no to a request that would compromise the platform\nCollaborative team player mentality across a distributed UK and Kraków team\nOwnership, responsiveness, and commitment to assigned work\nDecisive decision-making under competing priorities and trade-offs\nAgile expertise including user stories and acceptance criteria\nStrong interpersonal skills; ability to earn team respect and trust\n\nExperience Needed:\n5+ years Product Management experience in agile/scrum environments, including ownership of a product or capability end to end\nExperience of a shared platform, internal capability or global component consumed by other product teams - where your users are other teams as well as end users (highly preferred)\nA track record of setting product strategy and then delivering against it, not one or the other\nExperience influencing senior stakeholders without direct authority, and holding a position under pressure\nDomain expertise in relevant functional areas/complex domains;
