• Lead product discovery to identify opportunities, validate ideas and ensure we solve the right customer problems.
• Partner with Product Owners, Engineering, UX, Data and Commercial teams to deliver high-quality digital experiences using agile ways of working.
• Prioritise initiatives that maximise customer value and commercial performance while balancing technical and operational considerations.
• Establish and track product OKRs and KPIs, using analytics, customer research and experimentation to drive continuous improvement.
• Remove delivery obstacles, support effective decision-making and help teams maintain focus on delivering value.
• Coach and mentor Product Owners, helping develop product capability and foster a collaborative, high-performing culture.
• Build trusted relationships across the business, influencing senior leaders and aligning stakeholders around product priorities.

• Confidence using customer insight, analytics and experimentation to inform decisions.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence at senior leadership level.
