About Police Digital Service
PDS has established a Managed Services Directorate to ensure it meets its responsibilities to deliver National IT systems to UK Policing, and one of the core pillars of this Directorate will be the Product Management function. The objectives of this function are to ensure that products are fit for purpose, cost effective and meet the needs of all policing stakeholders.
We are seeking a skilled and customer-oriented Product Manager to join our Product Management team, with specific focus on the provision of managed Microsoft Azure and M365 environments.
You will play a pivotal role in the product development process as well as the operational ‘run’ for Microsoft capabilities, delivering for both internal and external stakeholders across UK Policing.
The role of Product Manager will involve working as part of a team providing remote support to project and customers.
In this fully remote role, you will have the flexibility to work from anywhere within the UK and manage your own schedule, and routine tasks need to be completed with limited supervision.
The role will report to the Product Lead, but currently this role is awaiting being filled. The successful applicant will report to Head of Product Management in the interim.
