🏢 About Buildscout
Buildscout was founded with a clear mission: to empower property and construction professionals by transforming planning application data into valuable business opportunities.
Backed by Searchland, the UK’s leading B2B PropTech company, Buildscout is at an exciting stage of growth. Our platform combines data, technology, and insight to help professionals uncover and act on opportunities faster and more intelligently.
We’re now looking for a Product Manager to take Buildscout to the next level – shaping strategy, refining our roadmap, collaborating across teams, and ensuring we deliver exceptional value to our users. You’ll work closely with our Senior Full Stack Engineer, Commercial Director, and Searchland’s CEO to drive impact and build the future of our product.

* Build a structured feedback loop with Customer Success and Design to inform product decisions.

Decision Making & Leadership
* Know when to push back, when to adapt, and how to balance competing perspectives.
* Keep the team aligned, informed, and moving in the same direction.
🌟 You Are:
