This is a mid-level Product Owner role with a strong focus on getting things shipped. You’ll spend most of your time making sure the team is working on the right things at the right time — prioritising work, planning sprints, and keeping delivery moving smoothly across product, design, and engineering.
You’ll be hands‑on with defining features and requirements, turning business and customer needs into clear, ready‑to‑build tickets. While you’ll have some involvement in strategy and research, this role is mainly about execution and delivery.
What you’ll be doing
* Leading sprint planning across design and development (with support from engineering leads)
* Running prioritisation sessions to keep the team focused on the highest‑value work
* Owning and maintaining the product backlog — keeping it tidy, prioritised, and up to date
* Writing clear, practical tickets and requirements for development and QA
* Facilitating refinement sessions so work is well understood before it’s picked up
* Doing the analysis needed to shape new features from idea to delivery‑ready
* Pulling together input from researchers, analysts, and other stakeholders to create clear requirements
* Joining client‑facing meetings and confidently talking through product decisions and progress
Additional things you may get involved in
* Helping shape the product roadmap (inputting and refining rather than owning it end‑to‑end)
* Writing design briefs to support UX and UI work
* Supporting customer research and usability testing
* Coordinating and assisting with user testing activity
Nice to have
* Experience with tools like Airtable (or similar)
* Background in a start‑up or scale‑up environment where things aren’t always crystal clear
* Experience with content management systems
* Familiarity with analytics tools like Amplitude or Mixpanel
Potentially useful experience
* Webflow
* Line management of designers or research resources
What this role is really about
* Strong ownership of delivery and execution
* Clearly defining features so teams can build with confidence
* Coordinating well across product, design, engineering, and stakeholders
* Supporting product strategy and research — without being the main driver
