Head of product/ founding Product member
Hybrid (3 days in the office) | Up to 0.3% Equity
About the Role
Join a mission-led team transforming social care in the UK. The platform connects private care businesses and care workers, automates immigration compliance, and delivers a fresh onboarding experience. The goal is to solve complex regulatory challenges, support talent acquisition, and drive meaningful change in a sector ready for disruption.
The Opportunity
This is the first product hire, joining with a mandate to deliver growth and shape the evolving product roadmap. Work directly with the CEO, CTO, and engineering team who’ve kept the platform moving. The role offers a fast track to CPO for those who excel and innovate. You need to have seen an early stage start-up from boot-strapped/ series A to success and ready to do the same again.
You'll be building out a team but work as an IC while you get your feet under the table. It's a huge chance for someone who has dreamed of seeing a company grow and be apart of the C-suit team who help the CEO do it.
What You’ll Do
* Own product discovery, definition, and delivery for a fast-growing care-job marketplace, HR/compliance tools, and onboarding flows.
* Work to create a product led culture and growth mentality to head to the first round of funding and beyond
* Engage with customers on both sides, uncover pain points, and translate compliance needs into simple, engaging workflows.
* Collaborate tightly with engineering, leveraging your expertise in platforms, integrations, and product-led growth.
* Prioritise and break high-level strategy into actionable sprints and story tickets using Scrum.
* Upsell: Identify opportunities to upsell new platform features to existing clients and generate new revenue streams through innovative product enhancements and market intelligence.
* Use data thoughtfully: Leverage technical skills and data insight to understand client needs, user journeys, and the broader social care landscape-then turn data into creative, disruptive solutions.
* Thrive when direction changes rapidly; bring structure but remain flexible and responsive.
* Infuse every product decision with commercial thinking, targeting both short-term and long-term business value.
* Stay hands-on and collaborative: challenge and be challenged, always informed by insight.
* Ensure compliance and empathy: work with regulators, adapt to immigration changes, and put the people behind every product decision.
About You
* Motivated by purpose and real social impact.
* Strong blend of technical and commercial acumen-you can see the big-picture and you deliver fast.
* Experience in two-sided marketplaces, job boards, compliance-heavy SaaS, or HR tech.
* Data-driven and inventive: you use data not just to report, but to create actionable value for users and the business.
* Effective at identifying upsell opportunities and driving new revenue streams from existing product features.
* Ambition for progression and excited by the Head of Product path.
* Comfortable with ambiguity, rapid change, and non-linear challenges.
* Great communicator with empathy for care workers and end-users.
