Experience within the Insurance or Reinsurance industry is highly desirable
Bristol (Hybrid 2-3 days a week in the office)
£50,000 - £60,000 + 10% pension, private medical, life assurance, plus much more!
I'm currently working with a highly innovative, tech‑led analytics business operating within the insurance and risk space. They are looking to appoint an experienced Product Owner to join their growing team in Bristol.
This is a unique opportunity for someone who enjoys working at the intersection of technology, data and business operations within a fast‑paced, collaborative environment. The role sits across multiple teams and stakeholders, offering the chance to make a genuine impact on product delivery, operational efficiency and data‑driven decision making.
Unlike a traditional Product Owner role focused purely on software development, this position involves working closely with Data Scientists, Software Engineers, Underwriters and senior leadership teams to oversee complex data flows and business‑critical processes end‑to‑end.
The Role
You will be responsible for coordinating and managing multiple workstreams across technical and operational teams, ensuring delivery priorities are aligned with wider business objectives. The successful candidate will be comfortable operating autonomously, managing stakeholder expectations and driving collaboration across a broad and diverse group of teams.
Key Responsibilities
* Manage and coordinate cross‑functional teams of up to 50 people across Data Science, Engineering and Underwriting
* Oversee end‑to‑end product and data pipeline workflows
* Work closely with senior stakeholders and business leadership teams
* Drive delivery priorities, sprint planning and workflow management
* Produce and interpret analytical and operational reports using tools such as Excel and Tableau
* Ensure effective collaboration between technical and non‑technical teams
* Support process improvement and operational efficiency initiatives
Skills & Experience Required
* 5+ years’ experience working as a Product Owner
* Strong experience working with Jira and Confluence
* Experience managing cross‑functional technical teams
* Good understanding of data flows, analytics and stakeholder management
* Comfortable working within fast‑paced, evolving environments
* Strong communication and organisational skills
Highly Desirable
* Experience within the Insurance or Reinsurance industry
* Experience working with Data Scientists and Software Engineers
* Technical background or strong technical understanding
* Exposure to analytics, modelling or data‑led environments
This is an excellent opportunity to join a growing and highly respected business that is investing heavily in technology, analytics and innovation. The environment is collaborative, entrepreneurial and ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex operational and technical challenges.
