Senior Product Manager – Healthtech (Contract)
A people first consultancy is working with a fast-moving healthtech organisation is looking for a hands-on Senior Product Manager to lead a critical delivery phase for a new healthcare app, working across private and public health systems. This is a short, intense contract for someone who can drop into a complex domain, make sense of messy inputs, and drive a proof of concept through to launch.
The contract
* Start: Early January (ASAP preferred)
* Length: 3 months (January–March) with potential to extend
* Day rate: £600-£640 per day (outside IR35)
* Location: Remote (some UK/Ireland healthcare stakeholder timezones)
We need somone who has this specific domain and project experience. You must have worked taking a healthtech app from product market fit to customer launch in the Uk if you do not have the exact experience you will not be contacted or hear back- apologies this one is niche and on a time crunch so we cannot be flexible on experience.
The project
* Own product delivery for a patient-facing health app that brings together:
* Private healthcare journeys
* Irish public healthcare touchpoints
* Insurance and claims processes
* Work from existing business requirements to shape and deliver a proof of concept for mid-January, then drive towards a launch targeted for May.
* Collaborate with a third-party development team, internal operational leaders and specialist clinical/tech advisors (including cardiology experts).
* Operate in a low-documentation environment: make sense of fragments, create just-enough structure, and keep everyone aligned on what needs to happen when.
What you’ll be doing
* Lead end-to-end delivery for a critical product stream, turning business requirements into a clear, actionable product plan and backlog.
* Work closely with operations, clinical stakeholders and external advisors to quickly absorb domain knowledge across private care, cardiology pathways, and insurance flows.
* Coordinate with a third-party dev team to ensure scope, priorities and timelines are understood, realistic and focused on delivering a usable POC and then a robust launch.
* Connect multiple systems and journeys, including:
* Public health / national apps (e.g. NHS-style apps, EHR/EHS integrations)
* Hospital and clinic systems (EHR/ERP, including finance modules and queuing/workflow tools)
* Private medical insurance and claims processes (including Meditech-style integrations).
* Bring clarity where documentation is thin: define user journeys, edge cases and acceptance criteria so engineers and stakeholders are confident in what’s being built.
* Track progress against key dates (POC by mid-January, launch by May), managing risks, dependencies and trade-offs openly.
Experience we’re looking for
* Senior Product Manager with strong experience in:
* Private healthcare apps and/or digital care platforms.
* Public healthcare integrations (e.g. NHS-style apps, EHR/EHS, hospital ERP).
* Insurance and claims journeys, ideally including medical insurance and Meditech or similar systems.
* Comfortable working with third-party development partners and internal stakeholders to deliver under tight timelines.
* Proven ability to operate in low-process, low-documentation environments and still ship reliably.
* Strong communicator who can translate between operations, clinicians, insurers and engineers, and keep everyone focused on the next outcome.
If you’ve led similar healthtech integrations and can jump straight into a January start, this contract offers a high-impact, well-paid opportunity to ship something meaningful in a short space of time.
