At AXA, our mission is to deliver innovative, customer-centric products that support our transformation journey and drive business growth. Our Product Management team plays a pivotal role in shaping the future of our digital ecosystem, ensuring products are scalable, secure, and aligned with our strategic objectives.
As a Product Management Lead, you’ll define and evolve our product vision, strategy, and roadmap in line with AXA’s business priorities and transformation goals.

Your strategic leadership and expertise will be critical in driving continuous value and stakeholder engagement.
At AXA we work smart, empowering our people to balance their time between home and the office in a way that works best for them, their team and our customers. You'll work at least two days a week (40%) away from home, moving to three days a week (60%) in the future. Away from home means either attendance at one of our office locations, visiting clients or attending industry events.

* Define and evolve the product vision, strategy, and roadmap, aligning with AXA’s business priorities and transformation ambitions
* Translate strategic intent into tangible outcomes, overseeing end-to-end product lifecycle management including delivery, optimisation, and retirement

* Lead and motivate a team of Product Owners, ensuring alignment across squads and continuous delivery of high-value outcomes
* Partner with design, engineering, and architecture teams to ensure products are scalable, secure, and user-centric
* Act as the primary decision-maker on product scope, trade-offs, and investments, balancing stakeholder expectations and customer needs
* Define and monitor OKRs, success metrics, and adoption rates to gauge performance and foster continuous improvement
* Manage risks, dependencies, and change impacts proactively across product and delivery landscapes
