Job Description
Product Owner | Hybrid working | Somerset-based Head Office
Are you a Product Owner who thrives at the intersection of technology and business value? We're recruiting on behalf of a well-known, fast-paced retail organisation looking for an experienced Product Owner to take ownership of a critical technology domain and help shape the future of their digital and operational platforms.
The Opportunity
This is a high-impact role sitting within a large-scale technology programme, where you'll own and drive the vision, roadmap, and delivery of an assigned product area. You'll lead a cross-functional team to deliver prioritised outcomes at pace, balancing time, quality, and value, while enabling stable ERP delivery and continuous improvement across the business.
You'll work closely with a Product Manager and a wide range of business and technology stakeholders, translating complex priorities into clear, actionable backlogs and delivering solutions that make a real difference to customers and colleagues alike.
What You'll Be Doing
* Owning the end-to-end product vision, roadmap, and backlog for your domain, keeping everything aligned to business strategy and programme objectives
* Building strong relationships with stakeholders across business and technology to understand priorities, dependencies, and constraints
* Collaborating with internal teams and third-party partners to shape and deliver integrated solutions across the value stream
* Driving backlog refinement, sprint planning, and release management alongside Delivery Leads and engineering teams
* Defining feature propositions and MVPs that deliver value quickly and safely
* Working closely with Solution Architects to align product direction with the target technical vision — understanding and managing technical trade-offs confidently
* Tracking and communicating outcome-based metrics, benefits realisation, and delivery progress to stakeholders
* Balancing delivery momentum with platform stability, including prioritising defect resolution
What We're Looking For
* Proven product management experience delivering IT-related change within a logistics or retail environment
* Solid understanding of agile working practices and product methodology
* Confident communicator and influencer who can operate effectively across a matrix, cross-functional organisation
* Comfortable managing technical complexity alongside business value in prioritisation decisions
* Analytical mindset with strong IT literacy
* A natural collaborator with excellent networking and stakeholder management skills at all levels
* Retail industry experience is desirable but not essential — what matters most is your ability to build, engage, and lead using robust product methodology.
The Culture
This organisation values accountability, agility, and customer-first thinking. You'll be joining a team that takes ownership, champions the customer experience, and isn't afraid to bring fresh ideas to the table.
