The Opportunity:

Are you passionate about driving innovation through technical excellence? We are seeking a dynamic and experienced Product Manager to support business critical technical initiatives. You'll play a crucial role in leading and delivering high-impact features, harnessing your deep understanding of technology.

As a Senior Product Manager specialising in technical projects, you'll serve as the conduit between our engineering team and stakeholders, driving the vision, strategy, and execution of our initiatives. Your expertise will guide the development process, ensuring alignment between technical feasibility, and business objectives.

Key Accountabilities:

Your role as a Software Product Manager will be to work extensively with various departments across NCC Group globally to:

• Consistently deliver high-quality, easily understood Product Requirements, which consider customer needs, application context and engineering principles.
• Motivate and lead a dedicated team of engineers, designers, architects and QA Testers
• Be the voice of the customer - Gathering, reviewing, and prioritising feedback to drive continual service and process improvement.

Specifically, you will:

• Confidently and clearly communicate with internal and external stakeholders/teams at various levels, articulating product & team progress, focus and direction of travel.
• Install rigorous and persistent prioritisation and re-prioritisation methods across your product backlog and roadmap, predicting and responding to scenarios that arise during product development.
• Accurately assess the realistic business and customer value behind new and existing ideas that come up during the product development.

• Assess & Decide: We don’t need you to be an engineering expert, or to have worked in this specific industry before, but we do need you to possess the ability to quickly assess the technical feasibility, relative cost and risks around solution options, and make good, informed decisions you can stand behind and evidence with data.
• Process Pro & Eye for Detail: You should hold excellent process analysis and mapping skills and want nothing more than to uncover all the detail involved with a requirement in order to distil into the pertinent information your team requires.
• All about Agile: Demonstratable knowledge of Agile development processes is desired – but we also require you to be adaptable to change, particularly where there are varying levels of process adoption, we want you to embrace difference and fundamentally deliver.
• Confident Communicator: Holding a strong ability to clearly communicate with and manage broad stakeholders across multiple departments and geographies is critical to the success of the role.
