Career Opportunity: Lead Digital Product Owner

This is an exciting leadership opportunity for a seasoned digital product professional to shape the future of our front-office, colleague-facing digital capabilities. If you're passionate about driving innovation, fostering collaboration, and making a tangible impact within a complex, regulated environment, this role offers a compelling career path.

Key Advantages for Candidates:

  • Strategic Impact: Play a pivotal role in defining and executing the product vision for critical digital capabilities that directly empower our colleagues. You'll have the opportunity to own the consolidated digital roadmap, ensuring it aligns with overarching business strategy and client needs.
  • Leadership & Team Growth: Lead and mentor a team of talented digital product owners, cultivating an environment that champions collaboration, creativity, and high performance. This is a chance to develop your leadership skills and build a high-achieving team.
  • Data-Driven Culture: Contribute to embedding a robust culture of data-driven decision-making throughout the product lifecycle. You'll be instrumental in utilizing quantitative and qualitative techniques to inform strategic choices and optimize for time-to-value.
  • Complex Problem Solving: Navigate and influence within a sophisticated application landscape, making impactful technology decisions. This role demands strong analytical and decision-making skills, offering significant professional development in complex environments.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with diverse, cross-functional teams including UX, Service Design, Engineering, and Architecture. This collaborative approach ensures holistic product development and fosters a culture of innovation and experimentation.

  • Career Progression: This role offers clear pathways for growth, with expectations for significant input into function-wide strategic initiatives, policy influence, and the management of complex, critical projects.

Key Considerations for Your Career Path:

  • Proven Delivery Experience: A strong track record of successfully delivering both "0-to-1" (new) and scaled digital products is essential. Experience in a regulated industry will be highly advantageous.
  • Technology Acumen: While deep software engineering expertise isn't required, a strong level of technical literacy and comfort in participating in and navigating technical discussions is crucial for effective leadership.
  • Stakeholder Management: The ability to effectively manage diverse stakeholders across various departments and levels is paramount. This role involves influencing decisions and building consensus.
  • Agile Methodologies: Experience and comfort working within agile frameworks and managing priorities across multiple digital squads are expected.
  • Human-Centred Design: Familiarity with UX, Service Design, Human-Centred Design, and Design Thinking approaches will be key to developing products that truly meet user needs.
  • Strategic Thinking: You'll need to demonstrate a clear ability to develop and own a product strategy that aligns with business objectives and addresses market opportunities.

This role is ideal for an experienced product leader who thrives in dynamic environments, enjoys mentoring teams, and is driven by the opportunity to create impactful digital solutions. If you are looking to elevate your career and contribute to significant strategic initiatives within a leading financial institution, we encourage you to explore this opportunity.
