Join us as a Data Product Manager at Barclays, where you'll play a key role in transforming our data foundations as part of the BUK Data Foundations Program. Supporting the Business Banking domain, you'll oversee feature teams building cloud-based data products and delivering reporting solutions that enable us to move away from legacy systems like BIW. While you won’t be directly involved in technical delivery, you'll be instrumental in leading and motivating cross-functional teams, managing priorities and backlogs, allocating resources, and ensuring stakeholder needs are translated into high-value outcomes. This is a unique opportunity to help reset our data landscape and drive real change across the bank.

To be successful in this role, you will need the following:

• Strong understanding of data concepts.
• Product management experience, including workflow organisation.
• Effective stakeholder engagement and communication.
• Proactive, driven, and motivational leadership.
• Ability to manage backlogs and prioritise work across teams.

Some Other Highly Valued Skills May Include

• Agile delivery experience.
• Familiarity with Jira.
• Understanding of the Business Banking domain.

You may be assessed on key skills such as risk and controls, change and transformation, business acumen, strategic thinking, digital and technology, as well as job-specific technical skills.
