The role combines product leadership, agile delivery, stakeholder management, and emerging technology adoption, with a particular focus on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its application within digital services.

This is a highly client-facing consulting role where you will be trusted to shape product direction, challenge thinking, and ensure delivery teams generate measurable value for users and organisations.

Travel Requirement:

Candidates can pick a base office location out of London, Manchester, Bristol, Newcastle, or Glasgow. Travel frequency can range from remote to monthly/fortnightly dependant on the client request, and candidates must be flexible.

Agile Delivery

• Lead agile ceremonies including sprint planning, backlog refinement, sprint reviews and retrospectives.
• Foster collaboration across multidisciplinary teams and create an environment of continuous improvement.
• Support adjacent delivery activities where required within a cross-functional squad model.
• Help teams remain focused on delivering meaningful outcomes rather than simply completing outputs.

AI & Innovation (Essential Focus Area)

• Identify opportunities to leverage AI and Generative AI technologies to improve user experiences, operational efficiency and business outcomes.
• Collaborate with AI, data and engineering specialists to define and prioritise AI-enabled products, features and experiments.
• Translate AI use cases into product requirements, user stories and measurable success criteria.
• Support the design, testing and validation of AI-powered solutions through prototypes, pilots and live service improvements.
• Act as an advocate for responsible and practical AI adoption within client organisations.
• Stay current with developments in Generative AI, Large Language Models (LLMs), AI-assisted workflows and emerging AI product practices.

• Ability to manage and prioritise complex backlogs and competing stakeholder requirements.
• Strong stakeholder management, facilitation and communication skills.
• Experience working with multidisciplinary teams across business, design and technology functions.
• Experience defining user stories, acceptance criteria and product requirements.
• Ability to make product decisions based on business value, customer outcomes and delivery considerations.
• Experience operating within complex, regulated, or security-conscious environments.

• Ability to identify, evaluate and prioritise AI opportunities that deliver measurable business and user value.
• Comfort working alongside AI, data and engineering specialists to deliver AI-powered capabilities.

Highly Desirable

• Experience working within consulting, professional services or client-facing environments.
• Agile, Scrum, Product Management or SAFe certifications.

Ideal Candidate

This role would suit someone who combines the mindset of a Product Manager with the delivery focus of a Product Owner and the commercial awareness of a consultant.

You will be comfortable operating in client-facing environments, leading agile teams, making product decisions, and helping organisations understand how AI can be used to solve genuine business and user problems. AI is not a peripheral aspect of this role - it is a core area of focus and an increasingly important component of the transformation programmes you will support.
