Hours: 35 Hours, Full Time

Salary: £45,090 to £47,181 Per Annum (Inclusive of London Supplement)

We’re looking for a Senior Product Manager (14-month maternity cover) to take the lead on a portfolio of Individual Giving products at the Royal British Legion. This is a key role within our Supporter Development team, focused on driving income, improving supporter journeys, and ensuring the successful delivery of high-quality campaigns that support our long-term fundraising goals.

Come and be part of the leading Armed Forces charity, making a difference to the lives of those who have served to keep us safe and protect our way of life.

You’ll work closely with colleagues across Fundraising, Data, Insight, Marketing, Digital, and Finance to develop strategies, shape supporter experiences, and oversee the performance of several key income streams. This includes managing significant budgets, monitoring results, and identifying areas for growth and innovation. You’ll bring strong analytical thinking and leadership skills, along with experience of managing complex projects and working with both internal teams and external agencies.

We’re looking for someone who’s confident making decisions, able to influence at all levels, and comfortable working in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.
