• Track, measure, and report project performance to stakeholders and leadership, working with the appropriate stakeholders to assign the appropriate metrics.
• Design and maintain comprehensive project documentation and reporting processes.
• Work with executive management on regular project prioritisation efforts.
• Design and implement prioritisation practices that combine agile & traditional waterfall methodologies, in order to improve cross-team efficiency & planning.

Technical Product Management

• Lead technical requirements gathering sessions with stakeholders, users, and engineering teams.
• Translate business needs into clear, actionable functional and technical specifications.
• Collaborate with developers, designers, and QA teams to ensure requirements are implemented accurately.
• Evaluate technical feasibility of proposed solutions and advise on alternatives when necessary.

• Demonstrated expertise in technical requirements gathering and translating them into actionable deliverables.
• Experience working with cross-functional teams in both UK/EU and US business environments.
• Proficiency with PMI waterfall and Agile/SCRUM frameworks; certifications such as PMP, CSM & CSPO are preferred.
• Excellent organizational skills, attention to detail, and ability to manage multiple priorities.
