Job description

Technical Product Owner

Manchester City Centre

SaaS Start-Up

Are you a Technical Product Owner looking to work with one of Manchester's fastest growing scale-ups? This innovative start‑up is transforming the events and ticketing industry with their SaaS platform, generating over £25M in their first year and aiming to double next year.

Due to this incredible trajectory, they are massively scaling their teams, starting with a Product Owner to further enhance their current function. You’ll be working with the Head of Product, contribution to the creation, design and development of their portfolio including both established products and next generation SaaS offerings.

What you’ll be doing as their Technical Product Owner:

• Shape the product vision and roadmap alongside the Head of Product
• Work on next-gen SaaS products and improve existing platforms
• Collaborate with talented engineers, UX, and stakeholders to turn ideas into reality
• Influence architecture, APIs, integrations, and platform scalability
• Track success with KPIs, metrics, and measurable impact

They’re looking for someone who:

• Understands Agile/Scrum/Kanban and the full SDLC

• Knows how to prioritise backlogs, manage dependencies, and tackle technical debt
• Can read technical specs or code to make informed product decisions

Salary is up to £50k + an ever growing benefits package, with one of the best perks being free tickets to sold out events (Anyone fancy FREE tickets to that sold out gig, Manchester Derby, or something similar? I’m not joking either!)

This role will suit a Product Owner coming from a technical or SaaS background looking to put their stamp on a software platform which is revolutionising their sector. There genuinely isn’t an opportunity like this in the North West to join a start-up which has this level of impact on their industry!
