Product Development jobs in United Kingdom

From a bold idea to revolutionising dog food, Years has grown into a fast-scaling business dedicated to helping dogs live longer, healthier lives. In just 3 years, we've built a great start-up serving thousands of happy customers, all while striving to achieve our mission. Our goal? To give dog owners a better, fresher, and healthier way to feed their pets. We provide human cut, personalised meals designed to support each dog's unique needs, delivered straight to their door – no preservatives, no compromises, just real nutrition. You can find our customers across the UK, with ambitions to scale internationally and keep transforming how people care for their dogs.

Join a small, outcomes‑led Paid Growth team that turns real customer insight and performance data into creative that converts dog owners. The mission is clear: help more dogs live longer, healthier, happier lives by switching to Years, while acquiring those customers at an efficient CPA. The challenge is breaking creative fatigue, compounding learnings, and translating what owners care about into scroll‑stopping ideas for Meta and TikTok. Day‑to‑day you'll run a tight testing engine. Write scripts. Shape UGC and VSLs. Refresh winners every week. In parallel, build a longer‑term creative system that scales across channels and lifts LTV without leaning on discounts. You'll own hypotheses, test design and iteration, with clear visibility of budgets and pacing. You'll work closely with our Paid team, advertising agency, Data, Ops, NPD and Customer Support. Expect fast feedback loops, crisp briefs and shared outcomes. Roughly 70% hands on making and iterating, 30% strategy, frameworks and post‑mortems.
