• Drive Product Vision and Strategy
• Develop and articulate a clear product vision that aligns teams around long‑term goals
• Define and track success metrics, critically analysing data on at least a quarterly basis
• Leverage market research, competitor reviews, and technology trends to inform strategic direction
• Proactively identify opportunities and connect product analyses to broader organisational impact
• Lead Data‑Driven Product Discovery
• Conduct and synthesise user research, customer feedback, and technical feasibility assessments
• Use data to validate or challenge ideas before committing to development
• Identify and mitigate risks from both a technical and market perspective
• Make and communicate prioritisation decisions backed by clear data and evidence
• Translate Domain Complexity into Clear Product Requirements
• Work closely with legal, policy, and operations stakeholders to understand workflow complexities
• Translate nuanced domain requirements into clear, well‑scoped product specifications
• Take full ownership of ambiguously‑scoped initiatives, ensuring successful and well‑defined outcomes
• Anticipate potential challenges and build mitigation strategies into the product planning process
• Execute with Speed, Quality, and Agility
• Partner with engineers and designers to scope, prioritise, and plan iterative delivery cycles
• Consult on implementation details and understand the trade‑offs between speed and technical debt
• Foster a team culture of speed, simplicity, and agility
• Recognise and communicate short‑term trade‑offs while safeguarding long‑term product integrity
• Guide Sound Technical and Architectural Decision‑Making
• Evaluate and recommend approaches to structured content design and document interoperability
• Ensure architectural decisions are informed by data, user needs, and long‑term maintainability
• Collaborate with engineers to assess technology trade‑offs and their downstream implications
• Champion responsible AI use, particularly in legal and policy‑sensitive product contexts
• Drive Cross‑Functional Alignment and Stakeholder Engagement
• Facilitate alignment across diverse stakeholder groups, navigating disagreements constructively
• Communicate product goals, priorities, and progress clearly to both technical and non‑technical audiences
• Coordinate cross‑functional collaboration to ensure projects are delivered effectively and on time
• Advocate for user needs and product insights at the leadership level
• Mentor, Develop, and Strengthen the Team
• Mentor and support junior product managers through knowledge sharing and constructive feedback
• Help team members navigate day‑to‑day blockers and break down complex problems
• Conduct regular check‑ins to monitor progress and provide timely, actionable guidance

What We’re Looking For

• 8–12 years of product management experience, including leading complex systems or multi‑product portfolios
• Strong discovery skills and a track record of delivering user‑centred, scalable solutions
• Able to operate in high‑ambiguity environments and establish structure where none exists
• Excellent stakeholder engagement and facilitation skills
• Familiarity with system integration, data interoperability, and document management
• Able to define long‑term product architecture and shared capabilities across systems — not just ship isolated features

We Also Value

• Intellectual curiosity by asking why, not just how.
• A bias towards action: you prefer testing ideas over debating them.
• A collaborative mindset - you can work with domain experts, engineers, and leadership.
