Role
Who you are
- We’re looking for a seasoned strategist who can move seamlessly from high-level vision to a granular, prioritised product backlog
- Product Ownership in practice: You've operated as a Product Owner or senior analyst on complex digital programmes, comfortable holding the space between stakeholders and delivery teams without needing a formal title to do it
- You understand how digital products make money. Whether that's conversion optimisation, revenue modelling, or ROI-based prioritisation and you know how to keep that lens applied throughout discovery
- You're experienced in turning ambiguous briefs into clear, actionable insights, mapping user needs to business outcomes and identifying where the greatest commercial opportunity lies
- You're comfortable shaping and prioritising backlogs, writing user stories, and slicing work into meaningful increments that deliver value early and often
- You've designed and led working sessions with senior stakeholders, able to build consensus, surface the right conversations, and leave the room with clear decisions and next steps
- You produce clean, compelling artefacts; roadmaps, prioritisation frameworks, business cases - that land equally well with a C-Suite audience as they do with a delivery team
What the job involves
- Department: Growth
- You'll work on innovative projects using the latest technologies before they hit the mainstream
- As a Strategic Product Analyst on a 3-month contract, you'll be the vital bridge between business objectives and technical delivery
- You will act as an informal Product Owner, representing the client's voice to ensure our solutions are a joy to interact with - grounding strategic ambition in commercial rigour and real-world feasibility
- Commercial Strategy & Prioritisation: You'll be grounding discovery work in revenue outcomes - assessing e-commerce capabilities, identifying high-value opportunities, and developing ROI-based frameworks to determine where to focus effort first
- Discovery & Insight: Running workshops and collaborative sessions to surface business needs, map jobs-to-be-done, and define the value exchange between user needs and commercial goals
- Feasibility & Audit: Sense-checking proposed solutions against existing technical capabilities, identifying gaps or dependencies, and ensuring strategic ambition is matched by delivery reality
- Backlog & Roadmap Development: Translating discovery outputs into structured, prioritised backlogs with incremental delivery slices, and building phased implementation roadmaps with a clear business case for each stage
- Stakeholder Alignment: Acting as a connective thread across business, technical, and design teams - facilitating workshops, driving decisions, and maintaining momentum across workstreams
- We specialise in delivering innovative solutions and exceptional services to meet the diverse needs of our clients
- With a strong commitment to quality and customer satisfaction, we strive to exceed expectations and drive success in every project we undertake
