Role responsibilities

At Valtech you will wear multiple hats – product evangelist, consultant to senior leaders – working with customers and stakeholders to gain a deep understanding of the problems they are trying to solve. With the ability to identify and prioritise the most valuable product or programme of work, ensuring that it's clearly articulated, understood and inspirational for the viability of the team's proposal.

What You Can Expect

• Collaborate with developers, UX and product designers, strategists, architects, test engineers, delivery managers and other technology experts to deliver high-quality software in a way that delights customers and exceeds client expectations.
• Work with customers and stakeholders to understand their needs, challenges and pain points; then shape solutions to solve them.
• Define and prioritise requirements for new or existing digital products and communicate these to the development team in a way which is easily understood.
• Take responsibility for defining a vision for the product, ensuring that every member of the team keeps that vision clearly in mind as development progresses.
• Own the product roadmap, using your insight and feedback from various sources to iteratively evolve features according to user and client need.
• Act as a liaison between our clients, third parties and development teams, keeping the client abreast of the progress, demoing work, getting answers to questions from the team, clarifying priorities, coordinating across complex dependencies to go from idea to successful implementation.
• Act as a guardian for the quality of the work produced by your project team(s), ensuring they are consistently upholding Valtech standards.
• Provide a first point of escalation for major project issues, and take the lead in tackling tough conversations whenever required.
• Use your experience and perspective on the practice of Agile product management to help guide our practices and processes at Valtech, taking opportunities to contribute to their evolution where appropriate.
• Help set the strategic agenda for the Product Practice, keeping continuous improvement of output and processes firmly in mind.
• Share knowledge and support more junior members informally in delivering the agreed strategy.
• Build strong working relationships with clients at all levels, working closely with one of Client Partners (where one is assigned), so that they view Valtech as a trusted partner in their business.
• Help the Product Practice, and other teams you work in, by providing the client and customer context for decisions, or reframing challenges to make them easier to solve.
• Manage the Product contribution to pitches and business development efforts as required.
