You’ll combine technology, data, AI, operating model and commercial thinking to create an environment where teams can focus on delivering exceptional customer and business outcomes.

Build a culture focused on learning, simplification and measurable improvement.

Use data, feedback and emerging technology to remove friction, improve productivity and enhance the experience of Product, Engineering and Platform teams.

Continuously challenge existing practices and identify opportunities to increase organisational effectiveness.

You’ll be an experienced builder who has successfully created or transformed enablement capabilities within a modern digital organisation.

Significant leadership experience across Product Operations, Product Enablement or Product Platform functions.

A strong understanding of modern Product Management, Engineering and Platform practices.

Experience designing operating models and improving organisational effectiveness.

Expertise in product tooling, workflow automation and platform enablement.

Experience establishing data and insight capabilities that move beyond reporting into decision support.

Strong commercial acumen, including technology FinOps, cloud cost optimisation or SaaS portfolio management.

Practical experience introducing AI into products, processes or ways of working.

Excellent stakeholder management, with the credibility to influence leaders across Product, Engineering, Platform, Technology and Finance.

This is an opportunity to shape how a modern Product, Engineering & Platform organisation operates—building the capabilities, platforms and ways of working that will enable our teams to succeed today and in an increasingly AI-enabled future.

We believe that coming together as a community, in person, is important for innovation, connection and fostering a sense of belonging. Our roles have the right balance of remote and in-office working to enable flexibility for managing your life along with ensuring a real connection with your colleagues and the broader IFS community.
