Description:
This is a rare opportunity to take ownership of a large-scale, enterprise SaaS product ecosystem at a pivotal stage of evolution.
You will define and lead the end-to-end product strategy across a complex, multi-platform environment, shaping how technology, data, and intelligent systems combine to drive commercial outcomes at scale. The organisation is investing heavily in platform maturity, data capability, and AI-driven product innovation, and this role sits at the centre of that transformation.
This is not a narrow product role. It is a strategic, high-impact leadership position with responsibility for:
- Core SaaS product platforms
- Data-led capabilities and decisioning systems
- AI/ML integration into live products
- Commercial performance and long-term product direction
You will operate at senior leadership level, influencing both technology and business strategy, with a clear mandate to build products that deliver measurable value.
What You Will Own
Product Strategy & Vision
- Define and execute a multi-year product strategy across a portfolio of enterprise SaaS platforms
- Translate complex business challenges into scalable, product-led solutions
- Own roadmap prioritisation aligned to commercial outcomes, customer value, and platform scalability
Data & Intelligent Product Capability
- Drive the evolution of data as a product, not just a function
- Embed data-driven decisioning, analytics, and AI capabilities directly into customer-facing and operational products
- Oversee the development of decision engines, predictive models, and intelligent workflows that enhance product value
Platform & Product Leadership
- Lead cross-functional teams spanning Product, Data, Engineering, and AI/ML disciplines
- Introduce and embed product management best practices, including OKRs, product metrics, and experimentation frameworks
- Build a culture focused on outcomes, not output
Commercial Ownership
- Identify and unlock new revenue opportunities through product innovation and data capability
- Contribute to pricing strategy, product positioning, and commercial performance
- Partner with senior stakeholders to ensure clear ROI on product investment
Stakeholder Influence
- Operate as a senior leader across the organisation, influencing at C-level and board level
- Align technology delivery with broader business strategy and growth objectives
- Act as a key voice in shaping the organisation’s future platform direction
Data, AI & Platform Ambition
The organisation is actively transitioning toward a data-led, AI-enabled product model.
Key areas of focus include:
- Building intelligent decisioning systems that automate complex processes
- Leveraging predictive analytics and machine learning to drive commercial optimisation
- Embedding AI capabilities into core SaaS products to enhance user experience and operational efficiency
- Moving from fragmented data usage to cohesive, productised data platforms
This role will define how those capabilities are designed, built, and scaled across the business.
