Role Background
We're looking for a Product Operations Lead - part process architect, part agile coach, part metrics steward, to serve as the enabling backbone of our product organisation.
Our Product Team work across three modes: Discovery, Delivery and Optimisation, with Product Operations as a core enabling function to all three. We call this DDO+.
You will embed governance and best practice across our PM’s three working modes while coaching teams through new ways of working rooted in Shape Up, Team Topologies, and HEART principles. You are an enabler, not a gatekeeper: you encourage discipline through clarity, not control.
We are currently scaling our Product offering, so you'll be joining an established team of product, insurance, and technical experts meeting the demands of a growing client pipeline.
Your goal is to reduce cognitive load, accelerate value flow, and ensure our operating model (DDO+) scales effectively as we grow from ~75 to ~150 headcount.
Please note, this is a hybrid role with 2-3 days per week based at our HQ (City of London.)
