Product Manager

Job title: Product Manager

Location: London (Paddington) - X3 times a week onsite

Contract Length: six months with a potential of extension

IR35: Inside

Start date: ASAP

Role Context

The Channel Product Domain vision is to establish a scalable, consistent, and future-ready product ecosystem that enables seamless product data and content flow across all customer channels and downstream platforms. The domain plays a critical role in delivering strategic goals through improved product data management, API enablement, operational efficiency, and modernised architecture aligned to the North Star vision.

The Channel Product Domain currently consists of two closely aligned capability areas:

Product APIs (REST, Sub-graphs, legacy assembly apis)
PIM (Product Information Management)

As the PIM platform is undergoing a significant modernisation programme requiring dedicated strategic focus, additional product ownership support is required within the Product APIs space. Product APIs must continue to evolve in alignment with the wider Channel Product Domain vision, OKRs, PIM roadmap, and North Star architecture to ensure both teams operate cohesively towards shared domain objectives.

Key Responsibilities

Support the Channel Product Domain Product Manager in delivering Product API initiatives aligned to the wider domain vision, strategic goals, OKRs, and North Star architecture.
Own and manage the day-to-day Product APIs backlog, ensuring priorities are aligned with agreed roadmap outcomes, engineering capacity, and cross-domain dependencies.
Work closely with the Channel Product Domain Product Manager to translate strategic initiatives into clear, actionable delivery requirements for engineering teams.
Lead backlog refinement, sprint planning, sprint ceremonies, and day-to-day agile delivery activities across the Product APIs team.
Gather, analyse, and document business and technical requirements, ensuring stories and requirements are sufficiently refined, prioritised, and understood by delivery teams.
Ensure alignment between Product APIs initiatives and the wider PIM modernisation roadmap, supporting consistent product domain evolution across both teams.
Proactively identify and manage blockers, delivery risks, technical dependencies, and cross-team impacts, escalating where appropriate to the Channel Product Domain Product Manager.If you receive suspicious outreach claiming to be from us, please contact us via the ManpowerGroup website
