GROUP HEAD OF PRODUCT
London or Leeds | SaaS | B2B, B2C & B2B2C
Jefferson Locke is partnering with a highly successful, growing UK SaaS business to appoint a Group Head of Product, taking overall leadership of product strategy, delivery and performance across a significant portfolio of B2B and consumer-facing products.
This is much more than managing an established roadmap.
The business has built a strong market position through technology, innovation and sustained growth. It now has the scale, customer base and breadth of products to enter an important next phase of its development.
The opportunity is to connect, evolve and accelerate that portfolio.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Sitting at the top of the Product function for these areas, you'll lead two Heads of Product and their respective teams, with responsibility for a portfolio spanning:
- New customer acquisition and commercial engagement
- Digital onboarding and workflow
- Compliance, verification and risk
- Consumer-facing digital experiences
- Data-led products and services
- The growing application of AI across products and customer journeys
Individually, these are substantial product areas. Collectively, they create the opportunity to build an increasingly connected digital ecosystem serving businesses, professional users and end consumers.
A major part of your mandate will be determining how those products should work together, where the business should invest and how technology, data and AI can create better experiences and greater commercial value.
WHAT YOU'LL LEAD
You'll own the overall product strategy and roadmap, ensuring priorities remain closely connected to customer needs and the wider commercial direction of the business.
Working closely with Engineering and Design, you'll provide leadership across multiple Product teams while balancing longer-term platform strategy with effective delivery.
You'll also help shape how the business approaches AI.
We're not interested in AI for AI's sake. We're looking for someone who understands the emerging landscape and can identify where it can genuinely improve customer experience, remove friction and create meaningful efficiency.
WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR
We're deliberately keeping the sector open. You do not need experience within the client's specific industry.
We're more interested in accomplished Product leaders from sophisticated SaaS, software, platform or technology businesses who can bring fresh thinking and relevant experience.
You'll likely be operating at Head of Product, Group Head of Product, Product Director or VP Product level, with experience leading multiple teams rather than simply owning an individual product.
You'll ideally bring:
- Significant senior Product leadership experience within SaaS, software or technology
- Experience leading multi-team Product organisations
- Strong exposure to B2B and B2C products, ideally including B2B2C
- Experience creating product strategy and translating it into executable roadmaps
- Strong technical understanding and credibility with Engineering and Design
- Experience of complex or multi-product platforms
- Commercial judgement and a strong customer/outcome focus
- Experience with data-led products
- A practical understanding of AI and its application within digital products
- Strong stakeholder management and the confidence to make clear decisions
Crucially, you'll be comfortable moving between strategy and execution: capable of thinking about where the portfolio should be in three years while remaining close enough to customers, teams and products to understand what needs to happen today.
WHY THIS ROLE?
This isn't a Product leadership role where the challenge is simply to keep the machine running.
The foundations are already strong. The opportunity is to help determine what comes next.
How does a successful portfolio become a genuinely connected platform? Where should investment be concentrated? How should AI and data reshape the customer experience? And how do you build a Product organisation capable of supporting the next stage of growth?
For the right Product leader, this offers real ownership, influence and visible impact inside an ambitious and established technology business.
