Assess client requests, user insights, market trends, and competitor offerings to identify product enhancements.
Evaluate regulatory or compliance changes and determine how they should be incorporated into products.

About You:

Experience owning or contributing to product roadmaps, prioritising features based on business value.
Background in Agile software delivery or a strong interest in developing your expertise in this area.
Experience working with SaaS (Software as a Service) and cloud-based products.
Excellent multitasking abilities, balancing customer needs, product strategy, and technical considerations.
A proactive, hands-on approach with a passion for contributing to team success.
A combination of business insight and technical understanding, with the vision and drive to turn ideas into reality.
