However, opportunities for remote working from home cannot be accommodated owing to the nature of the work required.

Maintain coherence across the wider organisation's product landscape to ensure systems work well together. Bridge the gap between technical and non-technical stakeholders, making decisions on risk and technology strategy. Provide support, leadership, and direction to aid the development and growth of others through coaching and mentoring. Contribute to wider organisational strategy or governance initiatives.
Qualifications: Experience leading multiple successful product deliveries using methodologies such as Agile. Experience turning business problems into technical designs, including designing complex solutions and evaluating different technical/commercial options. Ability to lead the development of technology roadmaps with empowered product teams. Ensure system architectures are robust, scalable, and secure, delivering a high-quality user experience. Good communication skills and a passion for continuous learning.
Salary and Benefits: £77,800 - £86,400 (dependent on skills, experience and location) with opportunities for additional allowances and benefits including: 25 Days Annual Leave, rising to 30 days after 5 years' service. Interest-free season ticket loan. Excellent pension scheme. Cycle to work scheme. Facilities such as a gym, restaurant, and on-site coffee bars (at some locations). Paid parental and adoption leave.
