We are looking for a product manager, the key areas you will be responsible for working with, are the Centric and Utilities teams who utilise data to create data driven results for multiple uses and delivers government policy initiatives to improve citizens lives. The migration work is crucial to the department, to ensure delivery of the datasets to OGD’s and outside organisations that are depending on DWP data.
You will be working with Teams that are on the forefront of Data Transformation. You will work closely with cross functional product teams. These teams are located at Peel Park, Blackpool Digital Hub, so it would be very beneficial to be located within the NW region, to allow hybrid working with the teams.
The role will be responsible for making evidenced based strategic and tactical product decisions and making key priority calls. You will be actively involved in developing the product strategy, owning the product roadmap, and communicating product success to stakeholders but also defend controversial decisions about your product. You will also have experience of product management techniques.
While you will work independently, you’ll also be part of a more complex area with the support of a more senior Product Manager.
Additionally, you’ll be a part of our Product Community of Practice, where Product Managers across DWP Digital come together to share learning, discuss their development needs, gain support, and solve for common problems.
