Bristol (Hybrid 2- 3 days a week in the office)
£50,000 - £60,000 + 10% pension, private medical, life assurance, plus much more!

I'm currently working with a highly innovative, tech-led analytics business operating within the insurance and risk space. They are looking to appoint an experienced Product Owner to join their growing team in Bristol.

This is a unique opportunity for someone who enjoys working at the intersection of technology, data and business operations within a fast-paced, collaborative environment. The role sits across multiple teams and stakeholders, offering the chance to make a genuine impact on product delivery, operational efficiency and data-driven decision making.

Unlike a traditional Product Owner role focused purely on software development, this position involves working closely with Data Scientists, Software Engineers, Underwriters and senior leadership teams to oversee complex data flows and business-critical processes end-to-end.

The Role

You will be responsible for coordinating and managing multiple workstreams across technical and operational teams, ensuring delivery priorities are aligned with wider business objectives.

Oversee end-to-end product and data pipeline workflows
Work closely with senior stakeholders and business leadership teams
Drive delivery priorities, sprint planning and workflow management
Produce and interpret analytical and operational reports using tools such as Excel and Tableau

Support process improvement and operational efficiency initiatives

5+ years' experience working as a Product Owner
Strong experience working with Jira and Confluence
Experience managing cross-functional technical teams
Good understanding of data flows, analytics and stakeholder management
Comfortable working within fast-paced, evolving environments
Strong communication and organisational skills

Highly Desirable

This is an excellent opportunity to join a growing and highly respected business that is investing heavily in technology, analytics and innovation. The environment is collaborative, entrepreneurial and ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex operational and technical challenges.
