As a Lead Product Owner, you will guide the evolution of our products to ensure they meet and exceed the evolving needs of our clients, while actively contributing to a product-centric way of working across the organisation. This role sits within the Product Management function, reporting directly to the Lead Product Owner, and operates as an integral part of a cross-functional team structure designed to drive consistent product excellence across Buckhill's portfolio.  You will be accountable for translating Buckhill's strategic objectives into actionable, forward-thinking roadmaps and well-prioritised backlogs. Collaborating closely with cross-functional teams, you will take ownership of product outcomes and contribute meaningfully to how product development is executed at Buckhill during this period of growth.  This role is based in the United Kingdom.
