Job Description

Data Product Manager at UW tackling complex data integration challenges. Building data products and leading initiatives to drive growth and efficiency in a multi-utility business.

Responsibilities:

  • Setting the vision: Define the one-year roadmap for the Data domain, look 3 to 6 months ahead to plan multi-squad projects, manage complex trade-offs, and set clear KPIs and OKRs.
  • Building our Data & AI foundation: Work on building our brand-new data warehouse as a robust data foundation, whilst owning the ongoing development of our AI infrastructure—including Chatbots and Agentic AI.
  • Enabling self-serve journeys: Help build self-serve data tools so colleagues across UW can get the insights they need at their fingertips.
  • Designing great features: Lead the design process for complex features and bridge the gap between multiple engineering teams to solve deep-seated user pain points.
  • Leading big deliveries: Manage the end-to-end delivery of large, multi-quarter initiatives, make high-stakes decisions (like feature deprecation or strategic pivots), and spot and manage any risks along the way.
  • Aligning stakeholders: Act as an Ambassador for the Data team. Keep a complex mix of internal and external partners on the same page, manage blockers proactively, and present clear, compelling strategic narratives to senior leadership.
  • Technical specs & integrations: Define complex, multi-system feature sets, design API integrations, and guide data modeling discussions with engineers to make sure our systems talk to each other seamlessly.

Requirements:

  • Solid data literacy: You are comfortable with SQL and understand the Modern Data Stack (like BigQuery, Dataform, and APIs).
  • Full-stack product thinking: Proven experience managing complex, internal data products in a fast-growing business.
  • Data-driven leadership: You know how to use behavioural data, predictive modelling, and machine learning to build highly personalised customer journeys.
  • Commercial smarts: You understand commercial concepts like LTV, CAC, Opex, and Capex, and factor them into your product and investment decisions.
  • Smart decision-making: Experience evaluating third-party vendors (build vs. buy decisions) and integrating them into an existing tech ecosystem.
  • Stakeholder management: Experience working with a range of stakeholders including highly technical specialists through to senior executives in commercial functions.
  • Strategic customer focus: You understand the internal customer deeply and build deep connections across the business to identify and analyse new growth opportunities.

Benefits:

  • Competitive salary: We benchmark against the industry and will share the salary openly during our first conversation.
  • Performance bonus: An annual discretionary bonus ranging from 15-40%.
  • Flexible working with a base office in central London
  • Work-life balance: We offer an optional four-day working week (90% pay for 90% impact).
  • Work from anywhere: You can work abroad for up to three weeks, twice every tax year.
  • Holiday: 25 days plus bank holidays (increasing with tenure), with the option to trade up to five days each year.
  • UW discounts: Save on our services and you’ll also get access to 100s of rewards and discounts through Perkbox
  • Future planning: Matched-contribution pension scheme and life assurance (up to 4x salary).
  • Family first: Policies designed to help you and your family thrive.
  • Flexible benefits: An allowance for private health insurance, dental insurance, or gym membership.
  • Sabbaticals: An eight-week paid sabbatical after four years of service.
  • Growth: A dedicated learning and development budget and bi-annual promotion cycles.
  • Inclusion: Join belonging groups that help shape our culture.
