You will work closely with senior stakeholders across agencies to balance policy intent, operational needs, user outcomes, governance requirements and delivery constraints.

Ensure product scope remains outcome‑driven, avoiding unnecessary complexity or unsustainable solutions.

[Scope of Work] You will typically work on mission‑critical or cross‑agency products where data is foundational, such as: Enterprise or sector‑wide data platforms Authoritative government datasets Shared analytics or reporting products The role operates at a broader and more complex scope than a Product Manager, often spanning multiple systems, agencies and user groups. [What we are looking for] Core Product Skills Proven experience in product management at a senior level , including product strategy, roadmap ownership and outcome delivery Strong ability to manage senior stakeholders and operate in complex, multi‑party environments Experience articulating product value, risks and trade‑offs to governance or leadership forums Data & Technical Literacy Good understanding of modern data platforms and architectures (e.g. ingestion, transformation, analytics, data services) Working knowledge of data governance concepts such as data quality, access control and lineage Ability to collaborate effectively with engineer
