Senior Product Manager

About the role

About the role We are looking for a strategic, evidence-driven, deeply curious Senior Product Manager to own and elevate the teacher and student experience at the heart of our product. In this role, you will define the vision and roadmap for how teachers and students engage with Up Learn - turning what is already a promising experience into one that is genuinely easy, motivating, and impactful in driving the grade improvements our customers buy us for. You will own the full product discovery and delivery cycle: systematically uncovering the highest-impact opportunities, testing assumptions rigorously, and doing whatever it takes to ship work that moves the needle. This is a high-ownership, high-accountability senior IC role for someone who combines sharp strategic thinking with a bias for action. You will work closely with leadership and teams across engineering, learning, and commercial - building the evidence, alignment, and momentum needed to deliver a roadmap that creates real value for teachers, students, and the business. About us At Up Learn, we've built one of the world's most effective learning experiences by combining cognitive science, instructional theory, and artificial intelligence. Our mission is to give every learner the most effective path to success, and our vision is a world where every learner achieves more, faster, through adaptive, mastery-based learning. We're the market-leading platform for A Levels, with seven courses on offer and 1 in 3 A Level students using Up Learn. Over the next year, we're launching GCSE Science and accelerating growth, expanding our impact to millions more students. Our results speak for themselves: 97% of students who complete our courses achieve an A*/A, even those who started with lower grades. And a large-scale evaluation of Up Learn in schools found usage is associated with 9 months additional progress, with grade improvements across whole year groups. And for every paying student, we provide a full scholarship to a student in need - ensuring high-quality education is accessible to all. About you You are a rigorous, evidence-driven product thinker who explores multiple problems and solutions before committing to a direction, and takes full ownership of outcomes - not just outputs. You roll your sleeves up to make impact happen, and are deeply curious about your users, your market, and your data, relentlessly building that expertise over time. You're a strong collaborator who actively seeks challenge and disagreement and uses it to build better products. You're excited by AI - not as an end in itself, but as a genuine opportunity to work smarter and build better. And you're energised by the ambiguity and pace of a rapidly scaling company, motivated by work that genuinely improves lives. What you'll do in the first 6 months Define vision and roadmap. Own the product vision and roadmap for your goals. Ground both in qualitative and quantitative evidence, and build genuine understanding and buy-in from leadership and Heads of Department. Run product discovery. Systematically explore multiple problems and solutions before committing to a direction. Use a range of discovery techniques - user research, in-product experiments, trapdoor tests, technical PoCs - to pressure-test assumptions and identify what will make the most impact. Deliver impact. More importantly than anything, do whatever it takes to ship work that achieves your goals. That means leadership and persuasion when you need others to move and rolling up your sleeves when you don't - whether that's data analysis, project management, product marketing, or talking directly to customers. Be data-fluent. Define the metrics that best track impact for your goals, including baselines and targets where applicable. Develop deep expertise in the data available to you - product analytics, commercial data - including its definitions, caveats, and limits. Use it to make sharper decisions. Build deep domain knowledge. Become the company's go-to expert on your users, your market, and your product. Regularly watch sales and customer success calls, read customer feedback, interview users, and keep a close eye on competitors and market trends. Help build a better product org. Actively contribute to improving how the product team works - bringing ideas from your own experience and from the wider product community. Take ownership of improvements rather than waiting to be asked. Collaborate across the company. Build strong working relationships with teams across engineering, learning, and commercial. Seek out their expertise early and often - not as stakeholder management, but because it makes the product better. Embrace AI. Actively experiment with how AI can improve what you build and how you work. Bring a point of view, take ownership of trying new approaches, and stay closely engaged with how the space is developing. Minimum 7 years of product management experience, with significant time in a senior IC role at a sta
