About The Role

Our Back Office tools sit at the heart of two commercial relationships that matter. We manage custom‑built products that support relationships with landlords and our own Portfolio and Operations teams. The goal is to strengthen landlord relationships, accelerate field operations, and provide tools that enable business growth. The role also involves driving adoption of Backoffice products across 9 European markets, balancing local needs with standardisation across the BMO Group, setting roadmap and priorities with senior stakeholders, and steering delivery through external partners and internal engineering.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Own the vision, roadmap, and performance metrics for the landlord and field operations product portfolio (including Gateway, Survey Portal, and MapsLive)
  • Translate business needs into clear product decisions, using data to justify trade‑offs on cost, speed, and strategic value
  • Manage high‑pace relationships with senior stakeholders, constructively challenging requests and managing priorities with clear reasoning and communication
  • Spend time on the ground with field teams and landlord‑facing colleagues to ensure product designs reflect real‑world operations
  • Oversee product delivery across both external partners and internal engineering teams, maintaining high execution standards
  • Own both the build and run phases of the product lifecycle, using incidents and user friction as insights to improve the roadmap
  • Line management of 5 PMs in 2027

What You’ll Bring To The Team

  • Proven experience as a Senior Product Manager or Product Owner managing custom‑built software products
  • Track record of prioritising roadmaps amidst urgent, competing demands, with the ability to clearly justify scoping decisions and timeframes
  • Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to negotiate with demanding senior leadership and communicate complex decisions in plain language
  • Ability to map operational processes and identify whether a problem requires a software fix or an operational change
  • Data‑driven approach to product health, using support tickets, incidents, and user feedback to inform the roadmap
  • Experience working across a mixed delivery model of internal engineering teams and external partners is a plus

Benefits

  • 25 paid holidays including bank holidays
  • Company Pension Scheme paid up to 8%
  • Healthcare Cash Plan
  • Life Insurance and group income protection scheme
  • Cycle to work scheme
  • Enhanced Maternity & Paternity Cover
