We're looking for a Data Product Manager to join our Data Enablement team.

Working with a multi‑skilled, talented team, you'll guide delivery from start to finish and champion change across your domain.

Why this role matters

Data products help us unlock insight, improve processes, and create value across our Co-op.

• Lead discovery workshops to build a clear understanding of our colleagues' data needs
• Collaborate with a multi‑skilled team to deliver robust data products
• Monitor delivery progress and keep the relevant parties informed
• Manage the backlog and make sure work is prioritised effectively
• Inspire and encourage colleagues to innovate and showcase the benefits of our work

What you'll bring

• Experience leading the delivery of robust data products end‑to‑end
• Experience using data visualisation tools (e.g., Power BI and MicroStrategy)
• A strong understanding of data engineering, modelling, architecture, APIs, AI, and machine learning
• Familiarity with agile methodologies (e.g., Scrum, Kanban)
• An awareness of how data product decisions impact business and financial performance
• Good communication and relationship‑building skills

We know some people may hesitate to apply if they don't meet every requirement. At Co‑op, we're committed to building diverse and inclusive teams, so if you're excited about this role but your experience doesn't align perfectly, we still encourage you to apply.
