Product Owner

We’re excited to be working with an established global organisation that is investing in the products and technology behind its next stage of growth. They’re looking for a Product Owner in Glasgow who wants to solve complex problems, work with talented teams and have a real say in what gets built.

About the role

This is a Product Owner role at the intersection of product, data and technology. You’ll take broad business and customer needs, work out what matters most, and turn them into clear priorities for engineering teams to deliver. Your work will help users discover, understand and access data more easily, while improving the quality and consistency of the information behind the platform.

What you’ll be doing

• Own and prioritise the product backlog, making clear decisions about what should be delivered and why.
• Work with Product Managers and engineers to shape upcoming work, sequence features and manage dependencies.
• Turn complex business and technical requirements into epics, user stories, acceptance criteria and process flows.
• Lead backlog refinement, contribute to sprint planning and reviews, and support user acceptance testing.
• Speak with teams across product, engineering, data, research and commercial functions to understand their workflows and solve practical problems.
• Define improvements to how data is described, searched, accessed, connected and reused across systems.
• Help shape requirements around data quality, metadata, identifiers and the way records are matched and managed.
• Use SQL or similar tools to investigate datasets, check assumptions and support product decisions.
• Gather feedback, assess how delivered features perform and use those insights to guide the next improvements.
• Explore prototypes, including those built with AI tools, to make ideas tangible and get quicker feedback.

What we’re looking for

• At least two years’ experience in product ownership, product management, business analysis or a closely related role within financial services or fintech.
• A track record of taking unclear or competing requests and turning them into well-defined, prioritised work for delivery teams.
• Experience working with Agile engineers and tools such as Jira and Confluence.
• An understanding of data products and the challenges involved in keeping data accurate, accessible and useful across multiple systems.
• Familiarity with APIs, data models or integrations, and the ability to discuss requirements with technical colleagues.
• Confidence using SQL or another analytical tool to explore data and validate requirements.
• Strong communication skills and the judgement to bring different stakeholders towards a clear decision.
• Experience with financial data, data platforms or analytics products would be especially useful. We’d also be interested in hearing from people who have used prototypes or AI tools to explore product ideas.
