Product Manager – Ethics & Compliance in London

Location: London, England, United Kingdom

Role Overview

Own a whistleblowing and case management platform used by major enterprises, working closely with engineering teams in London and Bangalore to create and ship features that differentiate the product from the competition – from employee reporting tools to AI-powered investigation workflows. This is a fast-moving environment where you'll need to be comfortable with complexity, technically curious, and confident communicating across every level of the business. It's a one-year fixed term contract covering maternity leave, with a realistic possibility of extension or permanence for the right person.

Key Responsibilities

• Own the product roadmap for a whistleblowing and case management platform (Vault/Speak Up), working with one other product manager and a team of 6–12 engineers to define, prioritise, and ship features.
• Work with engineering daily to translate business requirements into well-scoped, deliverable work – managing trade-offs between speed and scope coverage in a fast-moving environment.
• Collaborate across a portfolio of Ethics & Compliance products including policy management, compliance training, and conflicts of interest – ensuring your product connects into a broader vision.
• Engage with product marketing, senior stakeholders, and commercial teams to communicate what you're building, why it matters, and what's coming next.
• Conceptualise and shape AI-powered product features – you won't just be managing a backlog, you'll be actively ideating how AI can transform compliance workflows.
• Pick up and run with a knowledge transfer from the outgoing PM, getting up to speed quickly on a platform that's been substantially modernised in the last 12 months.

Essential Requirements

• 3-5 years of demonstrable experience as a product manager in a B2B SaaS environment, owning a product end-to-end from discovery through delivery.
• Strong technical communication – you can hold a detailed conversation with engineers about APIs, databases, and integrations, and then switch to presenting strategy to senior leadership without missing a beat.
• AI fluency – you understand what LLMs are, how AI capabilities can be embedded in products, and can think critically about where AI adds real value versus noise.
• Comfort with ambiguity and pace – you're the kind of PM who creates structure where there is none, and you don't wait to be told what to do.
• Excellent stakeholder management – you can build trust quickly, navigate competing priorities, and communicate clearly across product, engineering, design, and commercial teams.
• A bias toward action – you ship, you iterate, you learn, and you don't let perfect be the enemy of good.

Preferred Skills

• Experience in GRC (Governance, Risk & Compliance), legal tech, or ethics and compliance software.
• Hands-on experience using AI tools for product management – prototyping with tools like v0, Claude or similar to accelerate your workflow.
• Familiarity with working across distributed engineering teams (London and Bangalore in this case).
• Experience with whistleblowing, case management, or employee reporting platforms.
