The Role

This role provides senior product leadership across SoEnergy's Operations product area, covering the Measure, Recover and Assist & Resolve product lines. As a player‑coach, the Senior Product Manager owns and drives a product line of their own while coaching, developing and line managing a small team of Product Managers – ensuring the Operations product portfolio delivers a coherent, high‑quality experience for customers and the business, and that product management capability grows across the wider team.

Values

• Clear
• Honest
• Ambitious
• Inquisitive
• Caring
• Sustainable

What you’ll be getting up to in this role:

• Player - own product line
  • Own the product strategy, roadmap and delivery for one of the Operations product lines (Measure, Recover or Assist & Resolve) end to end, from discovery through to release and post‑launch iteration.
  • Define and track success metrics for the product line, using customer and operational data to prioritise the roadmap.
  • Represent the product line to senior stakeholders, articulating trade‑offs and securing buy‑in for direction.
• Coach - people leadership
  • Line manage 2‑3 Product Managers across the Operations product lines, setting clear expectations, objectives and personal development plans.
  • Coach Product Managers on product discovery, prioritisation, stakeholder management and delivery practice, raising the standard of product management across the team.
  • Recruit, onboard and backfill Product Manager roles across the Operations product lines to keep the team resourced against demand.
  • Run regular 1:1s, goal‑setting and performance reviews, identifying development opportunities and career pathways for each Product Manager.
• Portfolio & strategy
  • Work with the Product Lead to shape the strategy and direction of travel for the Operations product area, ensuring Measure, Recover and Assist & Resolve work together coherently.
  • Deputise for the Product Lead where required, building the readiness to step into that role if needed.
  • Build strong working relationships with the Operations Director, Marketing Director and relevant Heads of Operations functions, ensuring product plans align with wider business priorities.
  • Identify and close gaps in the product team's structure and capability, adjusting resourcing as priorities evolve.
  • Provide additional senior oversight and support for Automation, a temporary product line currently under review for the remainder of the year and expected to be absorbed elsewhere thereafter, working alongside its existing Product Manager.

You're a great match if:

Essential

• A minimum of four years' product management experience, with a strong track record of owning a product line end to end.
• Experience managing or coaching other Product Managers.
• Experience gained within an operations‑focused environment (e.g. service operations, billing operations, back‑office or customer operations).
• Ability to balance hands‑on product ownership with people leadership (a genuine player‑coach).
• Strong stakeholder management skills, comfortable working with senior leaders at Director level.
• Track record of setting goals, running performance reviews and supporting career development for direct reports.

Desirable

• Experience within the energy or utilities sector.
• Experience recruiting and building out a product team.
