About Whitespace: Whitespace is where secure technology meets real‑world impact. We design and build intelligent systems for defence, government, and commercial clients who need absolute trust in how their data and decisions are handled.
We work on projects that matter—AI platforms that power national programmes, automation that helps critical infrastructure run smarter, and internal initiatives that make our organisation faster, leaner, and more resilient. Our environment is fast, focused, and human. We believe in flexibility, clear purpose, and giving people the autonomy to do their best work. We run 4‑day weeks in July, August, and December, and finish early every Friday because time is a resource worth managing well.

- Work closely with product design, engineering, and research teams to ensure strong alignment across discovery and delivery.
- Partner with commercial, marketing, and solutions engineering teams to refine value propositions and drive product adoption.
- Lead customer discovery and feedback loops, ensuring every release is informed by market insight and measurable outcomes.
- Track and communicate progress, success metrics, and dependencies to stakeholders across the business.
- Represent the voice of the customer in all product decisions.
What You Bring
- 4–6 years of experience in product management, ideally in technology, AI, or enterprise software.
- Proven ability to manage 0→1 and growth‑stage products through to market adoption.
- Strong understanding of AI technologies and their practical enterprise applications.
- Excellent communication skills with the ability to align diverse teams around shared outcomes.
- Data‑driven approach with comfort defining OKRs and success metrics.
