Role: Senior Product Manager (IC) Location: London HQ (Oval) Hybrid (3 days in office) Type: Full-time Salary: £85K-£105K + compelling package (incl. options) Our vision Every child deserves a better start toward the best possible future. The right educator in the right classroom at the right time can change a child's chances and, at scale, a nation's trajectory. Yet too much of our education system's time, money and talent are lost to inefficiency. At Zen Educate we're changing that through technology: helping schools save millions in tight times, helping educators find work that rewards their skills and fits their lives, and building a better educated society that invests its best in every child. That outcome (the right educator, in the right classroom, at the right time, everywhere) is our product. The software, tools, systems, processes, and people are how we make it happen. Hi, I'm Dan Cohen I'm the Chief Product Officer here at Zen Educate. We've already helped schools save over £30 million so far. That feels great, but honestly it just shows what's possible when the system works better and we have a long way to go! Now we're scaling fast in the UK and US, and the next chapter is about building the machine that keeps delivering that outcome at scale. To do that, we're looking for a Senior Product Manager who's outcome obsessed, data savvy and happy being in the messy middle where product, people and process meet. This isn't a people management role, although it will require a great deal of leadership. It's an individual contributor role for a savvy Product Operator who still loves building: defining problems, finding leverage and turning ambiguity into momentum. If you like figuring things out, getting teams moving and seeing your work directly improve real people's lives, you'll enjoy this. What "product" means here At Zen, "product" doesn't stop at the software. The software is one part of a much bigger system that connects schools, teachers, data and processes. Sometimes the right answer is a feature. Sometimes it's an operational tweak, a better metric or a mindset shift that changes how people work. You'll care more about the outcome than about what shape the solution takes. What you'll be doing Frame real problems and find the shortest path to proving or disproving them Combine qualitative insight with quantitative data to guide priorities Work closely with design, engineering and ops to ship, learn and repeat Define success metrics that link to business outcomes Keep improving how we do product at Zen through better tools, habits and feedback loops You'll be in the thick of it: shaping, testing, talking to users, untangling blockers and helping the team focus on what moves the needle. The kind of PM we're looking for The kind who's calm in the chaos and curious in the unknown.

Role: Senior Product Manager (IC) Location: London HQ (Oval) Hybrid (3 days in office) Type: Full-time Salary: £85K-£105K + compelling package (incl. options) Our vision Every child deserves a better start toward the best possible future. The right educator in the right classroom at the right time can change a child's chances and, at scale, a nation's trajectory. Yet too much of our education system's time, money and talent are lost to inefficiency. At Zen Educate we're changing that through technology: helping schools save millions in tight times, helping educators find work that rewards their skills and fits their lives, and building a better educated society that invests its best in every child. That outcome (the right educator, in the right classroom, at the right time, everywhere) is our product. The software, tools, systems, processes, and people are how we make it happen. Hi, I'm Dan Cohen I'm the Chief Product Officer here at Zen Educate. We've already helped schools save over £30 million so far. That feels great, but honestly it just shows what's possible when the system works better and we have a long way to go! Now we're scaling fast in the UK and US, and the next chapter is about building the machine that keeps delivering that outcome at scale. To do that, we're looking for a Senior Product Manager who's outcome obsessed, data savvy and happy being in the messy middle where product, people and process meet. This isn't a people management role, although it will require a great deal of leadership. It's an individual contributor role for a savvy Product Operator who still loves building: defining problems, finding leverage and turning ambiguity into momentum. If you like figuring things out, getting teams moving and seeing your work directly improve real people's lives, you'll enjoy this. What "product" means here At Zen, "product" doesn't stop at the software. The software is one part of a much bigger system that connects schools, teachers, data and processes. Sometimes the right answer is a feature. Sometimes it's an operational tweak, a better metric or a mindset shift that changes how people work. You'll care more about the outcome than about what shape the solution takes. What you'll be doing Frame real problems and find the shortest path to proving or disproving them Combine qualitative insight with quantitative data to guide priorities Work closely with design, engineering and ops to ship, learn and repeat Define success metrics that link to business outcomes Keep improving how we do product at Zen through better tools, habits and feedback loops You'll be in the thick of it: shaping, testing, talking to users, untangling blockers and helping the team focus on what moves the needle.
