And we're already trusted by customers like ASOS, Snyk, BAE Systems and the NHS. We are putting together an amazing and talented team from a diverse set of backgrounds and skillsets to drive us towards our vision. Risk Ledger is built on the respect we have for one another and our users, united by our shared values and mission. Every one of us is still learning: it's how we grow as individuals. We're curious. We're ambitious. And we're humble and honest. At Risk Ledger, we aim high to find the best solutions we can and always put our users first. The Role: We're looking for a Lead Product Manager to build on our momentum, driving impact on strategic initiatives while helping take our product practice to the next level. You'll typically own strategic, complex product areas - navigating broad problem spaces, synthesising diverse inputs and evidence to identify, deliver and validate solutions. Work will span both squad-level delivery and cross-squad initiatives, requiring you to operate at different altitudes: going deep on execution one day, stepping back to shape strategy the next. You'll need to be skilled at employing best-practice product development for our stage of growth, working within real constraints like technical debt while maintaining high velocity. Beyond delivery, you'll partner with our CPO to elevate our product practice - driving process improvements, strengthening cross-functional ways of working with Design and Engineering leads, and supporting and mentoring other Product Managers. The Team: You'll initially join one of three cross-functional teams working on our core platform. The squad focuses on helping customers review supplier data faster, make better decisions, and report outcomes back to their business. Right now we're heavily focused on the 'Review' workflow - getting the foundations right before layering in automation and AI capabilities - which will be a step-change in the value we're providing. We ship quickly & continuously in order to learn and iterate - whilst always pushing for high standards and keeping security top of mind. In the role you will: Own strategic product areas within and across squads. You'll start embedded in one of our core squads, working hand-in-hand with engineers and designers to critique bets, drive execution, and solve real customer problems. Over time, this will evolve to owning more complex areas or coordinating initiatives across multiple squads. Collaborate to deliver step-changes in value. Though established and growing, we have a huge opportunity in front of us, so we're looking to deliver big step-changes rather than incremental improvements. This will need strong collaboration both within the product teams, and across functions. Shape how we work as we scale. Partner with our CPO, Design and Engineering leads to evolve our product practice - improving how we collaborate cross-functionally, refining our approach to discovery and delivery, and establishing patterns that work for our stage of growth. Support and mentor other Product Managers. Provide coaching and guidance to our two Senior PMs, helping them navigate complex problems, develop their strategic thinking, and grow their impact. You'll have: 10+ years' commercial experience in Product Management, with significant time in early-stage B2B SaaS environments. Ideally this includes experience navigating phases of international expansion, portfolio expansion, and/or delivering step-changes in value. The ability to operate at different altitudes, shifting between strategic and tactical work as needed, while crafting compelling narratives that explain the "why" behind your bets. A bias for action, prioritising momentum and experimentation over perfection, with the ability to cut through ambiguity and move initiatives forward while managing risk appropriately. A results-driven mindset, focused on delivering measurable outcomes that align with strategic objectives, using qualitative and quantitative data to guide decisions and assess success. Strong stakeholder management across technical and commercial teams - able to translate between different perspectives, facilitate alignment, and build trust through clear communication and follow-through. Experience elevating team capability through sharing knowledge, providing thoughtful feedback, improving processes, and helping colleagues work through complex problems. You might have: Experience integrating LLMs or AI capabilities into products. Experience with international expansion and/or product portfolio expansion. Product ops experience - such as improving product data tooling or feedback management systems. Salary range The perks: Generous EMI equity package ️25 days annual leave + bank holidays Additional 30 days of unpaid leave per year to use as you wish Ad-hoc companywide time off - last year we gave everyone 'rest leave' in August and over the festive period Private healthcare with AXA Insurance - including enhanced mental wellbeing coverage Hybrid working policy, typically 2-3 days in the office Enhanced family (parental) leave - gender-neutral policy, 12 weeks paid leave 5 days Caretaker's leave Enhanced occupational sick pay All the learning resources and books you want to aid in your personal development Regular socials to unwind and have some fun
