  • Collaborate with Product Managers, Engineers, Architects and external partners to support delivery and adoption. 
  • Support backlog management and prioritisation where required across Loyalty and Promotions initiatives. 
  • Drive business readiness, stakeholder engagement, training and operational adoption activities. 
  • Use customer, commercial and operational data to inform product decisions and identify improvement opportunities. 
  • Work closely with Product Owners from across Kingfisher banners to share knowledge, learn from successful implementations, and contribute to the resolution of cross-banner challenges.

What we need:

  • Experienced Product Owner with a track record of delivering complex products and building deep expertise across business processes, customer journeys and technology platforms.
  • Skilled at translating technical capabilities into clear business outcomes, customer value and actionable product requirements.
  • Strong communicator and stakeholder manager, able to build trusted relationships, influence decision-making and provide constructive challenge across business and technology teams.
  • Confident working collaboratively with delivery teams, programme stakeholders, suppliers, external partners and Product Owners across the wider Kingfisher Group.
  • Experience operating within large-scale transformation programmes, managing dependencies and navigating complex organisational change.
  • Passionate about customer engagement, loyalty, promotions, CRM and customer experience, with a keen interest in how technology can drive business growth and customer value.
