Job Title Product Owner - Archer Platform Job Description How do you create direction and make tough trade-offs in a 36-hour role within one of Rabobank’s most complex risk domains?

You operate primarily at a strategic and conceptual level. In practice, this means balancing regulatory commitments, business impact, and platform scalability on a daily basis. You connect squads, stakeholders, and decision-makers across multiple organisational levels, creating alignment where priorities compete. You deliberately stay out of detail, empower Business Analysts to own content and analysis, and keep the focus on value, innovation, and end-to-end delivery. Examples from practice How does this role challenge you in your daily work? Aligning multiple Archer squads around one integrated product vision, preventing siloed optimisation and ensuring end-to-end value delivery. Accelerate innovation by bringing product vision to life and delivering tangible business value through the effective use of new technologies. Making explicit prioritisation decisions when regulatory deadlines, business needs, and long-term platform health compete.
