You don't just manage a product backlog, you shape the direction of the work, align the people around it, and ensure that both our clients and our teams are moving toward the same goal with clarity and conviction. You demonstrate a rare combination of product craft and leadership presence. You're as comfortable in a C-suite conversation as you are in a sprint review. You actively push the boundaries of how digital products are built, and you demonstrate genuine enthusiasm for how AI and emerging tooling can change what's possible for your team, for your clients, and for the quality of what gets shipped. You bring 8-10 YEARS of experience, a growth mindset and a drive to make a lasting impact. You will thrive in this role if you are: A curious problem solver who challenges the status quo A collaborator who values teamwork and knowledge-sharing Excited by the intersection of technology, creativity and data Experienced in Agile methodologies and consulting Role responsibilities Define and own the product vision for your engagement by ensuring both the Valtech team and client stakeholders understand where the work is headed and why every decision connects back to that direction. Steer client and internal teams toward shared alignment, proactively resolving tension between business priorities, delivery constraints, and user needs before they become blockers. Build and sustain trusted relationships with senior client stakeholders, acting as a consistent, credible point of contact for product decisions, trade-offs, and strategic direction. Lead discovery and delivery in tandem by maintaining a clear, prioritized roadmap that reflects user needs, client goals, and technical realities, while keeping the team focused on outcomes over outputs. Champion the use of AI tooling across the SDLC, from accelerating research, analysis, and requirements work to improving the speed and quality of delivery cycles, and actively coach your team and clients on practical application. Demonstrate executive presence in every client interaction by communicating with clarity, confidence, and authority whether you're presenting a roadmap, navigating scope conversations, or managing escalations. Identify risks across delivery, stakeholder alignment, and commercial health; surface them early with proposed mitigations and lead the response when things need to move quickly. Own or co-own the product roadmap, using insight from users, data, and client strategy to make confident prioritization decisions and articulate the rationale clearly to all levels of the organization. Identify opportunities to extend or expand Valtech's engagement within your accounts, supporting commercial conversations with delivery credibility and strategic insight. Develop more junior product and delivery team members through active mentorship, on-the-job coaching, and modeling what great looks like. Contribute to the evolution of Valtech's Product Practice by sharing what you're learning about AI tooling, delivery approaches, and client engagement in ways that raise the bar across the team. Must have qualifications To be considered for this role, you must meet the following essential qualifications: Demonstrable experience as a Senior Product Manager in a digital consultancy or agency environment, with a track record of leading product delivery on complex client engagements. Proven ability to align cross-functional teams and senior client stakeholders around a shared product direction by navigating competing priorities, ambiguity, and organizational complexity with confidence. Strong executive presence and communication skills. Able to frame problems, present recommendations, and lead difficult conversations with clarity and credibility at all levels, from delivery teams to C-suite. Hands-on experience leveraging AI tools to accelerate the SDLC. Areas of experience may include, but are not limited to, AI-assisted synthesis, requirements generation, prototyping, documentation, delivery reporting, development, and the ability to introduce these practices meaningfully to teams and clients. Genuine curiosity about how AI and emerging technology can be applied to product work. You follow developments in the space, experiment with new tools, and bring informed perspectives on what's practical and valuable. Experience owning product roadmaps and backlogs end-to-end, with a sharp instinct for prioritization and a clear methodology for making and communicating trade-off decisions. Solid commercial awareness. Understanding of SOW management, budget health, and how delivery decisions connect to revenue and margin outcomes for Valtech and the client. Experience in Agile delivery environments, with the ability to adapt frameworks to the needs of the engagement rather than apply them rigidly. A track record of developing others, whether through formal mentorship, line management, or leading by example in a team environment. Being a natural collaborator and dot-connector, bringing people into alignment through clarity, empathy, and conviction rather than authority. Having strong intellectual curiosity, particularly about the rapidly evolving AI landscape and its implications for how digital products are built and managed. Being a confident and polished communicator, adapting communication style to different audiences and operating comfortably in both technical discussions with engineers and board-level strategy conversations. Having strong commercial awareness and strategic thinking, with the ability to identify opportunities within client relationships and help develop them responsibly. Leading by example on engagements, setting a high bar for quality, professionalism, and creative ambition in how work is delivered. Focusing on outcomes over outputs, prioritizing the real impact and value of the work rather than simply completing deliverables. Showing strong initiative and a clear bias toward action, balanced with the judgment to pause, align stakeholders, and move forward with clarity when needed.
