As a Principal Product Manager, you will act as a vital champion for our growing Product Practice, operating as a trusted advisor to executive and C-suite stakeholders. In this highly collaborative multiplier role, you won't just manage products—you will architect the very discovery and delivery frameworks that empower our cross-functional squads to succeed. If you are a holistic thinker who loves bridging the space between Product, UX, and Delivery, and you enjoy mentoring the next generation of product talent, we would love to welcome your perspective to our team.

• Data & Value Realisation: Helping teams define meaningful, long-term business metrics and nurturing advanced data capabilities across the wider organisation.

• Executive Partnership: Cultivating trusted relationships with senior client stakeholders, facilitating alignment sessions to shape multi-year goals, and mindfully managing risks.

• Mentorship & Coaching: Providing warm, impactful thought leadership to support Product Managers with their communication, navigation of complex spaces, and career progression.

• Commercial Growth: Infusing creative product thinking into new business proposals and partnering with our Client Services Group to evolve our consulting offerings.
