Our Culture

We are a transparent organisation; we have a flat management structure with everyone in the company having an equal voice on how to improve our business. We hold “all hands” open forums where anyone can ask any question, confidentially if they choose.

Continuous learning is a mindset shared by everyone in our organisation. Whether that’s attending one of our evening catch-ups on new technologies, reading blog posts/articles, listening to podcasts, or speaking at a conference, we are all constantly looking for new ways to improve, and are enthusiastic about sharing new knowledge with our colleagues.

The Role
We are looking for someone who has experience in a product role and that shares the same values of pragmatism, professionalism and transparency that we do.
We support our clients in many ways and you will have the opportunity to work on a wide range of different internal and client projects. At times you may work on a client project from our offices with our team delivery approach on a greenfield project for a startup, or helping to build a mission-critical system for a large enterprise client. At other points you’ll work within our client's existing development team to help them to get better at organising and delivering their own software. 

We are seeing a greater need to aid our clients in defining what they should do to meet their expected goals and as a Product Manager at Codurance, you’ll be responsible for understanding and capturing the engagement requirements, running a discovery process to refine these so they can be estimated by our teams. Alongside running ideation and discovery sessions, you would be responsible for coordinating and prioritising backlogs and roadmaps for client projects and we expect you to play a key role within a team. Communication and relationship building is key for this role, as a consultant you will interface with all seniority levels of our clients during both projects and pre-sales processes.

From time to time you may need to set up ways of working and best practices with clients for product development, building out product delivery roadmaps and supporting the delivery teams to organise backlogs in order of priority. You’ll enjoy working with people in different functions across the business, and approach tasks with a conceptual and analytical approach.

You would be joining a small, growing Business Analysis/Product Manager function at Codurance. This is an opportunity for someone to further hone their product development and analysis skill set, in different sectors and projects.

As someone performing this role these are some of the things we are looking for:

• Excellent communication skills including an ability to clearly communicate and present visual representations (i.e. product roadmap, user story maps, impact maps, wire frames) to stakeholders
• Proactive attitude to situations and tasks
• Experience working with development teams on technical products and applications either in-house or at a consultancy
• Experience of interacting with and managing expectations of various stakeholders, both internal and external
• A strong understanding of, and experience working with agile methodologies

• Transparency - salary bandings and company finance are available to everyone from day one
• Personal learning budget - access to Learnerbly, our online learning and development tool, to support your personal development and career progression here
• Training - no fixed training budget. So long as the course is relevant for the company and you’ll do a lightning talk on the subject, we’re happy to pay for it
• Life cover and private medical - a ‘lump sum’ payment for life cover. Private medical cover including dental
• Employee assistance program (EAP) including access to wellbeing support (counseling, therapy)
• Pension and income protection
• Enhanced parental leave
• Cycle to work scheme
• Electric Car Scheme 

Everyone should have the right to bring their whole self to work and be celebrated for who they are. Our people are hired purely on their commitment to these values and their ambition to deliver outstanding results for our clients.
