Senior Product Manager

At Loftware, It’s all right there — the scale, the expertise, and the opportunity to grow your career in a business-critical industry. 

Job Title: Senior Product Manager  

Possible locations:   

• Reading, United Kingdom (hybrid or remote) 

Please note: Visa sponsorship is not available for this role.  

This role is about owning a product end-to-end and ensuring it succeeds in the market. As Senior Product Manager, you'll take full ownership of a product — its strategy, backlog, and commercial performance — and see it through from first customer insight to measurable business results. If you're energized by setting multi-quarter direction, leading through influence, and being accountable for outcomes rather than just delivery, this is built for you. 

As a Senior Product Manager, you'll own a full product across multiple teams with minimal oversight — setting its multi-quarter strategy, leading discovery, roadmap, and delivery, and answering for adoption, retention, and commercial performance. This is an individual contributor role for someone who wants to lead cross-team work through influence rather than authority and mentor less experienced product managers along the way. 

You'll be the internal and external authority on your customers' user job tasks, and a credible partner to Engineering, Design, Product Marketing, Customer Success, and Sales — turning customer insight into product decisions and business cases that teams can rally behind. 

The compensation range for this role is £105k - £125k per year, based on a full-time schedule.  

This range reflects what we reasonably expect to pay for this position. Where an offer falls within the range depends on factors including: relevant experience, skills, qualifications, and work location. 

Key Responsibilities 

Product Strategy & Vision  

• Own the end-to-end backlog, strategy, and commercial performance of a full product, working across teams with minimal oversight. 

• Set multi-quarter product strategy and represent it in company roadmap reviews. 

• Balance customer needs, business outcomes, and technical feasibility in all decisions, arbitrating architecture trade-offs in higher-complexity domains. 

• Act as the internal and external authority on customer user job tasks for the product area. 

Customer & Market Leadership 

• Deeply understand customer workflows, pain points, and desired outcomes. 

• Set the discovery and experimentation standard for the product, running structured tests to de-risk significant bets. 

• Define the metric tree for the product and make evidence-based kill/continue decisions. 

• Shape competitive positioning with Product Marketing, and represent the voice of the customer in cross-functional forums. 

Execution & Delivery  

• Lead discovery, roadmap, and delivery for higher-complexity domains — owning product outcomes such as adoption, retention, and delivery of the committed roadmap, not just the launch. 

• Partner with Engineering leadership on architecture, build-vs-buy decisions, scalability, and technical-debt trade-offs. 

• Establish the standards, RACI, and technical governance that others follow, and resolve cross-team dependencies and risks without escalation. 

• Own the platform, API, and integration strategy for the product, and advise Sales and Customer Success on regulated-industry edge cases. 

Influence & Collaboration  

• Lead through influence, without formal authority, across Engineering, Product Marketing, Customer Success, Design, Sales, Support, and Services. 

• Influence cross-team priorities, dependencies, and sequencing. 

• Mentor less experienced product managers and act as a trusted partner to Engineering leadership. 

Outcomes & Accountability  

• Own the P&L-relevant levers for the product: pricing, packaging, attach rate, and renewal risk. 

• Build and defend investment business cases with credible revenue, cost, and TCO assumptions. 

• Define and track success using clear metrics (customer adoption, retention, business impact, quality), and own decisions and outcomes for the product. 

Qualifications 

Required 

• 8+ years of related experience in Product Management with a Bachelor's degree; or 6+ years with a Master's degree; or a PhD with 3+ years of experience; or equivalent experience. 

• Proven ability to own a full product end to end — backlog, strategy, and commercial performance — across teams with minimal oversight. 

• Strong strategic thinking, with the judgment to set multi-quarter strategy and resolve complex issues involving many variable factors. 

• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, including building and defending investment business cases. 

• Demonstrated ability to lead without formal authority, influencing cross-team priorities and dependencies. 

• Strong analytical skills and data-informed decision making, including defining metric trees and running structured experiments. 

Preferred 

• Experience in SaaS, cloud platforms, or enterprise software. 

• Experience in Supply Chain. 

• Experience working with global teams and customers. 

Success Metrics  

• Measurable product outcomes: adoption, retention, and delivery of the committed roadmap. 

• Clear multi-quarter product strategy, represented and endorsed in company roadmap reviews. 

• Cross-team dependencies and risks resolved without escalation, with strong cross-functional alignment. 

• Healthy commercial performance of the product: pricing, packaging, attach rate, and renewal risk. 

• Evidence-based investment decisions and growing product management capability among the people you mentor.
