About the role
Movem are looking for an experienced and creative Product Manager to join our team in Brighton, and help us create best-in-class SaaS products.
We need somebody to come in and help run our dev team day-to-day, structure our sprints and build the foundations for a really scalable product. This is a brand new role for us – you’ll have the opportunity to come in and create processes from the ground up and make the role your own. As our only product manager, you’ll own the product – from daily standups to long-term roadmap.
The perfect candidate will be experienced compromising between customer requests, design or user experience recommendations, and the technical implications. You’ll be right at home in Asana or Jira, and are happy to often spending a large proportion of your day liaising with colleagues.
In the short term, we believe this role requires around 50% project management and 50% product management. Like every other member of our team, you’d be expected to cover the work where your expertise fits.
However, as we grow, we see the role evolving into a more senior product position. We’ll hire a dedicated Project Manager to cover the day-to-day running of the dev team, enabling you to focus on product roadmap and strategy, helping us to scale and grow.
The right person for this role will be someone who believes in our vision for a better rental process, and is driven by disruption and innovation. As a small team, ideas come from anywhere and everywhere, and you’ll be expected to put your tools down to have group discussions about moonshot ideas.
We are open to both middleweight and senior experience levels – and are willing to discuss salary requirements based on your experience.
If you have any questions about the role or team, please don’t hesitate to email our CEO, Peter (peter@movem.co.uk), directly.
Salary £30-45k (Based on experience)
Location: Brighton, BN1
