Lead Product Manager

Lead Product Manager

At Qflow, we're on a mission to transform one of the world's most impactful industries: construction. Our platform provides easily captured, data-driven insights that empower construction teams to make better decisions, improving quality, increasing efficiency, reducing costs and helping to mitigate project risk.

By combining construction expertise with software engineering, artificial intelligence and cutting-edge data science, we deliver real-time visibility into materials, waste, quality, cost and carbon throughout the construction lifecycle.

Having established Qflow as a trusted solution across many of the UK's leading Tier 1 contractors, developers and utilities companies, we're now expanding rapidly across North America and international markets. Today, our platform is deployed across billions of pounds worth of construction projects worldwide, and we're continuing to grow at pace.

We're looking for an experienced product leader to help shape the next generation of Qflow's platform. You'll work at the heart of the business, translating customer problems into valuable product experiences and partnering closely with Engineering, Design, Data and Commercial teams to deliver products that create measurable impact for our customers.

If you're naturally curious, love solving customer problems and enjoy turning complexity into simple, scalable products, we'd love to hear from you. This is an opportunity to influence a product that's transforming one of the world's largest industries while working alongside a collaborative, ambitious team during an exciting period of growth.

Our Product team exists to ensure we're solving the right problems for our customers while delivering products that create measurable business value.

As a Product Lead, you'll own the product end-to-end, working closely with both the Senior Leadership Team (SLT) and Engineering to translate strategy into delivery. You'll develop a deep understanding of our users, balancing customer needs, commercial priorities and technical considerations to maximise the impact of every sprint.

You'll collaborate daily with Engineering, Customer Success, Sales and Data teams to continuously validate problems, prioritise opportunities and deliver features that delight customers.

This role offers the opportunity to shape both what we build and how we build it, contributing to the evolution of our product practices as Qflow continues to scale internationally.

What You'll Be Doing

Product Leadership

• Own and prioritise Qflow's product roadmap, ensuring work aligns with company objectives and customer value.
• Make informed prioritisation decisions balancing customer needs, commercial impact, technical complexity and delivery capacity. You will ensure transparency in prioritisation decisions and clear communication with the wider team on impacts and expected results.
• Manage and mentor a junior product manager, and ensure their work aligns with the wider vision.

Customer Discovery & Product Thinking

• Build a deep understanding of customer workflows, pain points and opportunities.
• Partner with Customer Success and Sales to gather qualitative and quantitative customer insight.
• Validate assumptions through customer research, product usage data and experimentation.
• Continuously refine product opportunities based on evidence rather than opinion.

Cross-functional Collaboration

• Work closely with Engineering to clarify requirements, remove ambiguity and support efficient delivery.
• Collaborate with Engineering to create user journeys and intuitive product experiences.
• Partner with Data teams to define success metrics and measure product outcomes.
• Work alongside Commercial teams to ensure customer feedback informs roadmap decisions.

Delivery & Continuous Improvement

• Support sprint planning, backlog refinement and product demonstrations.
• Help identify delivery risks and proactively work with Engineering to remove blockers.
• Monitor feature adoption and customer outcomes after release.
• Drive continuous improvements to product processes and ways of working.

Product Communication

• Clearly communicate priorities, roadmap updates and product decisions across the business.
• Act as a voice of the customer, and an ambassador for the Product team, ensuring stakeholders understand the "why" behind decisions.
• Support internal enablement by helping teams understand new features and customer value.

What We Are Looking For:

Essential

• 5+ years' experience as a Product Lead, Product Director, Senior Product Manager or similar product role within a SaaS environment.
• Strong experience working with Agile software development teams.
• Proven ability to manage and prioritise complex product backlogs.
• Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to translate technical concepts into simple language, and bridging the translation gap between low level detail, and high level strategy.
• Excellent attention to detail and experience in working in data-driven environments; both operationally day-to-day as part of your role, as well as products where data is a core component. In Qflow, data IS our product, so you'll need to have a high level of data literacy.
• Experience translating customer problems into actionable product requirements.
• Strong analytical thinking with confidence using data to support decision-making.
• Comfortable working with ambiguity in a fast-moving scale-up environment.
• A collaborative mindset with the ability to build trusted relationships across Product, Engineering and Commercial teams.
• Passion for building products that solve real customer problems.

Nice to have

• Experience working within Construction Technology, Engineering or B2B SaaS.
• Familiarity with AI-enabled products or data-driven software platforms.
• Experience working with product analytics tools.
• Experience collaborating with distributed engineering teams.
• Understanding of UX research and experimentation techniques.

You'll Thrive Here If…

• You're relentlessly curious about customers and how they work.
• You ask "why?" before jumping to solutions.
• You enjoy balancing strategic thinking with hands-on delivery.
• You're comfortable making decisions with imperfect information.
• You communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical audiences.
• You care about outcomes more than outputs.
• You enjoy working in a collaborative environment where Product and Engineering solve problems together.
