About the Role

We are seeking a Product Manager to lead the design, development, and delivery of technology products supporting NextEnergy Group’s asset management and investment management functions. This role acts as a key bridge between business stakeholders and the engineering, data, and delivery teams. You will translate business needs into technology products, own the roadmap, drive delivery, and ensure genuine business value creation. We are looking for a technology product professional with commercial and sector awareness to engage credibly with stakeholders and make sound product decisions.

Responsibilities

• Define and own the product roadmap for technology solutions serving asset management and investment management stakeholders.
• Maintain a transparent, evidence-based roadmap balancing business outcomes, technical constraints, risk, and delivery capacity.
• Lead build vs. buy assessments for asset monitoring, performance analytics, and investment reporting tooling.
• Ensure owned products contribute measurably to NextEnergy Group’s strategic goal of becoming a data-driven, technology-led business.
• Work closely with asset management and investment management teams to understand workflows, commercial priorities, and pain points, translating these into clear product requirements.
• Understand the commercial and financial context of the business to ground product decisions in business value.
• Run discovery, user research, and stakeholder workshops to surface and validate requirements.
• Manage stakeholder expectations proactively, providing regular updates on progress, trade-offs, and delivery timelines.
• Translate strategy into product epics and user stories with clear acceptance criteria, and manage the product backlog in Azure DevOps.
• Lead agile ceremonies with cross-functional squads and coordinate with the PMO on dependencies, timelines, and communications.
• Drive delivery to time and quality, escalating risks and blockers early and resolving them decisively.
• Oversee handover, user enablement, and adoption of new products and system enhancements.
• Identify opportunities to embed AI and analytics capabilities into asset management and investment management products.
• Partner with data and AI teams to define requirements and ensure responsible use of operational and financial data.
• Partner with compliance, security, and data governance colleagues to ensure products adhere to policy, maintain appropriate audit trails, and meet regulatory obligations.
• Monitor and mitigate product-related risks throughout the product lifecycle.
• Stay current on relevant regulatory developments in the energy sector and ensure these are reflected in product planning.
• Evaluate and manage third-party technology vendors and delivery partners across the asset monitoring and investment analytics space.
• Run structured vendor assessments, support commercial negotiations, and hold partners accountable to contractual commitments.
• Run steering forums with decision-ready materials suitable for both operational and investment management audiences.

Requirements

• Working knowledge of the renewable energy or infrastructure sector.
• Commercial acumen: able to connect product decisions to business outcomes, understand how assets generate returns, and engage credibly with stakeholders on financial and operational metrics.
• Strong product instincts: able to identify the right problem to solve, scope it clearly, and build a compelling case for prioritization.
• Demonstrated ability to translate complex business requirements into well-structured, deliverable technology products.
• Experience leading delivery in an agile environment, with a track record of shipping products on time and to quality.
• Credible stakeholder manager — comfortable engaging with senior business stakeholders and translating their needs without deferring to them on product decisions.
• Excellent communication skills: able to present clearly to non-technical business stakeholders and technical delivery teams alike.
• Ability to identify and frame opportunities for AI and analytics to add measurable business value.
• Delivery focus with strong critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
