Senior Product Manager

London, UK

About us

Loomery is a digital product agency that helps clients move fast with technology. Our teams combine grounded strategic approaches with deep technical expertise to pinpoint the right thing to build, then make it happen fast.

Since launching in 2020, we’ve worked with large businesses, universities and startups to design and deliver new digital products and grow their capabilities. Recently we’ve worked with Sky, Legal & General, IG Group, procurement software provider Proactis, branded merchandise retailer MOO.com, and the University of Exeter.

You'll join a growing, multidisciplinary team of product people, designers and engineers. We’re led by founders Brett Thornton and Tim Checkley. Brett and Tim are strategy and product leaders with over two decades of experience delivering for organisations including Apple, Visa, NatWest and Tesco. Learn more about our leadership team.

We are passionate about creating a diverse company that’s a stimulating and supportive place to work, and one that leaves the planet better than we found it. We invest heavily in our culture and prioritise psychological safety for everyone on the team.

How we work

We seek co-conspirators and love working with people who want to make a big impact and prefer to ask for forgiveness.

We learn by making, putting things in users’ hands earlier to deliver fast results.

We use the latest design, prototyping, research and development tools to slash the time it takes to get v1 out in the world.

We use the minimum amount of process to get the job done, meaning our pragmatic teams are able to move fast and ship early.

We’re coaches and collaborators, building your team's capabilities, leaving you stronger for the future.

The role

We're looking for a talented product person to support our teams and clients in the development of impactful digital products. 

In the role you will:

  • Translate ideas into strategy and execution, guiding product development for client teams from start to finish.
  • Act as a product mentor and consultant for our clients, helping them achieve a high return on investment.
  • Lead product discovery and user research for our teams, modelling and embedding effective ways of working.
  • Collaborate closely with designers and engineers to execute, ship and make product progress.
  • Contribute to new business pitches and content efforts for Loomery.
  • Coach, mentor and line manage junior team members.

The role will report into George, our Head of Strategy.  The role is hybrid: half the week in our London office and half the week at home.

The salary range for this role is £55,000 to £70,000 per year.

We are open to applications from people looking for a part-time role.

About you

You will work in cross-functional teams to get deep under the skin of our clients’ businesses, their customers, and the role technology can play for both. You will then develop strategies to create powerful experiences and commercial success, partner with designers and engineers to make that strategy reality, and help clients find ways to adapt to change faster.

You will be someone who is excited about the challenge of joining an early-stage business with a small team. We’re hoping for someone with curiosity and excitement about the latest generation of technology and is eager to discover how far they can be pushed in the pursuit of outstanding digital experiences.

  • A strong appreciation of what makes a great user experience, and how that translates into success for businesses.
  • A passion for technology and a curiosity for how it can be used to create value for businesses and their customers.
  • An itch to be part of a team that builds real solutions, rather than just ‘strategizing’.
  • Excellent client-facing skills, and the ability to present and communicate strategies, concepts and ideas clearly.
  • Perfect or near native oral and written English.

You will be:

  • Commercially aware and a natural strategic thinker.
  • Organised and proactive, able to execute with strong attention to detail.
  • A collaborative contributor, who enjoys working closely with colleagues and clients alike.
  • Flexible and adaptable, with a 'can-do' approach and solid problem-solving skills.
  • Focused on continuously developing yourself, learning new techniques and approaches.
  • Someone who thrives in a dynamic environment and will contribute to ongoing organisational improvements.
  • UK-based and commutable to London.

How we work

Our company principles are a big influence on our work:

  • Believe in the Brainweave. We believe the best ideas come from combining diverse perspectives, skills, and experiences. We encourage cross-functionality, active listening and learning from each other. We call it The Brainweave.
  • Be the highlight of your client's week. We care deeply about our clients, their goals, and organisations. We go beyond delivering great products and build strong partnerships, offer real insight and go further.
  • Just F***ing Ship It (JFSI). We start by making and we learn by shipping products and prototypes. Our approach is pragmatic and practical, valuing progress over perfect plans. If in doubt, just f***ing ship it.
  • Wonder what's next. We are curious about what’s next in technology. We explore, tinker and try things out. Then we get cracking to use it to make a world that works better.
  • Run at the hill. We look for opportunities for everyone to stretch themselves and learn rapidly in a supportive environment.
  • Cut the babble. We take complex technical topics and make them easy to understand. Simple as that.‍
  • Own the outcome. We value those who move things forward, taking responsibility to make progress and solving problems for and with others.
