In addition, you will:

  • Partner with UX and UI designers, Business Analysts, Delivery Managers and Engineering leads to keep the backlog refined and ready for delivery.
  • Manage dependencies and support sequencing, release planning and timely product decisions.
  • Confirm delivered features meet agreed requirements and review their performance after launch.
  • Use analytics, member feedback and research to identify opportunities for improvement.
  • Build strong relationships across Velocity and Virgin Australia to create connected digital experiences.

 

You’ll be great in this role if you:

  • At least three years’ experience in digital product ownership or product management.
  • Experience owning a digital product roadmap and prioritising competing business, customer and technical needs.
  • Experience working in agile delivery teams alongside designers, engineers and delivery specialists.
  • The ability to turn strategy and business needs into clear, actionable product requirements.
  • Confidence using analytics, customer insights and research to make decisions and measure results.
  • Strong commercial judgement and the ability to balance value, effort, risk and product reliability.
  • Strong stakeholder management and influencing skills.
  • A qualification in business, digital, technology, product management or a related discipline, or equivalent practical experience.
