Senior Product Manager, Built Environment

Product Management, Idox Software – Local Government

Home Based


About the role

This is a new post created to enhance our Land, Property and Built Environment Product Management team, which manages Idox’s Built Environment and Public Protection products designed for Local Government. Reporting to the Head of Product and Strategy, the Senior Product Manager will play a key role as the owner, senior stakeholder, and gatekeeper of all matters relating to the company’s Built Environment portfolio of products to ensure Idox delivers a high quality, relevant and market leading offer.


The scope of product responsibility will include, but is not limited to, products relating to Planning, Building Control, and Land Charges, and supporting technologies such as online digital channels and mobile apps. These largely involve the Uniform and Idox Cloud brands. As the Senior Product Manager, you will be responsible for a team of product owners and/or specialists covering key responsibilities including pre-sales, product analysis, requirements gathering and other activities relevant to the Built Environment domain.


There will also be a requirement to help inform the company’s strategy by acting as an evangelist of the company’s products. This includes being a voice on social media, engaging in relevant network opportunities and looking to the horizon to inform future product strategies which support the company’s growth aspirations.

Idox is a market leader in these areas so this is an excellent opportunity for a domain expert to elevate their career and make a huge impact on the Built Environment market.


The key to success will be strong organisational skills and an ability to network and engage heavily with internal and external stakeholders with a primary focus on customer outcomes. We have a talented product team where we expect a culture of pride and excellence in the products and services we offer to our customers, this is the minimum our position as market leader demands.


Key Responsibilities

  • To be the voice of Idox and therefore the market voice on all matters relating to Built Environment
  • Ownership of the overall Built Environment product strategy
  • Ownership of the Built Environment roadmap
  • Effective management of a pre-determined engineering budget
  • Continuous improvement of the customer experience by ensuring the product has a user centred design and is easily administered and implemented by professional services colleagues
  • A focus on ensuring Idox products drive more efficient back-office processes in local government but at the same time remain legislatively compliant
  • A detailed focus on functional and non-functional requirements of enterprise software products ensuring a consistent and high-quality process for requirements capture is followed.
  • The development of a documented “golden build” deployment for each major product area which represents an industry standard for Built Environment case management systems
  • Multi-stakeholder management (customers and other external stakeholders, service desk, engineering, sales, delivery, marketing)
  • Customer product engagement plans, strategy and product demonstration
  • Line management of the Built Environment product team to ensure a high performing product team
  • Ensure teams adopt Idox product management and engineering standards (Agile) by using Idox’s product management information systems
  • Regularly report on product roadmap, project progress and discrete product projects.


To be successful, you’ll need to bring:

  • A good sense of humour and an ability to think “outside the box”
  • Management experience managing direct and virtual teams
  • 5+ years of experience within the Local Government Built Environment domain as a product owner and/or Local Government practitioner
  • Knowledge and experience of Agile software product management processes with a communicable understanding of this role's responsibilities within an Agile SDLC
  • The confidence to present product ideas and roadmaps to internal and external audiences
  • The confidence to engage with customers and other external stakeholders directly or at events
  • An ability to demonstrate software products to internal and external stakeholders
  • A deep knowledge and understanding of the public sector
  • An analytical mind with an attention to detail
  • Ability to develop trusted relationships with colleagues
  • Adaptive style to managing different internal stakeholders
  • A high level of commitment and passion for achieving outstanding levels of success and service excellence
  • Has a results-driven focus with good business and commercial judgement
  • Excellent communication skills, consultative approach and able to influence others to support objectives
  • Excellent time management and prioritisation skills
  • A clean driving licence and access to a car
  • An ability to travel to different Idox office locations when necessary.
