Business Analyst/Product Owner

Role: Business Analyst/Product Owner

Location: Head office in Wallingford, Oxfordshire (WFO 3 days (Tue/Wed/Thu, WFH 2 days Mon/Fri)

Salary: Competitive

Commencing: ASAP


Company profile

Awesome Books is a bookselling business with a difference We source over 500,000 used books per week with a singular mission – to stop these books going to landfill and to allow the ideas and knowledge they contain to be shared as many times as possible. In doing so, we have a sustainable model of retailing right at the heart of the way we work. Why compel readers to buy new copies of books which already exist and can be reused? Of course, not every book has pre-loved copies available. So we offer a further 6 million books to our customers, meaning they have the full range of buying choices available at their fingertips when buying their books. We don’t stop there…for every book bought from AwesomeBooks.com, we donate a book to one of our literacy partners. This means in the act of buying something as simple as a book, our customers are powering literacy and opportunity for others where their circumstances might necessitate being given a helping hand. A passion for books, sustainability at our core and using literacy to empower others – these are our reasons for existing.


Candidate Brief

We are looking for a skilled candidate who is able to turn stakeholder requirements into a product vision. You will have experience of working in a similar role with local and remote teams. We are looking for an individual who can inspire the teams to produce their best work, by espousing a product vision and motivating the team to get behind it. As a bookselling business, it is important the candidate has a love of books and reading. Secondly, they will be passionate about sustainability. Thirdly, they should be a strongly motivated learner. We are committed to continual learning, and the successful candidate will be expected to spend around 10% of their time devoted to learning and personal development activities.


The role

As a Business Analyst/Product Owner, you will play a crucial role in bridging the gap between our business objectives and technical solutions. You will work closely with cross-functional teams to define, prioritize, and deliver features that align with our circular economy goals. Your ability to understand both business needs and technical constraints will be key to your success in this role.
