Cardiff, United Kingdom LDMS Full time

**Salary**: Up to £65,000 depending on experience + up to 20% annual bonus + benefits

**About Us**:
Founded in 2018 LDMS is part of the LC Financial Holdings group, a 4 pillar organisation that has over 2,000 employees across Europe. Together, we have an impressive track record of providing world class credit expertise that spans over 20 years.

We are a Fintech company focused on digital lending software, a market growing around 18% per year and set to be worth $27 billion by 2028. Given our expertise within the company and across the group we aim to be the leader in the space, and in order to do that we need a team of people who can not just write quality code but can think, create and challenge others to come up with the best solutions for our customers. We are an ambitious team with a pretty big ‘to do list’ including improving existing products, building new ones and delivering to new markets.

As a Product Owner you will be a senior member of the Product team at LDMS, you will be responsible for organising, prioritising and refining work for our agile engineering teams. You will assist in creating, defining and delivering the product strategy, gather feature requests and coordinate the team's sprint cycles, ensuring quality and clarity of items and stories. To be successful in this role you will be able to identify and understand customer needs and communicate these clearly to the cross-functional teams to ensure smooth product releases.

Ultimately you will be pivotal in rolling out products that deliver on our company vision. You’ll be responsible for clearly communicating this vision and gathering requirements to and from a variety of stakeholders ensuring that they are aligned with the business objectives and the product Roadmap.

Support other members of the Product team and contribute to an effective product function. In this role you’ll be expected to display, and gain commitment to LDMS’ values and behaviours.

**Desirable**
- Be able to compare and contrast existing and competitor solutions to maximise relevant outcomes.
- Experience in analysing data and customer issues to draw business-relevant conclusions
- Technical background/understanding with experience of software such as Postman, Database IDEs (Dbeaver, SQL Server, sql developer)

**What’s important to us?**

It’s safe to say our passion is tech but we recognise that it’s the people that we hire and bring together who are at the heart of the organisation. Over the years we have acquired and recruited a pretty eclectic bunch with hobbies ranging from gaming to ultra marathon running, snowboarding to chess and hiking and climbing, however, what we do have in common are our values:

- Teamwork
- Merit
- Develop
- Honest
- Impactful
- Integrity

They may just look like corporate jargon but they mean something to us, and if you can relate to the above, get in touch as it there’s a good chance that you’d be a great addition to the team.
