Senior Product Manager (Retail media) - Retail Media

Senior Product Manager – Retail Media
Hybrid | Competitive Salary + Package

Our client is a high-growth consumer platform with millions of engaged users and a rapidly scaling retail media proposition. Following significant year-on-year growth, they are now investing heavily in the next evolution of their Retail Media Network and are looking for a Senior Product Manager to help shape and scale the business.

This is not a role focused on maintaining an already mature platform. The business is looking for a highly pragmatic, commercially minded product leader who can help build and evolve retail media capabilities in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment.

The role sits at the intersection of product, commercial, data, engineering, and AI-enabled innovation — with a major focus on measurement, monetisation, automation, and scalable advertising products.

The Opportunity

Join a business at a pivotal stage of growth where retail media is becoming a strategically critical revenue stream.

• Own and shape the retail media product roadmap across measurement, attribution, sponsored products, self-serve tooling, and automation.
• Work closely with commercial leadership to evolve the retail media proposition and unlock new advertiser budgets.
• Partner daily with engineering, data, design, and analytics teams to deliver scalable monetisation products.
• Play a key role in defining how AI and machine learning are applied across retail media capabilities.
• Operate in a highly hands-on environment focused on iterative delivery, experimentation, and commercial impact.

Responsibilities

Product Strategy & Roadmap Ownership

• Define and evolve the retail media product strategy alongside commercial and product leadership.
• Prioritise opportunities across sponsored products, reporting, attribution, automation, and self-serve tooling.
• Balance short-term commercial impact with long-term platform scalability.
• Translate ambiguous business challenges into clear, actionable product direction.

Retail Media & Monetisation

• Develop products that improve advertiser performance, measurement, and campaign scalability.
• Help evolve the business from an affiliate-led model toward a broader retail media network proposition.
• Drive improvements in attribution, incrementality testing, reporting, and pricing capabilities.
• Support the expansion of new ad formats and monetisation opportunities.

AI, Automation & Product Innovation

• Identify opportunities where AI and machine learning can genuinely improve product capability and operational efficiency.
• Help shape AI-enabled tooling across reporting, optimisation, targeting, and automation workflows.
• Maintain a pragmatic, commercially grounded approach to AI implementation.
• Partner with technical teams to assess build vs buy decisions across AI and platform infrastructure.

Cross-Functional Leadership

• Work closely with Commercial, Engineering, Data, Design, and Analytics teams.
• Build strong stakeholder relationships while maintaining product integrity and strategic direction.
• Operate effectively in an environment with evolving processes and priorities.
• Bring clarity, structure, and momentum within a scaling product organisation.

Your Profile

• Strong product management experience within retail media, adtech, monetisation, marketplaces, advertising products, or adjacent consumer technology environments.
• Experience working in ambiguous or scaling businesses where processes and infrastructure are still evolving.
• Strong commercial instinct combined with pragmatic product judgement.
• Comfortable operating hands-on with engineering, data, and commercial stakeholders.
• Strong understanding of measurement, experimentation, attribution, or advertising performance products.
• Exposure to AI-enabled product development, automation tooling, or machine learning applications is highly desirable.
• Strategic thinker who can also deliver iteratively and move quickly.

What’s On Offer

• Opportunity to shape a strategically critical revenue stream within a large-scale consumer platform.
• High ownership and visibility across the business.
• Collaborative and ambitious product environment.
• Significant scope to influence product strategy, AI adoption, and commercial growth.
• Hybrid working and competitive package.
