Forward Deployed Product Manager - FMCG / Retail

£120,000 - £150,000 + Equity

  • Has deep FMCG retail or retail-adjacent product experience

  • Can own end-to-end product cycles and customer feedback loops
  • Has experience building complex B2B SaaS or operational workflows
  • Enjoys working closely with customers, engineering and founders
  • Has interest in AI-native products, automation and agentic workflows
