Job Description:

We are looking for a Product Manager - Innovation to join our Supply, Trading & Shipping (ST&S) team as we strive to transform and connect the global energy market. This is an opportunity to be at the center of delivering innovation and value.

The business-led innovation team (Vista) within ST&S is set up with the mission to help future-proof the organization. We set out to answer three questions:

  • How can technologies today solve yesterday’s problems faced by ST&S?

  • How can technologies of tomorrow give us a commercial competitive edge today?

  • What do we need to do/think/behave differently in a rapidly evolving business landscape?

Vista is an agile, impactful, and solution-agnostic team focused on identifying and using innovative technologies, business models, and ecosystem partnerships to address commercial opportunities.

To support the ST&S business, Vista is seeking an experienced and proactive Product Manager to lead digital product delivery in the London Canary Wharf office. We offer a hybrid working environment to enable you to integrate your work and personal life.

Reporting to the Innovation Implementation Lead, you will be empowered to:

  • Develop an understanding of the ST&S business—its workflows, strategic goals, and how Vista products and prototypes support business goals, constraints, and commercial drivers.

  • Work collaboratively with Vista Originators, Ecosystem colleagues, and ST&S partners to build strong relationships, uncover innovation opportunities, and drive ideation sessions that identify business problems and creative solutions.

  • Build a deep understanding of users and their needs, shaping clear and commercially sound business value cases behind opportunity requirements.

  • Bring design-thinking and technical know-how to define, bring together, and align product requirements (functional and non-functional) with business value.

  • Create and be responsible for the product roadmap—prioritising features, handling the backlog, and adapting plans quickly in response to shifting needs or insights.

  • Communicate progress and timelines clearly and frequently to customers, Vista leadership, and collaborators—responding to feedback in a constructive way.

  • Advocate for Agile methodologies and lead team ceremonies to drive collaborative, iterative delivery.

  • Collaborate with global colleagues across design, engineering, data science, security, procurement, and legal to deliver innovative products at pace.

  • Partner with engineering teams to ensure delivery clarity and address blockers in a timely and proactive manner.

  • Conduct user testing and feedback sessions, assess delivery outcomes, and make evidence-based decisions to enhance, pivot, or retire products.

  • Continuously seek ways to improve processes and work closely with supporting functions to evolve them in line with Vista’s innovation remit.

  • Stay informed on industry trends, competitor movements, and emerging technologies—building relationships with internal and external innovation partners to bring new ideas that keep ST&S ahead of the curve.

  • Strong commercial awareness with a sharp focus on linking business needs to roadmap priorities and identifying high-impact opportunities.
