About Scrumconnect

Scrumconnect is a leading digital transformation consultancy delivering user-centred, innovative solutions across the UK public and private sectors. We specialise in helping organisations design, build, and scale digital services that make a real impact. Our teams work closely with clients to solve complex challenges using modern technologies, agile methodologies, and a strong focus on user needs.

About the Role

We are looking for an experienced Product Manager to join a high-impact programme focused on implementing an AI solution within a large central government department. You will work at the heart of the programme, helping delivery teams onboard to the solution, providing hands-on guidance, and ensuring teams are maximising the value of AI within their services.

This is a rare opportunity to shape how AI is adopted across a significant public sector organisation, working closely with multidisciplinary teams to embed the solution effectively and drive measurable outcomes.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the product management of an AI solution being rolled out across multiple service teams, owning the product roadmap and backlog.

  • Support teams through onboarding, providing clear guidance, training, and documentation to accelerate adoption.

  • Act as the go-to expert for teams looking to understand and maximise the use of the AI solution within their specific service context.

  • Work closely with technical, policy, and delivery stakeholders to remove blockers and ensure teams are getting the most value from the platform.

  • Define and track key metrics to measure adoption, usage, and impact of the AI solution across the programme.

  • Gather and synthesise user feedback from onboarded teams to inform iterative improvements to guidance, tooling, and rollout approach.

  • Contribute to governance, assurance, and responsible AI considerations, ensuring the solution is used appropriately and in line with policy.

  • Communicate clearly with senior stakeholders, producing concise updates, roadmaps, and recommendations.

Essential Skills & Experience

  • Proven experience as a Product Manager in a digital or technology-led environment, ideally within or alongside the UK public sector.

  • Experience working with AI, machine learning, or data-driven products - either implementing, managing, or scaling them.

  • Strong understanding of user-centred design principles and Agile delivery methodologies.

  • Track record of supporting adoption and onboarding of new tools or platforms across large, complex organisations.

  • Excellent stakeholder management skills - able to engage confidently at all levels, from service teams to senior leadership.

  • Ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear, accessible language for non-technical audiences.

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to produce clear product documentation and guidance materials.

Desirable

  • Experience working within or alongside central government, particularly on digital transformation or AI/data programmes.

  • Familiarity with the GDS Service Standard and Government Design Principles.

  • Experience with responsible AI frameworks, data ethics, or AI governance.

  • APMG, BCS, or equivalent product/agile certifications.
