Currently working as a Lead Product Owner with experience of working on complex products in the public sector. Use agile methodology to deliver products which meet both complex business and user needs. Currently working on digital transformation in a heavily legislated field requiring extensive engagement with legal and policy stakeholders to understand the constraints and identify ways to deliver efficiencies and benefits for internal users. Also engage widely with external users to understand their needs and share thinking on innovative approaches for the future. Whilst currently working in product management I have experience of project and programme management, delivering high quality products to time and cost. I thrive on working at pace on complex problems, seeking out solutions through stakeholder engagement, creative thinking and drawing on the skills and knowledge of a diverse team.
