The Product Owner Product - Journey & Services leads the transversal Business Analyst/Business Consultant team that designs uniform, scalable end-to-end customer journeys across the SME/Scalable product portfolio and that holds the quality bar on operational readiness. You do not own a product backlog (that stays with the Communicate & Collaborate and Secured Connectivity Product Owners) but your team’s outputs (journey designs, EPIC-ready requirements with acceptance criteria, readiness sign-off) are the inputs that make their delivery work.
Product Journey & Services is the cluster’s connective tissue. You optimise the deployment, coaching and growth of a multi-disciplinary Business Analyst/Business Consultant team ; you safeguard journey uniformity and reusable patterns across all products; you act as the authority in management discussions on journey choices and operational readiness, but also on how to scale our (managed) services. You are the single point of contact (SPOC) for journey-priority intake towards the platform teams. As a Product Owner Product - Journey & Services, you will be measured on the uniformity of journeys, on the quality of readiness (both sales and service) and handovers, on team effectiveness, and on whether product and platform teams experience one clear way of working. You provide the engine to make the scalable product portfolio a reality.
