Use your skills to help people when they need it most
Are you a creative problem solver who wants to make a real difference in people's lives? Do you want to help shape how the British Red Cross supports communities across the UK before, during, and after crises?
As our
Product Lead
in our UK Resilience department, you'll work closely with the Head of Strategy & Performance to translate strategic direction into deliverable improvements and solve problems. You'll shape and lead a team focused on designing and improving services that support people in crisis. You'll be a pragmatist, who understands best product management and agile practices. You'll be able to deliver and enable product development in an organisation where this is not a common way of working. You'll help us understand what communities need, develop practical solutions, and make sure those solutions are used and make a real impact. You'll bring people together across the organisation, keep things moving, and make sure we stay focused on helping those who need our support.
This is a chance to be part of a bold transformation. You'll be part of a department that's evolving to deliver across the full resilience cycle - from preparation to recovery - and we need a leader who can guide teams through change, build strong partnerships, and keep the needs of people at the heart of everything we do.
What your week might look like:
Supporting your team to deliver improvements to services that help people in crisis. Working with senior leaders to identify the next big challenge we need to solve. Meeting with partners across the sector to share ideas and learn from others. Collaborating with data and tech teams to develop new tools and ways of working. As our Product Lead you'll have:
Experience leading teams to develop and improve services or products. A strong focus on users and communities, and experience of balancing this with organisational needs. Ability to work collaboratively across teams and departments, including working with operational teams to make sure products are impactful and adopted. Familiarity with embedding agile or product development approaches, preferably in organisations where this is not a consistent way of working across the organisation. Confidence working in complex environments and leading change. Ability to advocate for BRC and the voluntary sector's role in building resilience. Interested?
