Product Owner - Harmondsworth, United Kingdom - myGwork
Description
This inclusive employer is a member of myGwork – the largest global platform for the LGBTQ+ business community.
Company Description
The British Airways (BA) Delivery team is part of BA Digital within the International Airlines Group (IAG), one of the world's leading airline groups and owner of some of the biggest brands in the sky.
Our vision is to become the most trusted digital airline. We seek to delight our customers, enable our colleagues, accelerate business performance, increase shareholder value, and protect our business through the innovative and agile use of technology and data.
To harness our full potential across our customer, operational and colleague journeys, as well as our enabling domains, platforms and programmes, we are changing our ways of working and transitioning into a product-led organisation at scale.
Together we are building a better BA (British Airways).
Job Description
As a Product Owner, you will be leading one of our Product teams in one or more of our domains within the BA Digital Delivery Team to bring agile change to life. We are doing this by role modelling and embedding agile ways of working and applying SAFe as an overarching umbrella.
Purpose of the role
As a Product Owner, you will be an integral member of our Agile Team, acting as the primary voice of the customer. Your role is pivotal in liaising with Product Management and various stakeholders, including fellow Product Owners, to ensure that the team's direction is aligned with the broader organisational goals and customer needs. With a keen understanding of both the conceptual and technical aspects of product features, you will be entrusted with the vital task of defining Stories and meticulously prioritising the Team Backlog.
Your contribution as a Product Owner extends beyond mere backlog management. You play a crucial role in amplifying the value generated by the team(s). By ensuring that the Stories are not only well-defined but also resonate with the users' requirements, you guarantee that they adhere to the Definition of Done. Your focus remains unwavering on delivering quality and value, ensuring that each feature or component developed is both functional and in line with the users' expectations. Your proactive approach and commitment to excellence make you a cornerstone in the product development process, driving both innovation and user satisfaction.
Accountabilities
We are looking for individuals with ability to provide both a technical and a commercial focus, with the ability to analyse and understand complex business processes, drive change assessment, and identify opportunities for improvement, simplification, and re-usability.
We are looking for individuals able to navigate through uncertainty, with high agility and adaptability that work smarter not harder.
This role may require some travel and working from multiple sites/locations within UK and internationally. You must be willing and able to travel to participate in meetings, workshops and other related activities.
