​

We are hiring a Digital Product Owner to join the digital team of an established financial services organisation in Dubai as they push through a major phase of their digital build.

​

This is a genuine ownership role for someone who wants to take one product from concept to a live release, not sit at arm's length managing a roadmap.

Discover the Company

You will be joining a well established business partway through a serious digital transformation, standing up new products across several of its lines. Rather than experimenting at the edges, they are investing properly in a growing digital function of product owners, analysts and delivery managers. It is a real build phase, with proper backing and a clear appetite to do things well.

​

Discover the Role

The focus here is one specific product, owned end to end. You will handle the technical detail and the delivery, turning business needs into something engineering teams can build against. This sits apart from the delivery managers who track progress across every project, because your remit is depth on a single product rather than breadth across many. As the current work matures, the role is expected to grow into wider strategic product work, so there is a clear path forward.

​

Discover the Responsibilities

• Own one product from first idea through to launch, taking full responsibility for its delivery

• Turn business needs into clear user stories, specifications and prioritised backlog items

• Gather requirements from stakeholders and spot chances to improve the product

• Run the product in an Agile way, leading sprint planning, stand ups, reviews and retrospectives

• Act as the main point of contact between engineering, internal teams and stakeholders

• Work with engineering on test plans so releases are solid before they ship

• Track the right metrics and feed what you learn back into the product

• Oversee product support so user issues are resolved quickly and properly

Discover the Requirements

• At least 8 years in a product owner or similar role, ideally within Agile teams. This is a firm floor, not a nice to have.

• Real exposure to the insurance world, whether from inside an insurer or through consultancy work with financial services clients.

• Strong communication skills, because you will be moving across a busy organisation and working with many people. This one matters a great deal.

• Comfort with AI and where it is heading. Hands on experience is welcome, but a solid theoretical grasp is enough.

• Confidence with the usual product tools and ways of working, such as Agile, Scrum, JIRA and Confluence.

• A technical background is welcome, as long as those tools are familiar to you.

• A degree in computer science, engineering or a related field is useful.

​

Discover the Benefits

Up to AED 35,000 per month, plus a discretionary annual bonus.

Medical cover for you, your spouse and up to three children, plus life insurance.

Annual flight allowance paid as cash after your first year.

Hybrid working.

If you want to own a product properly, from the first idea through to something live and being used, and grow it into strategic work over time, this is a strong move.
