Product Owner / Delivery Lead

• Own the product direction and roadmap for Gtrons' digital solutions, including PowerBee (EV charging) and Vestech (residential solar), aligned to Board-approved business objectives.

• Research the market, including customers, competitors, pricing and regulations, and validate demand before committing to development.

• Prioritise initiatives using a clear, criteria-based framework and plan phased releases, with a minimum viable product (MVP) for each solution.

• Recommend to the Board, with evidence, whether an initiative should continue, be re-scoped, paused or stopped.

• Translate business needs into clear, testable requirements, including user stories, functional and non-functional specifications, and process flows.

• Define measurable acceptance criteria for every deliverable before development begins.

• Maintain a single source of truth for scope, run formal change control, and keep a requirements traceability matrix from specification to acceptance.

• Manage delivery by the external technology partner against roadmap, budget and quality expectations, and chair regular delivery governance meetings.

• Plan and govern testing and user acceptance (UAT), and formally accept or reject deliverables with proper sign-off.

• Ensure source code, documentation and knowledge transfer are handed over to the business at each milestone.

• Track delivery spend against the approved budget and flag any variance to the Board early.

• Act as the main bridge between business experts, end users and engineering teams, and resolve misalignment early.

• Set up product analytics and customer insight to support roadmap decisions.

• Report to the Board on roadmap status, delivery progress, product performance, risks and decisions required.

• Strong ability to write clear, testable requirements and measurable acceptance criteria.

• Experience running change control and acceptance with an external development vendor, agency or systems integrator.

• Strong working knowledge of software development lifecycles (SDLC) and agile delivery.

• Able to work independently and hands-on, with no team reporting to this role, and ramp up quickly using own methods and templates.

• Excellent written and spoken English, with strong communication skills at management and Board level.

• Exposure to the energy, utilities, mobility or sustainability sectors, or to consumer / B2B2C digital products, is a plus.
