About this role
Moving home in the UK is notoriously slow and stressful. Homey exists to change that — we're an established, fast-growing business using technology to streamline property transactions, and our platform is at the centre of it.
We're looking for a Product Lead to own the roadmap, prioritisation and the definition of what we build and why — leading our Product Owners, Product Support and (via our Platform Lead) the engineering and QA team. This is a genuine ownership role, not a caretaker one. You'll report directly into Homey's senior leadership and be judged on one number: monthly active users against target.
What you'll do
- Own the quarterly roadmap end to end, and make sure every feature has written requirements before a single line of code is written.
- Use monthly usage and adoption data to decide what gets built next, and kill features that don't earn their place.
- Lead and develop our Product Owners so requirements are clear enough that engineers rarely need a clarification meeting.
- Work hand-in-glove with our Platform Lead to keep the roadmap realistic against delivery capacity.
- Talk to real users, regularly and directly — you represent them, you don't guess on their behalf.
- What excellence looks like
- The platform team rarely has to ask what you meant.
- Users are spoken to directly and often, not represented by assumption.
- MAU growth is a predictable output of a roadmap that works, not a surprise.
Requirements
- A track record owning product for a B2B or B2C SaaS platform, ideally through a high-growth stage.
Comfort leading a distributed team (part of Homey's engineering and QA function is based in Colombo, Sri Lanka) and closing the gap that distance creates with clear written requirements.
- Strong commercial instincts — you can connect a feature decision to revenue, retention or margin.
- A bias for shipping and measuring over planning in the abstract.
Nice to have
- Experience in property, legal-tech or another regulated/transactional industry.
Benefits
Competitive salary (£95,000–£130,000 DOE) plus equity — we want you to own a piece of what you build.
Real autonomy over the roadmap and direct access to Homey's senior leadership.
Work at an established company with the soul of a startup, backed by a live, revenue-generating platform.
The chance to lead product for a business genuinely changing a slow, broken industry.
Hybrid working from our London hub, with regular collaboration with our Colombo team.
