- Facilitate regular prioritisation forums and collaborative discovery workshops and hackathons with senior business leaders across Trading, Marketing, Personal Shopping, Customer Care, and Operations to review feature intake, evaluate commercial value, and establish roadmap consensus.
- Translate big-picture commercial opportunities—such as brand curation versus revenue balancing, AI fashion co-pilots, regionalization, size/fit integration, and unsold inventory strategies—into clear, structured business requirements documentation and user scenarios.
- Own and curate the internal business feature backlog and prioritisation framework, ensuring commercial impact, brand guidelines, and operational trade-offs are clearly evaluated prior to technical handoff.
- Partner closely with Product Managers, Technical Leads, and Engineering teams during early discovery phases to represent business interests, challenge scope, and establish business success criteria without solutionising code.

- Senior experience in digital product management, business analysis, site operations, or strategic capability delivery within a complex, large-scale luxury or e-commerce environment.
- Strong strategic and commercial acumen, skilled at evaluating complex trade-offs such as brand curation versus conversion, automated personalisation versus manual merchandising, and customer privacy versus tailored experiences.
