The Ministry of Justice is recruiting an Associate Product Manager to join its Criminal Justice System (CJS) Spine team, a small, ambitious group working at the heart of one of the most complex systems in government.
What you’ll be doing
Working as part of a multidisciplinary product team, you’ll:
- Spend time with frontline staff and users, understanding how services work in reality
- Identify the problems that matter most and help shape them into clear product opportunities
- Turn insights into hypotheses and ideas, testing what works through pilots and experimentation
- Help prioritise what the team builds, focusing on impact, evidence and user needs
- Collaborate with engineers, designers, researchers and policy colleagues
- Measure outcomes and iterate products to continually improve them
- Support delivery of products that cut across organisations, systems and teams
Who this role is for
There’s no single route into product management, and this role is designed with that in mind.
You might come from:
- A digital or tech background
- Policy, operations or service design
- Another role where you’ve improved systems, services or processes
What matters most is that you:
- Are curious and enjoy problem‑solving
- Can think clearly about complex systems
- Like collaborating with others
- Are comfortable learning in ambiguity and taking ownership
If you’re excited by turning ideas into practical improvements, you’ll feel at home here.
