Lead a portfolio that helps power the energy transition
As Product Portfolio Owner, you shape the direction of a critical portfolio of technologies that support modern electricity networks. Your work helps create scalable, connected, and future-ready solutions that strengthen grid stability, support renewable energy integration, and enable the shift to cleaner power.
You join a global product management environment where you bring structure, clarity, and alignment across a broad portfolio of product platforms. In this role, you help ensure that product strategy, technical development, lifecycle planning, and compliance all move forward in a coordinated and effective way.
What you will do
You lead and govern a portfolio of product platforms across high-voltage direct current, flexible alternating current transmission systems, and AC integrated systems.
You will:
- Lead and support a community of Product Owners and compliance specialists across multiple product groups
- Build strong product management practices, governance, and ways of working that support consistency and quality across the portfolio
- Create and maintain a clear view of the portfolio, including product boundaries, interfaces, capabilities, and ownership
- Align product roadmaps across the portfolio so they support wider solution strategy and market needs
- Bring together roadmap planning, review, and updates through a clear and structured operating rhythm
- Ensure product definitions, documentation, and technical information are complete, consistent, and easy to access
- Guide lifecycle planning across the portfolio, including transitions, consolidation, and obsolescence management
- Strengthen portfolio competitiveness by balancing market demand with technology opportunities
- Support clear product positioning and technical communication for internal and external audiences
- Work with colleagues across product management, systems, engineering, compliance, and commercial teams to create a joined-up portfolio strategy
- Build and coordinate the right cross-functional approach to meet evolving product compliance and regulatory requirements
- Support supplier engagement and help align technology developments with product direction
What you bring
You bring strong experience in product, platform, or portfolio leadership within complex technical or engineered environments.
You are likely to have:
- Experience leading product or platform strategy across multiple technologies or product lines
- Experience managing or mentoring technical, product, or cross-functional teams
- A strong understanding of system architecture, interfaces, and how products come together as part of larger solutions
- Experience with product lifecycle management, roadmap planning, and portfolio governance
- Confidence working across technical and business teams to create alignment and momentum
- A structured approach to planning, prioritisation, and delivery
- Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
It would be helpful if you also have experience in grid technologies, power systems, or high-voltage environments, as well as familiarity with product compliance topics such as cybersecurity, product safety, environmental regulation, or lifecycle assessment.
Why this role matters
This is a high-impact opportunity to shape the product portfolio behind major grid infrastructure solutions used around the world. You help connect product strategy with solution needs, improve consistency across platforms, and ensure the portfolio is ready for future technology, regulatory, and market demands.
Your leadership helps create a stronger, more coherent portfolio that enables reliable and scalable solutions for customers and supports the transition to a more sustainable energy system.
What you can expect
You can expect a visible role with broad scope, international collaboration, and the opportunity to influence both strategic direction and day-to-day portfolio effectiveness. You work with experienced colleagues across product management, engineering, systems, and compliance, and you help shape decisions that have lasting business and technical impact.
