Product
From Product Builders and Product Managers through to CPOs, we help startups and scaleups build the teams that shape what gets built, why it matters and how it grows.
An early Product hire may need to work alongside a founder to find product-market fit with limited data. As the business grows, the challenge becomes setting priorities and helping more teams deliver together.
We understand the business behind the product
Product hiring starts with understanding where the business is going, what the product needs to achieve and how the team needs to evolve.
We get into the detail of your growth plans and product priorities, including what you know about customers, which decisions still sit with the founder and what the team can realistically deliver. That shapes what this hire needs to own from day one
We help shape the hire first
One critical hire or a wider Product team, permanent or contract. Our complimentary Foundations discovery workshop helps shape the brief, seniority and team structure around the decisions Product needs to own, the founder’s involvement and how the team will evolve.
Great Product people bring more than experience
The right Product hire needs more than the right companies or titles on their CV. We look at how people think, make decisions, work across teams and balance customer needs with commercial priorities, alongside personality, potential and the culture they are joining.

FAQs
When should I be looking for a new role in Product Management?
Sometimes it’s hard to know whether it’s time to leave a role. These are a few signs that it might be time to look for something new:
The feel of the role is stagnated. You aren’t excited anymore. There are 100s of roles out there, and if you’re not being challenged, you should bring this to your manager. Their response will show you where your future stands with this current organisation.
You’re looking for more flexibility. Most roles nowadays do have some degree of hybrid working. The flexibility allows you to plan your week in and out of work – meaning you can do more for yourself.
Your role is no longer challenging. Maybe you’ve been in your current role for several years and worked your way through the business, there might not be a lot that you can get involved in from a learning perspective.. but are you sharing this knowledge with junior members of staff? If this is something that you want to and aren’t given the opportunity to manage, you should mention this.
You lack a mentor. Career progression is easy with a little direction. Find out what your employer’s long term plan is for you, and the business. If it’s limited, it’s a good time to look at companies that can offer training and development.
Your workplace is toxic. We’ve all had a boss we don’t see eye to eye with. But there is no room for discrimination/ bullying or inequality in any workplace. You are at work most of your day, and no company is worth staying at to destroy your mental health.

What’s the best way to demonstrate my impact on product success in an interview?
To effectively showcase your impact, use the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) to structure examples that highlight your role in driving product success. Describe specific challenges you faced (Situation), what you were responsible for achieving (Task), the actions you took to resolve the challenges or fulfill the objectives (Action), and the measurable outcomes (Result) that demonstrate your impact.
Focus on metrics such as revenue growth, user acquisition, retention rates, or engagement improvements. For further detail, our article on the interview preparation goes a bit deeper.
