Senior Proposition and Product Manager

Join us

At Vodafone, we’re not just shaping the future of connectivity for our customers — we’re shaping the future for everyone who joins our team. When you work with us, you’re part of a global mission to connect people, solve complex challenges, and create a sustainable and more inclusive world.

If you want to grow your career whilst finding the right balance between work and life, Vodafone offers the opportunity to help you belong and make a real impact.

What you'll do

With us, you can shape the future of how customers connect, experience and enjoy our services.

As Senior Product Owner, Propositions and Product, you'll lead the definition and evolution of Vodafone’s Consumer Fixed and TV propositions, products and hardware portfolio. Working alongside the CPO and the fixed leadership team, you'll set a clear, customer-led strategic direction that turns customer insight, market dynamics and commercial ambition into a coherent multi-year portfolio strategy and roadmap.

You'll be accountable for defining the vision and strategic direction for propositions, products and hardware across the Consumer Fixed and TV portfolio, ensuring investment priorities and roadmaps support both customer needs and long-term business goals. By bringing together customer insight, commercial opportunities and technology capabilities, you'll help shape where the portfolio goes next.

You'll lead the development and evolution of propositions across the full lifecycle, from concept and validation through to launch, optimisation and simplification. Your focus will be on creating differentiated, customer-led propositions that deliver meaningful experiences while supporting Vodafone’s long-term strategic ambitions.

Working closely with Commercial teams, you'll help shape proposition economics, pricing and packaging, ensuring customer value, brand impact and commercial performance are balanced in a way that supports sustainable growth and margin objectives.

You'll own the hardware strategy and roadmap across Consumer Fixed and TV, including customer premises equipment (CPE) and in-home devices, ensuring hardware choices support proposition goals, customer experience expectations and service outcomes.

You'll define and lead the proposition and product operating model, creating clear governance, planning rhythms, prioritisation frameworks and decision-making standards. By bringing clarity to roles, responsibilities and escalation paths, you'll help cross-functional teams move with pace and confidence.

You'll also lead go-to-market strategy and end-to-end launch readiness for strategic propositions, ensuring strong cross-functional alignment, clear ownership, robust governance and high-quality delivery. From defining go/no-go criteria to resolving challenges along the way, you'll help bring new propositions to market successfully.

Success in the role means actively managing proposition and product performance across customer, commercial and operational outcomes. You'll ensure issues are identified early, performance is continuously improved and customer experience remains central across sales, onboarding, in-home usage, service and retention journeys.

As a senior leader, you'll build capability across the propositions and product function, creating an environment where teams have clear direction, accountability and opportunities to grow while contributing to broader Consumer and Fixed business ambitions.

Who we are looking for

• Experience leading and developing high-performing teams, building capability, setting direction and influencing senior stakeholders.

• A strong customer-led and product-driven mindset, with a track record of creating differentiated propositions, products or experiences that deliver long-term value.

• Deep understanding of proposition design, product strategy and portfolio evolution, including the relationship between propositions, pricing, hardware and customer experience.

• Strategic thinking skills, with the ability to simplify complexity and focus on what matters most.

• Confidence making decisions in fast-moving environments where priorities often need balancing

• A data-driven approach, using evidence and insight to inform decisions rather than relying on opinion alone.
