Technical Product Manager - Planview

We're partnering with a globally recognised professional services organisation seeking a Technical Product Manager to take ownership of a critical enterprise platform used by thousands of employees across multiple international markets. This is a highly visible role sitting at the intersection of product, technology and stakeholder engagement, offering genuine ownership, strong mentorship from an established global product team, and a clear route into a long-term permanent position.

Crucially, this role requires existing hands-on Planview experience - candidates without Planview exposure are unlikely to be considered.

Title:
Technical Product Manager - Planview
Location:
London (Hybrid 3 Days in office)

Contract:

6-Month Contract (Temp-to-Perm Potential)
Salary: £600/day

We're supporting a global professional services business in the search for a Technical Product Manager to own a strategically important Planview platform across the UK and Ireland.

This is not a support or project management role. We're looking for a genuine Product Manager who can engage users, define priorities, manage a product backlog and drive platform improvements based on business value and user outcomes.

The Role:

You'll act as the product owner for a widely used Planview environment, partnering closely with an experienced global product leader based in New York.

Key responsibilities include:

• Owning and prioritising the product backlog

• Running discovery sessions with users and stakeholders

• Gathering feedback and translating requirements into product improvements

• Managing platform configuration, workflows and user enhancements

• Driving adoption, usage and platform performance metrics

• Working closely with finance, HR, BI and technology teams

• Communicating product roadmaps, updates and priorities to senior stakeholders

• Helping shape the long-term product strategy for the platform across the region

Candidate Criteria:

Hands-on Planview experience is essential.

Candidates must have previous experience owning, administering or managing Planview Enterprise One within a Product Manager, Product Owner or Technical Product Manager capacity. Unfortunately, candidates without direct Planview experience are unlikely to be suitable for this opportunity.

We're particularly interested in individuals who can demonstrate:

• Previous ownership of a Planview platform or product backlog

• Strong understanding of Planview workflows, configuration and user management

• Experience driving adoption and platform improvements

• Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills

• Experience running discovery sessions and gathering user requirements

• Ability to balance strategic thinking with hands-on delivery

Exposure to enterprise portfolio management, project portfolio management (PPM) or related SaaS platforms would be beneficial, but Planview remains the key requirement for this hire.

Why Apply?

• Genuine ownership of a strategically important enterprise platform

• High-profile role within a global organisation

• Direct mentorship from an experienced New York-based product leader

• Clear route into a permanent position

• Opportunity to influence product strategy and platform evolution on an international scale

• Collaborative, high-performing technology environment
