Product Manager - Identity

Tesco's Identity platform is the authentication and access layer serving tens of millions of customer accounts across five markets — the backbone that lets every customer sign in, stay secure, and trust the systems behind every interaction with Tesco, in-store and online.

We're looking for a Product Manager to own strategy and roadmap for a core part of that platform's data foundations: the systems that master, structure, and serve the datasets underpinning identity s is a genuinely technical product role — you'll work daily with engineering on legacy-to-modern migrations, large‑scale data system design, and the quality and reliability that tens of millions of customers depend on without ever thinking about it.

You’ll be joining at a time of real technical evolution for the platform, modernising foundational systems, migrating away from legacy architecture, and building for scale and resilience as Tesco's identity data needs keep growing. So exciting times!

This role can be based from our London Farringdon or Welwyn Garden City office
