Department

As a Senior Product Manager for Mobile Platforms, you will be part of a world class team in transforming the ways viewers consume BBC content.

Programmes & On Demand is responsible for BBC iPlayer and the BBC’s Radio & Music proposition on PC, Mobile and TV. The team also builds services used across the BBC including search, media playback, user authentication (ID) and social. In Salford, the team is focussed on Mobile and Interactive TV product development including building common mobile applications and supporting services.

Though the team’s products already rank among the most popular in the UK, we see a great deal of creativity and growth in the future. In partnership with the BBC’s editorial teams, we will transform the way media is consumed and create experiences that weren’t possible in a traditional broadcast environment.

Role

You will use your expertise in media and technology to promote platform capabilities and opportunities to internal stakeholders within the BBC.

You will constantly use data and research to improve and refine current products while your strategic insights will help redefine the future of online media through journeys and experiences the BBC is uniquely positioned to deliver.

Candidates should have proven experience delivering technology products in close collaboration with engineering teams. Candidates should also be natural leaders who partner strongly with internal and external stakeholders in a variety of roles.
