Vacancy
As a Product Owner you are responsible for the expansion of the added value of Relatics software. This concerns the next generation construction management software in which large complex building projects manage their project information. You work together with several development teams to put the stakeholders’ wishes (both internally and externally) into a new feature. You do this by talking to the stakeholders, taking into consideration what to develop or not, and then using this input to set up and maintain a backlog. Consequently, it is up to you to communicate this clearly to the developers. In addition, you look ahead and work together with the other product owners on a roadmap for the coming months.
If you enjoy being in touch with many different clients and users and don’t mind saying “No” sometimes, then this is the job for you.
Working week

On an enjoyable day, I see a feature that I have put on a product backlog being demonstrated by a proud development team.
On a less enjoyable day, I have to inform a stakeholder about a decision which I know they won’t like.
