• Product Ownership - Strong experience of Product Ownership to deliver platform backlog, ensuring quality performance and innovation to deliver successful products.
  
• Workplace Savings (Pensions) domain knowledge - Have knowledge of the Workplace Savings domain. Understand key industry trends and how technology can be used to deliver for our customers.
