About Us:

Planet is a leading technology company transforming payments by putting customer experience first. We offer integrated solutions that include payment processing, VAT refunds, dynamic currency conversion, and management services for merchants in the Retail and Hospitality sectors worldwide.

In recent years, we have experienced significant growth, expanding our services and global presence.

With strong private equity investors, Advent International and Eurazeo, we have the financial capital and expertise to grow our capabilities and reach through acquisitions.

Our mission is to create a world of connected commerce where payments are simple, secure, and seamless, enabling our partners to deliver exceptional experiences to their customers.

Role Overview:
As a Product Owner at Planet, you will play a critical role in shaping the future of the Planet Portal, a flagship strategic product. Your responsibility will be to define, prioritize, and guide the development of the product to meet both customer and business needs. Working closely with engineering, product, and other internal teams, you will ensure that the Portal delivers a seamless, valuable user experience aligned with our company’s vision for growth and innovation in the payments industry.

You will collaborate with stakeholders to translate business requirements into a clear product vision and backlog, making key decisions to balance priorities and optimize product outcomes. By leveraging market insights and customer feedback, you will continuously iterate on the product to ensure its success in a dynamic and fast-paced environment.

The Planet Portal is a central focus for the company in 2024 and beyond, and as the Product Owner, you will be at the heart of its success - ensuring that it evolves to meet the needs of our customers and remains competitive in the ever-growing payments market.

What you will do:

Define Product Vision and Roadmap: Develop and communicate a clear product vision and roadmap for the Planet Portal, ensuring alignment with business objectives and customer needs.
Backlog Management: Own, prioritize, and manage the product backlog by working closely with cross-functional teams (engineering, product) to ensure features and functionality are delivered efficiently and effectively.
Stakeholder Collaboration: Act as the primary liaison between stakeholders and the development team, ensuring clear communication of requirements and managing expectations.
Feature Definition: Translate high-level product concepts and business objectives into detailed, actionable requirements (user stories, acceptance criteria) that guide the development team.
Iteration Planning and Sprint Reviews: Plan and conduct iteration reviews and sprint ceremonies to continuously refine and adjust the product backlog in response to evolving customer feedback and business needs.
Market and Customer Research: Continuously gather insights from customers and the market to ensure the product’s direction remains competitive and value-driven.
Delivery Oversight: Collaborate with development teams to ensure the timely and high-quality delivery of new features, addressing any impediments that arise.

Who you are:

Education: Bachelor's degree in Business, Computer Science, Product Management, or a related field. CSPO, PSPO, or similar Product Owner certification is a plus.
Experience: Minimum of 5 years as a Product Owner or in a product management role, preferably within the payments or financial services industry.
Technical Skills: Proficiency in product management tools and software (JIRA, Confluence, or similar tools for backlog and roadmap management, and experience with Agile methodologies).
Customer-Centric Mindset: Passionate about delivering solutions that enhance the user experience and address customer pain points.
Agile Expertise: Strong experience with Agile frameworks (Scrum, Kanban) and product management tools (JIRA, Confluence).
Strategic Visionary: Ability to see the big picture and translate strategic business goals into actionable product initiatives.
Excellent Communicator: Outstanding communication and presentation skills, with the ability to effectively interact with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Collaborative Leader: Proven ability to lead and work collaboratively in cross-functional teams, fostering a culture of trust, accountability, and shared purpose.
Technical Acumen: Comfortable discussing technical concepts with engineering teams and ensuring alignment with product requirements.
