We’re reshaping our Digital, Technology and Data function for the future, creating new opportunities, strengthening our capability, and building clearer, more resilient ways of working so we can deliver even better services for our Co-op, our colleagues, members and customers.
We're looking for Lead Product Managers to join our Product team and help us shape the technology and experiences that support colleagues across Co-op.
