Product Manager - Near Edinburgh - Circa 80K plus Bonus

Hybrid - 2/3 days in office per week plus international travel a few times per year

Lorien's longstanding client based near Edinburgh, a leader in their industry with an award-winning product line making a huge difference around the globe, is looking for a Product Manager well versed in regulated settings and technical product delivery to join their team. The role focuses on the company's core, globally distributed product portfolio and this role will have an impact on a wide scale involving occasional travel (a few times per year) to contacts in the US, Asia and mainland Europe.

This is a senior role responsible for owning the commercial outcome of regulated, complex products end-to-end: turning clinical and market insight into a roadmap, keeping delivery on track across several departments, and making sure nothing ships without the right regulatory signoffs.

Role overview:

Roadmap and requirements:

Shape the product roadmap in partnership with senior leadership, balancing company priorities against regional demand and commercial targets
Turn clinical, customer and market signals into requirements documents that the business can actually build against, including the harder calls on what gets cut
Keep plans current as scope, risk or new information shifts, rather than treating the roadmap as fixed once writtenDelivery and governance:

Pull together the right people from engineering, quality, operations, service and commercial functions for each release, and keep them aligned day to day
Own the backlog and release-readiness process, applying the organisation's formal product commercialisation framework rather than working around it
Spot risk early, whether it's technical-/regulatory-/security-/supply-related, and either fix it or get it in front of the right person fastCommercial and regulatory input:

Build and track budgets for your products, including cost-to-completion visibility, and prioritise spend accordingly
Bring enough commercial fluency (margins, revenue mechanics, pricing levers) to hold your own in business-case discussions with Finance and Commercial
Feed accurate input into regulatory and legal paperwork, such as change-impact assessments and labelling, working closely with RA/QA rather than owning that expertise yourselfStakeholders and continuous improvement:

Be the clear voice on what's happening, why, and when, for both internal teams and external stakeholders
Translate customer conversations into product positioning and a case for why your solution wins against alternatives
Use field feedback and real-world usage data to keep pushing usability and satisfaction forward, even after launch
Run meetings that end with clear owners, decisions and next steps rather than open threadsWhat we're looking for:

A degree in a technical or business subject, or equivalent track record (and a product or project management qualification would be preferable but not necessary)
A track record of hands-on technical product management and delivery, including oversight across the entire product lifecycle including concept stages and vision, performance, workflow, end user consideration, and more
Good relationship management skills with stakeholders and ideally other contacts such as distributors, etc.
Comfortable prioritising when the pressure is on, and confident presenting to both internal leadership and external partners/customers
Able to ask sharp, technically credible questions rather than taking specs at face value and comfort speaking with technical teams with credibility gained through previous work
A natural, relatable collaborator who can get buy-in from people who don't report to you, from senior management down
Strong written and spoken communication, and the resilience to keep plans on track when priorities shiftWhat's on offer:

Generous annual bonus and salary reviews, hybrid working and flexible start/finish times, comprehensive benefits package, and more
Opportunity to work on genuinely innovative technology and products with global reach, involving some travel to the tune of a few times per year to sites in the US, Asia and mainland Europe
Collaborative environment with highly skilled Engineers and other technical specialists
Professional and technical development opportunities within a growing and successful organisationIf you're passionate about applying your product management skills to solve new challenges and want to join an organisation at the forefront of innovation, we'd love to hear from you. In return, our client offers their employees ample opportunities to flourish professionally, give back to the community in a very direct and rewarding way, and enjoy a range of different benefits with people at the centre, such as flexible and hybrid working arrangements, a generous bonus, annual salary reviews, and more.
