Product Director – AI & Digital Learning

We’re partnering with a global education organisation undergoing a major transformation in how technology supports teaching and learning across its network of schools.

Over the past few years, the organisation has been building a digital learning ecosystem – developing a suite of tools that support teachers, students and school leaders through technology, data and increasingly AI-enabled platforms.

The next phase is about scale, adoption and continued product development.

This role will take ownership of the vision, product strategy and delivery behind that ecosystem, driving the evolution of multiple learning tools, ensuring they continue to grow, mature and deliver real impact across schools globally.

It’s a rare opportunity for a senior product leader to shape how AI and digital tools support education at scale, leading both product development and the organisational change required to embed them successfully.

What you’ll be doing:

Owning the vision and strategy for a growing suite of digital learning tools, ensuring they evolve into a coherent product ecosystem
Leading product development across multiple platforms, taking tools through ongoing alpha, beta and live phases as they continue to mature
Driving the next stage of growth and adoption, ensuring products are embedded effectively across schools and users
Acting as the product owner for the organisation’s AI-enabled learning strategy, identifying where emerging technologies can enhance teaching and learning
Working closely with schools, teachers and internal teams to ensure product development reflects real user needs
Balancing innovation with practical implementation, ensuring tools are usable and scalable across diverse environments
Leading both product teams and change management initiatives, helping organisations adapt to new technologies and ways of working
Holding the long-term product vision, ensuring continued development and evolution of the platform ecosystem

What they’re looking for:

Senior product leadership experience, ideally building or scaling digital platforms
A track record of driving product development and owning product strategy end-to-end
Experience leading large-scale digital or organisational transformation
Strong capability in change management and stakeholder leadership
Comfort operating in environments where products are evolving, testing and iterating through different stages of maturity
Strategic thinking combined with the ability to drive delivery and execution
Experience in EdTech or education is valuable but not essential – strong product leaders from other sectors will absolutely be considered
Interest in AI, emerging technologies and their real-world application
