Product Engineer

Lead Analyst (Technical) - Permanent, Hybrid London - £70,000 to £90,000 DOE

We're recruiting a Technical Analyst on behalf of an established, employee-owned UK retail and services organisation, for a permanent position sitting within their technology delivery function.

This isn't a narrow, single-domain analyst role. You'll work across a portfolio of complex, high-change programme areas, think supply chain, customer operations, and financial services, partnering closely with delivery managers, architects and senior engineers to bring clarity to genuinely complicated, cross-functional problems. No two assignments look the same, and that's by design.

The Role

• Work at both a strategic and detailed level simultaneously: covering breadth across multiple workstreams while going deep into the detail of individual pieces of work
• Partner closely with delivery managers, architects and senior engineers to shape and deliver solutions
• Facilitate workshops and bring together stakeholders across business and technology to resolve complex, interdependent problems
• Translate complex technical detail into language the wider business can act on
• Operate comfortably in ambiguity, in programme areas with a lot of moving parts and dependencies
• Contribute to a growing internal AI capability, bringing curiosity and interest even if you're not an AI specialist
• Support coaching and knowledge-sharing across the wider analyst community

What We're Looking For

Must-haves:

• Strong analyst background with genuine technical fluency, you don't need to write production code, but you need to understand what's happening technically and hold your own in that conversation
• Proven experience working across complex, multi-stakeholder change or transformation programmes
• Comfortable operating at both a high strategic level and deep into workstream detail, often in parallel
• Strong workshop facilitation and stakeholder management skills
• Comfortable with ambiguity and a fluid working pattern

Nice-to-haves:

• Retail, FMCG, or logistics sector background
• Prior exposure to or interest in AI tooling and capability

What's On Offer

• £70,000 to £90,000 depending on experience
• Permanent Partner status with employee ownership benefits, including an annual Partner bonus
• Hybrid working across two UK office locations, with travel expensed between them
• Genuine breadth of exposure across some of the most complex change programmes in the business
• Direct access to senior architects and staff engineers as part of your day-to-day
