Volume is an award-winning full-service agency. We help our clients achieve their business objectives, from brand/product launches, learning and development, to lead generation.

As a leader in experiential AI, artificial intelligence, humanoid robots and virtual/mixed/augmented reality, we are steering our clients through transformative times. The rules of customer and staff engagement are changing, and their demanding expectations have never been higher.

We are also specialists in Instructional Design and e-Learning, creating innovative training content for global technology firms. We develop bespoke Learning Management Systems that support these companies globally.

And we're now recruiting for a Product Owner/Technical Consultant to join our highly-driven team to represent the fusion of technology with business insight and work to build bespoke software applications that are tailor-made to suit our client's needs.

About the role:

As a Product Owner/Technical Consultant, you will work confidently alongside account managers and clients, using your knowledge of technology and software development to formulate effective solutions (mostly learning solutions) that meet our clients' expectations.

Your role will be to analyse client requirements, identify and implement suitable technological solutions that anticipate future client needs. With highly technological knowledge, you should have the skills to look at clients' business problems and come up with creative ideas that exceed the original proposal. Playing a key role in turning client visions into effective processes, you will manage the entire lifecycle of projects to ensure they are technically sound, fit-for-purpose and delivered on time and to the highest standards.

The role is ideal for an experienced developer who is looking to move away from implementing solutions to devising them, or for a passionate and technically-minded project manager.

What we're looking for:

This person will need to be a good persuader and influencer who has a keen interest in technology, strong desire to learn and keep on top of the latest trends. They'll need to have the ability to interact with clients and account handlers at a variety of levels across functions, as well as manage client expectations to ensure their satisfaction.

Additionally, the ideal person will have:

2-3 years' experience in similar type of role or 4-6 years' development experience

Experience managing backlog with stakeholder priorities and have written user stories

Experience within a tech company or tech within an agency

A quick-learner with the ability to quickly develop insight into the client and subject matter in a fast-paced, rapidly-changing environment

Strong knowledge of software development practices - the lifecycle and methodologies

Ability confidently communicate technical aspects of a project to people of all levels of technical ability

Knowledge and understanding of web and mobile technologies and their application

Experience in technical documentation writing and maintenance

Any of the following would be beneficial:

E-Learning - experience having worked on the development of learning management systems or within the e-learning industry

Technical analysis, problem-solving and creative-thinking skills

Project initiation, management and status reporting

At Volume, we offer a wide range of benefits to support you and your work-life balance with us. You can read the list of benefits available via https://www.volumepeople.com/benefits/
