WHY WE THINK YOU WILL LOVE THIS ROLE

The Client Liaison (Product) plays a critical role at the front of the product lifecycle, ensuring client needs are translated into clear, actionable product opportunities before execution begins.

You will shape and refine client requests, challenging and improving them to maximize value and alignment with supply chain capability, while ensuring the right inputs are defined early. Working within a structured briefing and intake process, you will help bring clarity, consistency, and discipline to how opportunities are assessed and progressed.

Operating in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment, you will play a key role in improving the quality of incoming work, enabling teams to execute more effectively and at speed.
