MSc Information Management | Seeking Associate Product Roles | Shipped 9 AI Products · Built 18+ Strategic Partnerships | Ex Zaltech

Sheffield, England, United Kingdom

About

I am an incoming MSc Information Management graduate from the University of Sheffield, expected to graduate with distinction. I am looking for Associate Product Manager and Product Owner roles. I became passionate about product at Zaltech when I discovered the magic happens in the messy middle — taking vague requirements, designing systems from scratch, and giving shape to something that didn't exist before. Every product brought new learning, and that's what excites me most. Each industry, each client, each problem is a completely different puzzle. What drives me is simple: I understand the product, I can build it, and I can sell it. I've shipped 9 AI products as a PM, managed 20+ cross-functional teams, and driven business development that secured partnerships and expanded client relationships. With multiple AI products shipped across healthcare, edtech, and proptech, and real commercial experience generating pipeline and closing client relationships, I bring both sides of the table to every role I step into. Client interactions aren't overhead to me, they're the heartbeat of good product work. I love the moment a client describes a chaotic, fragmented process and you realise exactly how to solve it.
