Mobile App Product Owner

Please note we only accept online applications.

Our Mobile Product Owner is responsible for the build, run and continuous evolution of our member mobile app, with a strong focus on end to end experience quality and day to day mobile delivery.

This role is ideal for someone who is currently working hands on with mobile apps and cares deeply about how real users experience them - from performance and usability to consistency, accessibility and polish.

Using a landlord and tenant model, the Mobile Product Owner acts as the landlord of the mobile app, while individual member product owners act as tenants. Tenants bring ideas, ambition and new services; the Mobile Product Owner ensures the platform is robust, coherent and experience led, so that no single feature or team undermines the overall usability, flow or integrity of the app.

This is not a gatekeeping role. It is an enabling, experience focused role. Success is measured by how quickly teams can ship confidently on mobile, how seamless and intuitive the experience feels for members across journeys, and how well the app scales as new services and features are introduced.

The role sits within the Member Product team, reporting to the Head of Member Product, and works closely with our Service Design team and Web Product Owner to deliver a joined up, user centred experience across channels.

You will have the creative freedom and accountability to shape how our mobile app feels and functions for members. This includes defining and evolving core mobile capabilities, patterns and standards that improve experience quality, support rapid delivery, and raise the bar for customer satisfaction. It means looking beyond feature delivery to obsess over the complete member journey, from first registration or enrolment through to long term engagement.

You will work day to day with a dedicated mobile development team through a strategic third party partner, alongside our internal design team, with end to end ownership of the mobile app and channel experience.

This role blends practical mobile product experience with a strong appreciation for service and experience design, and an understanding of how technical decisions directly impact usability, performance and member trust.

If you are experience driven, customer obsessed, and actively working in mobile, love solving real user problems and want to make a tangible impact on a live product, you will thrive here.

Don't worry if you think you don't have all the key skills, it might be worth taking the few minutes to apply as we're good at spotting potential. At Nest, you'll have access to a range of learning opportunities to learn, grow and build the skills you need to be successful in your role and career.
