⚽️ We’re on a mission to change the football transfer market.

We do this by empowering football clubs, agents and players to be successful in the transfer market by giving them real-time market intelligence and direct access to a global network of decision-makers.

It’s used by 800+ clubs, including Man City, Liverpool and Juventus, 550 trusted agencies and 8000 professional players. It has empowered clubs and agents to facilitate over 9,500+ transfers since its launch in 2017.

💻 How We Work

The TransferRoom team is truly global and we have the opportunity to connect weekly in 121s and team meetings, as well as in person at TransferRoom events.

🏟️ Locations

Our London office is at Bankside, with additional tech hubs in Poland and Ukraine.

Our office is naturally social, especially Tuesdays, Thursdays & Fridays, when we have regular team drinks, celebrations and five-a-side football.

🎯 What You'll Be Working On

As a Product Owner, you will join a small, fast moving team focused on a product area that serves one of our core customers. You will take ownership of this area end to end, shaping work from early problem framing through to delivery, iteration and measurable outcomes.

This is a hands on role. We are looking for someone structured, thoughtful and commercially aware, comfortable translating strategy into detailed, actionable plans while navigating ambiguity. You will work closely with engineers, designers, commercial teams and our Product Lead to ensure what we build is valuable, viable and feasible.

More than anything, we are looking for someone who brings clarity to complexity and helps the team focus on the right problems at the right time. You will be:

  • Translating product strategy into well defined user stories, acceptance criteria and clear scope

  • Working closely with the Product Lead to align on priorities, trade offs and delivery plans

  • Managing delivery from discovery through to release and iteration

  • Maintaining a structured and prioritised backlog aligned to customer needs and commercial context

  • Partnering closely with engineers to understand dependencies, validate feasibility and remove blockers

  • Framing delivery problems clearly and exploring multiple solution paths before committing

  • Ensuring shipped features are measurable, and learning from how work performs in the real world

  • Collaborating closely with Product, Design, Engineering and Commercial teams, contributing to both the why and the what

  • Communicating decisions, trade offs and rationale clearly, adapting your style to different audiences

  • Bringing structure, pragmatism and momentum to complex or ambiguous problem spaces

  • You’ll collaborate cross-functionally with sales, strategy and product teams to advocate for customer needs and feedback

We hire for potential and mindset, not just a checklist of skills — so you don’t need to have demonstrated everything - If you’re excited about changing the football transfer market, we’ll support you with onboarding and learning opportunities to get up to speed.

✅ You Should Apply If

  • You can translate high level strategy into clear, structured and delivery ready work

  • You write thoughtful user stories with strong acceptance criteria and clear rationale

  • You understand system dependencies and think ahead about technical implications

  • You balance pragmatism with quality, knowing when to iterate and when to refine

  • You are comfortable taking ownership of a defined product area and being accountable for outcomes

  • You use data and feedback to challenge assumptions and improve decisions

  • You collaborate naturally across functions and communicate with clarity and confidence

  • You adapt your communication style depending on whether you are speaking to engineers, executives or commercial teams

  • You proactively remove blockers and help teams stay organised and focused

  • You bring calm, structured thinking, especially when priorities shift or ambiguity increases

Not ticking every box? That’s okay! Research shows that underrepresented groups often self-select out of applying unless they meet every single requirement. If this role excites you, we’d love to hear from you — even if you’re still growing into some of these skills.
