Job Description
At Zelt, we’re not just building HR software - we’re reinventing how modern companies run HR, payroll, IT, and finance. We’re at a pivotal moment in our journey: growing rapidly, backed by top investors, and expanding our footprint in the United Kingdom and beyond.
We are currently hiring a Product Manager to work directly with our CPO & Co-Founder, helping drive the product and customer experience as we scale. This is a rare opportunity to have a front-row seat at a SaaS company while playing a meaningful role in how it grows. You’ll see the impact of your work every day and join at the perfect inflection point: the product is proven, traction is real and it is still early enough that your work will help shape how Zelt grows.
This role operates at the centre of a growing startup - you'll shape the roadmap, work hands-on with customers and help build the operational backbone of the company, all while learning directly from a founder who's in the trenches with you every day.
What you'll do:
- Work closely day-to-day with the Engineering Manager, QA and engineers to plan sprints, unblock delivery, and ship features on time and to a high bar
- Keep a close eye on customer feedback and market opportunities, working with account management and customer success to make sure real user needs are constantly feeding the roadmap
- Define and refine requirements, run design and scoping discussions, and make the trade-off calls that keep delivery moving
- Own quality end-to-end, partnering with QA and engineers on test plans and acceptance criteria, not just handing off a spec
- Dig into the details that matter, from configuration to compliance and become a genuine expert in how the product works under the hood
- Help build the systems and processes that let a growing company run smoothly, from documentation to internal tooling
- Work side-by-side with the founding team, with real input into decisions and real ownership over outcomes.
What we’re looking for:
- First-class degree (or international equivalent) from a top-tier university, with a demonstrated record of academic excellence
- Experience working in a growing startup or scaleup, ideally in a fast-paced environment
- Someone who's excited to wear multiple hats and grow their scope as the company grows
- A sharp, curious problem-solver who wants to understand the "why" behind every feature and every customer request
- Strong collaborator who can work fluently with engineering, Design, QA and commercial teams, comfortable in the technical detail without needing to write the code
- A sharp ear for customer feedback and a nose for spotting the opportunity buried in it
- Strong communication skills and the judgment to know when to escape versus when to run with it
- A self-starter who's energised by ambiguity and fast-changing priorities.
