Growth Product Manager

Role type: Full-time, permanent

Salary: £50-60K depending on experience

Location: Hybrid – min. 3 days/week at our London HQ, at the Food Exchange in Vauxhall, with requirement to travel to other locations when needed (our office in Croydon, warehouse in South West London and visiting other trading partners where necessary).

Working pattern: 5 days a week, Monday to Friday

Start date: ASAP

The Role

Oddbox is on a mission to fight food waste and make it easier for people to eat well with the planet in mind. Our next big step? Launching a new meal solution that puts rescued veg centre-stage. This role will help us bring the first version of that idea to life.

We’re looking for a passionate Growth Product Manager to lead the delivery and iteration of the MVP for our new meal solution proposition. This role will sit at the centre of the project bringing clarity, coordination, and momentum to cross-functional workstreams spanning product, procurement, operations, tech, marketing, customer and commercial.

You’ll make sure the MVP is delivered on time and to a high standard. After launch, you’ll help us learn quickly, improve with clear intent and scale the MVP rapidly.

This is a unique opportunity to build something new from the ground up, work across the business, and make a real impact — for people, planet, and plate.

This role reports directly to Emilie, the CEO and co-founder.

Primary Responsibilities

You’ll bring structure, energy and focus to a complex, fast-moving project — and help make sure what we build is desirable, scalable, and commercially sound.

Some of the key things you’ll own:

🍅Creating (and keeping on track) a detailed MVP project plan, mapping all workstreams, owners, deliverables, milestones and dependencies

🍅Coordinating cross-functional teams to ensure alignment, action and accountability across the project lifecycle

🍅Project governance and risk management – running regular status updates, flagging risks, and keeping teams focused on critical path

🍅Coordinating activities across the Desirability–Viability–Feasibility model. We use this model to guide early product development, ensuring what we build is:

🥦Desirable: Work with freelance research/insight lead to capture customer feedback and inform post-launch iterations

🥦 Feasible: Help assess operational and delivery capabilities – can we deliver this reliably at scale?

🥦 Viable: Support commercial and financial modelling to evaluate unit economics and pricing feasibility

Post-launch, you’ll lead the insight-to-iteration loop, making sure learnings from the MVP are fed back into decisions about what we improve, pivot or scale.

Keeping the proposition grounded and scalable, balancing speed with rigour and short-term MVP goals with long-term business potential - making sure this MVP is just the start of something much bigger.

What we’re looking for

You’re a sharp, organised and collaborative problem-solver - someone who thrives in ambiguity and brings others with them.

Essential Skills & Experience:

🍉2-3 years product management experience

🍉Experience running cross-functional projects or early-stage product launches (bonus if in D2C, food, or consumer startups)

🍉Strong project management skills — planning, aligning, delivering

🍉A bias for clarity, action, and iteration

🍉Familiarity with Desirability–Viability–Feasibility models (or something similar)

🍉Confidence working with numbers, pricing models, and commercial trade-offs

🍉Excellent communication — you keep things moving without losing people along the way

🍉AI literate

Nice to have:

🍐Experience in food, D2C, or subscription businesses

🍐Worked on MVPs or lean product development

🍐Exposure to customer insight, experimentation, or rapid testing

We won't waste your time telling you annual leave is a benefit—it's your right. But we'll give you five extra days of annual leave (33 days including bank holidays), four "not-sick" days, and two volunteering days each year. We provide a £300 self-service personal development budget, alongside generous peer-to-peer learning opportunities. You'll have access to well-being support through YuLife, coaching via BeHappi and receive discounts on Oddbox products.

Are you ready to make your mark on a mission-led business that’s changing how the world eats?
We’d love to hear from you.
