The Product Policy function sits at the critical intersection of government policy and digital product delivery. It enables tech teams to succeed in a complex public sector environment by:

  • Guiding product teams through regulatory and policy considerations / constraints; and

  • Supporting public agencies to understand how technology can improve public service delivery

As a Senior Manager or Manager (Individual Contributor), you will play a key role in shaping policy approaches that enable good technology outcomes.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Policy-Product Integration

Translate policy constraints / intent into actionable guidance for product teams

Help agencies understand how product design choices intersect with public policy goals

Advise on trade-offs between user experience, compliance, and government outcomes

2. Strategic Problem Solving

Identify systemic barriers to effective digital delivery (e.g. outdated policies, fragmented approvals)

Co-develop solutions with internal and external stakeholders that balance compliance with innovation

Use systems thinking and backcasting to assess long-term implications of policy-product decisions

3. Stakeholder Engagement

Work closely with product managers, designers, engineers, legal, and policy teams

Collaborate with public agencies to align on project objectives and delivery conditions

Communicate clearly across technical and non-technical audiences

4. Writing & Communication

Craft memos, policy notes, and communications that frame product issues in clear, policy-aligned terms

Present recommendations to internal leads and external partners with clarity and persuasion

  • Strong Communicator: Excellent written and verbal communication. Able to synthesise complexity and convey compelling recommendations.

Preferred Qualifications:
