Senior Product Manager (Data)

This is a really exciting role working within our Product Team however with a strong data focus. We are looking for someone who has experience defining a logical data model and also has experience with data standardisation, working on how we scale data pipelines to aggregate multiple data sources in.

Our Purpose

To make a more open land market to empower the next generation of property developers to build the homes (& places) we need for an ever growing and diverse population

“Like all great tech companies, we started with a problem.

Andrew (an east-London, quasi-hipster software engineer) wanted to build a house. And I (Jonny, a Geordie, ex-town planner turned software developer) knew the pain of the property industry systems he’d need to use to build that house.

We both knew that fixing those systems – making it easier to access that data – would help a whole load of people.

And thus LandTech was born – an ecosystem helping to make the entire house building process more efficient.

We started with LandInsight, the hugely successful (and multi-award-winning) site-sourcing platform. Then we added LandEnhance to help get planning permission, and LandFund to help secure funding.

But, not content to just be the fastest-growing PropTech company in the UK, we’re now heading international. Because all those problems we’re fixing aren’t just UK problems – they’re worldwide.

We’re helping to build more houses. Better houses. Plus the roads, schools, hospitals, and gyms to go with them.

Help us make that happen” – CEO/Co-Founder, Jonny Britton
