Senior Product Manager
At Beam, you get to do work that matters for the world. We’re solving the world's toughest social problems with an incredible team, tech and AI. And we’re growing fast 🚀
It’s not easy. Nothing worth doing ever is.
Join a company at the forefront of social impact, driving first-of-its-kind positive change. You’ll be part of a high-performance culture where you'll make a huge impact, rapidly progress your career, and truly enjoy your work.
From top-tier coaching and personal development budgets to competitive salaries, we take care of everyone who works at Beam.
We’ve already seen incredible growth from our Magic Notes product, helping case workers save over 8 hours of admin per week. From social workers and NHS clinicians to mental health practitioners and safeguarding specialists, over 50,000 frontline workers across the UK are now using Magic Notes regularly to deliver faster, more human-centred support. We’re also launching globally, helping practitioners across the USA, EU, and Australia make a difference.
We’re looking for a Senior Product Manager to help bring Beam’s AI to millions of frontline workers across the UK, US, Europe and Australia.
You’ll report to Seb, our co-founder, and work closely with engineers and designers to build AI products that solve real operational problems in sectors like employment, housing and social care.
This is a hands-on product role for someone who loves building.
You’ll spend time:
shipping product quickly
working closely with engineers on AI capabilities
talking directly to users in the field
iterating rapidly based on real usage
and raising the bar for product quality and craft
We believe speed is a competitive advantage - especially in the AI era. The best way to discover great products is by shipping, learning and iterating quickly.
If you’re excited by the idea of building AI products that solve messy, real-world problems - not just demos or internal automations - you’ll thrive.
You will:
Ship quickly and iterate constantly - You’re comfortable operating in fast cycles of discovery and delivery. Rather than spending weeks scoping and writing lengthy specs, you prefer building, testing and learning with real users.
Obsess over product craft - You care deeply about the details that make products exceptional - speed, reliability, UX clarity, and how tools actually fit into real workflows.
Work directly with users - You’ll spend time travelling to offices to watch practitioners use the product - understanding how their work actually happens so we can build AI tools that genuinely help.
Use AI to solve real problems - You’ll work closely with engineers to turn the latest model capabilities into practical, high-impact features that reduce admin and unlock better services.
Set ambitious goals - You define clear outcomes and hold yourself - and your team - accountable for delivering them.
Help shape what Beam builds next - You’ll influence product strategy based on what you learn from users, partners and the market.
We’re looking for someone who
Moves fast -You believe product teams should move quickly, especially in the AI era, where capabilities evolve every week.
Is obsessed with execution - You take pride in shipping high-quality products and sweating the details that make them truly useful.
Thrives in ambiguity - You’re comfortable tackling messy problems where the path isn’t obvious.
Cares about the mission - You want your work to matter. Building AI applications that improve essential public services excites you.
Ideally, you’ve:
Built and shipped successful products - You’ve led product discovery and delivery alongside engineers and designers, taking products from idea to real user impact, but we’re open to hearing from people from other backgrounds. Moving fast, being ambitious, and finding creative ways to turn ideas into real-world impact are the most important qualities.
Worked with and understand technical systems - You’re comfortable working closely with engineers on complex systems - ideally with experience in AI, automation, or developer-facing tools. A technical background (engineering, ML, data science) is a bonus.
If that sounds like the kind of environment where you do your best work, we’d love to hear from you.
