About the role

At IAG Cargo, digital distribution is a critical pillar of our commercial strategy. As we transition to a fully integrated digital ecosystem, the Distribution Product Owner plays a vital role in turning commercial goals into platform functionality that drives results. You will lead the commercial input into platform development, resolving current limitations while enabling new revenue-generating capabilities.

The Distribution Product Owner role combines product ownership with a commercial lens — you’ll translate strategic direction into sprint-level delivery while ensuring that backlog items contribute to revenue growth, digital adoption, and cost efficiency. Acting as the commercial interface to IT delivery teams, you’ll shape features that improve customer experience, unlock automation, and enable our growing portfolio of digital-only markets.

This is a high-impact, commercially accountable role responsible for translating strategic goals into executable product plans that deliver measurable business value. You will be at the heart of digital transformation, coordinating across IT, Digital Sales, Marketing, and external platforms to ensure we meet our digital adoption, capability, and revenue targets.

To succeed in this role, you must blend commercial acumen with digital fluency — balancing strategic thinking with tactical execution. You’ll work cross-functionally to define, prioritise, and deliver enhancements that elevate the performance of our distribution ecosystem and accelerate the shift to digital self-service.

Your work will directly enable the shift to scalable, automated distribution channels — unlocking new revenue, reducing cost of sale, and elevating customer experience.
