About the role
This is a pivotal moment to join Crisis in a technical leadership role. We are approaching the go-live of our new Supporter CRM, built on Microsoft Dynamics 365, with launch scheduled for July 2026. As Supporter CRM Product Owner, you will play a central part in ensuring that go-live is a success – and then in establishing the continuous improvement model that will drive the platform forward. You will be bold in shaping the product vision, working closely with the CRM Journeys Lead and key stakeholders across the charity to bridge strategic goals with technology enablement.
Working within our Data, Digital and Technology team and reporting to the Business Systems Manager, you will own the product backlog, lead agile delivery sprints, and act as the primary technical expert and advocate for the Supporter CRM. We are collaborative by nature – you will bridge the gap between technical development and the ambitions of our supporter-facing teams, translating user needs into clear, deliverable requirements. Your work will be impactful: enabling an exceptional supporter experience is central to Crisis’ ability to grow income and engagement in pursuit of our mission to end homelessness for good.
About you
- Substantial experience of technical Product Ownership, ideally with hands-on knowledge of Microsoft Dynamics 365
- Proven ability to translate business requirements into technical specifications within an agile framework, leading delivery teams through sprints and releases
- Exceptional stakeholder management and communication skills – equally comfortable working with technical developers and non-technical colleagues at all levels
- Experience of driving high levels of user adoption for a new system or service, including establishing training, governance and change control processes
- Demonstrable track record of working as part of a cross-disciplinary team while being able to work on your own initiative
- A commitment to Crisis’ purpose and values, and to equality, diversity and inclusion
You may also have experience in one or more of the following: Fundraising or Engagement CRM in the charity sector; Dynamics 365 or other integrated Microsoft technologies; agile project management; change management and adoption; software development.
