Emma's Product Manager Career Story

Dance was a huge part of my life and I once danced stage at The London Palladium!

I am a Broadband Product Manager working with Business customers within the B2B division in BT. My job is to help ensure the smooth running of the broadband product bought by business customers, mainly within the Small to Medium Enterprise space.

As a working mum of 3 young children, I am always amazed that I have managed to maintain a meaningful and successful career thanks to the flexibility and opportunities that have been presented to me at BT. Great managers who care about my career developments whilst balancing my important home life have meant that I haven’t needed to sacrifice one for the other, you can have the career you hoped for and raise a family.

Enterprise winner for my role in the cross portfolio engagement required to deliver a new bundled customer proposition.

I am new to the team and have felt extremely supported in my mission to develop product understanding. In a very busy working environment the whole team from Manager to Product Specialists have found the time to coach and support me during these all important first few months. I feel there is an understanding that investing in my development in the short term will have a benefit to the team long term – let’s hope I prove them right!

The fundamental role that BT takes in the infrastructure and capabilities which will be vital in my children’s future is something I’m in owe of. The world is changing and technology is at the centre of that. I’m excited that BT is a driving force behind what will shape the countries technological landscape.
