Nikwax or Grangers.

Make sure there's no detergent in the washer draw before adding the specialist stuff.

If the jacket doesn't need a wash you can just get a DWR spray.

Here's a guide:

I use either the granger or nikwax washing stuff for waterproofs and then you tumble dry it to activate the waterproofer, you can get the triple kit from go outdoors for same price as just the washing stuff bizarrely.

What do people use to wash them please. Worried about ruining the waterproofing. Got some fish slime on the arms and used a soft wash liquid on the area and now water doesnt bead off as it did before
