You’ll be the driving force behind seamless experiences that blend retail fintech magic with real-world impact – think optimising credit lifecycles, supercharging efficiency, and delivering wow moments for everyday customers.
CORE RESPONSIBILITIES
- Get ready to roll up your sleeves and make things happen in a fast-paced fintech environment.
- Spearhead end-to-end research, design, and rollout of fresh products and business capabilities – from strategy to live execution.
- Map out and fine-tune client journeys with a laser focus on efficiency and that flawless, client-first vibe.
- Harness lean principles and AI tools to build smart processes that boost operations and keep everything humming.
- Team up with product, engineering, ops, marketing, and finance crews for butter-smooth product launches.
- Dive into performance metrics and data to shape killer features, tweaks, and experience upgrades.

- 5 years in product management, business process engineering, or something closely aligned.
- Bachelor’s in Industrial Engineering, Finance, or similar – bonus points for an advanced degree.
- Track record building product roadmaps with MVP flair, zeroing in on client value.
- Deep know-how in product lifecycles, client journey mapping, and process optimisation.
- Experience wrangling projects across diverse stakeholders and teams.
- Solid data skills in Excel, PowerBI, Looker, Tableau, SQL – plus stats tools like R or SAS, and AI exposure are cherries on top.
- Retail credit lifecycle background? That’s a nice edge, but not a must.
- Sharp analytical problem-solving, stellar communication and stakeholder skills, plus a curious, proactive mindset that owns the chaos of startup speed.
- Ready to build the future of fintech one innovative journey at a time?
