Job description

Join a enterprise Financial Services company as a FinTech Product Manager in Birmingham.

Financial services firms are under pressure to modernise faster than regulation allows, and that gap is where good product managers earn their keep. This business has built its reputation on stability over decades, and now it needs someone who can bring product discipline to systems that can't afford to break. It's a rare mix: enterprise scale, real budget, and a mandate to move.

Here’s what you’ll be doing:

• Own the roadmap for a core FinTech product used across multiple business lines
• Translate regulatory and compliance requirements into practical product specifications
• Run discovery with engineering, risk, and operations teams to prioritise the backlog
• Present progress and trade-offs to senior stakeholders on a regular cadence
• Define success metrics and track them post-launch, not just at release
• Coordinate releases across dependent teams so nothing ships in isolation

Here are the skills you’ll need:

• Several years managing products within Financial Services or a similarly regulated sector
• Working knowledge of payments, lending, or core banking systems
• Comfortable reading technical documentation and challenging engineering estimates
• Strong written communication. You’ll be writing specs that other teams build from
• Experience balancing compliance requirements against delivery speed
• A calm head when priorities shift late in a sprint

Key perks and benefits:

• £59,000 to £85,500, depending on experience
• Hybrid working, based from the Birmingham office
• Private medical and dental insurance
• Enhanced pension scheme and performance-based bonuses
• Structured career development within an established organisation
