About us

Seccl is the Octopus-owned embedded investment platform that's on a mission to helping more people to invest – and invest well.

We’re B-Corp certified with an amazing product-market fit, impressive early traction and the potential to transform an outdated industry, for the better. We've been growing fast and will scale even faster over the next few years.

We’re also proud to be part of Octopus, the £multi billion group that's on a mission to breathe new life into broken industries, through companies like Octopus Energy, Octopus Investments and Octopus Money.

Check out the Seccl website for the latest on our products and our mission to shape the future of investments.

The role:

We’re looking for a Group product manager to lead our Accounts tribe, a critical part of the Seccl platform. Accounts sits at the heart of how investors and advisers interact with Seccl- from tax‑efficient wrappers to pensions, investment strategies and account‑level functionality.

• Investment wrappers such as JISA, ISA and GIA, ensuring smooth, compliant experiences across firms and end investors
• SIPP capability and the infrastructure needed to support a range of pension use cases
• Enabling advisers and investors to access the right assets aligned to risk profiles
• Account‑level functionality such as fees and inter‑account movements

You won’t lead a single squad day‑to‑day. Instead, you’ll lead multiple Product managers across several squads, setting direction, aligning priorities, and driving strategic initiatives across your domain. You’ll work closely with two other GPMs (Custody and Experience) to shape the end‑to‑end platform roadmap.

On a typical day you will:

• Set the vision and strategy for the Accounts tribe, shaping direction 6‑18 months ahead
• Build and maintain clear, coherent roadmaps that balance short‑term delivery with long‑term impact
• Develop strong relationships with advisers, developers and firms, deeply understanding their workflows, pain points and needs
• Lead, coach and support Product Managers, helping them grow, prioritise effectively, and deliver meaningful outcomes
• Work closely with engineering leadership to deliver scalable, reliable, compliant platform capabilities
• Drive alignment across squads, ensuring shared context, cross‑functional collaboration and consistency of approach
• Champion customer‑centric product decisions through continuous discovery, data‑driven insights and tight feedback loops
• Collaborate with commercial, operations, support and compliance teams to balance current and future customer needs with business opportunities.
• Promote operational excellence, improving processes that impact experience and efficiency
• Contribute to product culture, shaping how we scale our ways of working as the organisation grows. Act as one product leadership with the two other Group Product Managers

This role’s for you if:

• Have experience leading multiple squads or teams within a high‑growth, API‑first, fintech, or regulated environment
• Are a strategic thinker, balancing long‑term vision with execution.
• Have a strong commercial mindset, understanding how product decisions impact business growth.
• Can build deep relationships with customers, acting as their advocate within the business.
• Are an excellent people leader, coaching and mentoring product managers to excel.
• Have a track record of improving processes and driving operational efficiencies.
• Work closely with engineering leadership, ensuring a strong product‑engineering partnership.
• Thrive in fast‑paced, ambiguous environments, using data to drive decisions.

This role isn’t for you if:

• You have never managed people.
• You have never invested and don't use any investment platforms.
• You rely on top‑down direction. Here, you’ll have significant freedom and ownership to shape your progression and deliver outcomes.
• You’re not comfortable in a fast‑paced environment. Our agility and scalability are what set us apart, and we expect quick thinking and adaptability.
• You struggle to follow through on ideas. We value people who follow through and deliver on what they set out to achieve.
• You don't like change. You’ll thrive here if you embrace the ambiguity of rapid growth and see change as an opportunity rather than a challenge.

What’s in it for you:

We offer a generous mix of benefits for the things that really matter to our people, including:

💰A salary between £110,000 and £120,000 – dependant on experience + reviewed annually

🌴27 days holiday + bank holidays (some can be flexible) + day off on your birthday + three days (full time) per year for Dependant leave

Interview process:

Interviewing is a two‑way thing, and we want you to have the time and opportunity to get to know us, as much as we are getting to know you. Our interviews are conversational, so come with questions and be curious. In general, you can expect the interview process to look a bit like this, (following an initial chat with one of our Talent team):

• First stage – 45 mins competencies-based interview with a group product manager
• Second stage – one‑hour technical interview or assessment with the hiring manager
• Final stage – 45 mins bar‑raiser culture‑based interview

⏳ We’ll only close this role once we have enough applications for the next stage. Please submit your application as soon as possible to make sure you don't miss out and you should expect to hear back from us within one to two weeks of applying.

🌈 Our aim is to build a diverse and inclusive company of awesome people, with unique skills, passions and experiences. All applicants will be considered for employment without attention to age, ethnicity, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, family or parental status, national origin, or veteran, neurodiversity or disability status.
