At Tide, we are building a business management platform designed to save small businesses time and money. We provide our members with business accounts and related banking services, but also a comprehensive set of connected administrative solutions from invoicing to accounting.

Launched in 2017, Tide is now used by over 1 million small businesses across the world and is available to UK, Indian and German SMEs. Headquartered in central London, with offices in Sofia, Hyderabad, Delhi, Berlin and Belgrade, Tide employs over 2,000 employees.

Tide is rapidly growing, expanding into new products and markets and always looking for passionate and driven people. Join us in our mission to empower small businesses and help them save time and money.

ABOUT THE TEAM:

Tide Payroll is on a mission to end the fear and effort of running payroll for micro and small businesses. Instead of having to take time to figure out the complicated intricacies of how to calculate pay, taxes, insurance, and so forth, we’re building a top-notch payroll product that automates and simplifies these things so that SMEs can focus on what really matters for their businesses (e.g. finding customers, delivering great products & services, doing what they love).

ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re looking for an exceptional Product Manager to join our product team that is building a world class payroll experience that will truly benefit micro, small & medium businesses around the world.

As Lead Product Manager you will:

• Organise work and ship products with high velocity that deliver value to our Members
• Define goals and measure performance to evaluate and understand product value
• Build alignment on priorities, plans and progress in your team, across other product teams, with stakeholders and the Leadership team
• Inspire and influence others and yourself to think differently, solve problems, seize opportunities and be passionate about working towards the mission

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

The ideal candidate will have:

• Has at least 8+ years of experience in product management.
• Proven product leader with payroll / fintech / accounting & tax / financial services domain expertise and a track record of building and scaling products
• At least some domain knowledge of payroll or related bookkeeping / accounting / tax product solutions. We value aptitude over experience, but we’re looking for some existing real world PM experience.
• Experience indirectly leading and seamlessly collaborating in cross-functional teams to drive successful product launches, continuous improvements, and growth.
• Highly organised and consistent in quality execution
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, especially in relation to decision-making, plans, progress, achievements and challenges.

WHAT YOU’LL GET IN RETURN

• Flexible working options
• Share options
• Group Life Insurance
• Vitality Health Insurance, with a proactive focus on mental and physical wellbeing
• 25 days holiday with the ability to buy extra days
• 3 days for L&D or volunteering time off per year
• We invest in your development with a £1,000 professional L&D budget per year
• Spacious brand-new office near Old Street with an all-day snacks bar
• Enhanced family-friendly leave
