Job description

? Product Manager – Pensions | Fintech | London / Hybrid - 3-6 Month Contract Outside IR35 £550/day

I’m currently working on an exciting opportunity for a Product Manager with pensions experience to join a fast-growing fintech and take ownership of a newly launched pension proposition to join on an initial 3-6 month contract Outside IR35.

This is not a backlog-management role.

You’ll have genuine ownership of the product strategy, roadmap and customer proposition, working closely with Engineering, Design, Data, Operations, Risk, Compliance and senior leadership to build and scale a product that will have a meaningful impact on customers.

Why this role is worth a look:

• Own a pension product end-to-end — strategy, discovery, roadmap, delivery and optimisation
• Join a high-growth fintech where Product has a genuine voice at the table
• Work directly with senior leadership and have significant influence over product direction
• Build and improve a product used by a growing customer base
• Work across Product, Engineering, Design, Operations, Risk & Compliance
• Have the autonomy to make decisions rather than waiting for layers of approval
• Be part of a business that is investing heavily in AI and modern product development
• Opportunity to shape a product proposition that is still evolving — rather than inheriting a mature product and simply maintaining it

Experience:

Product Management

• Strong commercial Product Management experience
• Proven ownership of products from discovery → build → launch → optimisation
• Experience defining product strategy, roadmaps, KPIs and success metrics
• Strong data-driven decision making and customer-centric thinking

Pensions / Financial Services

• Hands-on experience working with pensions
• Strong understanding of the UK pensions market
• Experience with SIPPs, pension transfers or retirement products
• Experience working within a regulated financial services environment
• Exposure to third-party providers, platforms or financial services partners

Personality / approach

• Commercial, pragmatic and highly autonomous
• Comfortable operating in a fast-moving scale-up environment
• Able to influence senior stakeholders and bring teams together
• Someone who enjoys solving complex problems rather than simply managing a backlog
• Curious about AI and how it can improve the product lifecycle
