Job description

This job is brought to you by Jobs/Redefined, the UK's leading over-50s age inclusive jobs board.

About Verto: At Verto, we're actively democratizing global finance, empowering businesses in Emerging Markets with seamless payment and liquidity solutions that have already led to billions in annual processing. Recognised as 'Fintech Start-Up of the Year' and a Milken-Motsepe Prize winner, we offer you the unique opportunity to join a rapidly growing, award-winning innovator where your work directly drives financial inclusion and global economic growth. Be part of a dynamic, world-class team that values impact, fosters continuous development, and champions an inclusive culture where your contributions truly matter.

We are looking for a Product Manager with experience managing B2B products, ideally within fintech, to help us define our product strategy and drive the execution of our roadmap. The focus will be on our core Global Payments and Foreign Exchange (FX) products, owning the vision for how businesses seamlessly convert currencies and execute cross-border transactions. You will be responsible for translating the complexities of international payment rails, liquidity, and FX pricing into a simple, efficient, and powerful platform.

What You'll Be Doing:

• Own the end-to-end product lifecycle: from discovery and strategy to defining requirements, launch, and iteration.
• Collaborate with engineering, design, compliance, treasury, operations, and go-to-market teams to define product requirements and deliver new features.
• Conduct market analysis and customer research to identify user pain points and uncover new opportunities within the global payments and FX space, including new currency corridors, payment methods, and hedging products.
• Create and maintain the product roadmap and backlog, writing clear user stories, epics, and product specifications.
• Define and analyse key product metrics (KPIs) such as transaction success rates, settlement times, FX spreads, and slippage to measure success and inform the product strategy.
• Work closely with the engineering team to ensure features are delivered on time and to specification, making trade-offs where necessary.

What You Need:

• Proven experience as a Product Manager with a track record of shipping successful B2B products (preferably in fintech, payments, or FX).
• Deep understanding of the international payments and FX ecosystem. This includes cross-border payment rails (SWIFT, SEPA, local ACH), FX pricing models, liquidity management, hedging strategies, and currency risk.
• Proficiency with product management tools (e.g., Jira, Confluence) and data analysis.
• Experience with product discovery techniques, including customer interviews, data analysis, and market research.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to articulate a clear product vision and strategy.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment and making data-driven decisions.
• Experience working in a regulated or compliance-heavy industry is a strong plus.

Life at Verto (Benefits):

• Competitive salary and equity package.
• Opportunity to play a key role in building the financial backbone for global businesses.
• Comprehensive health and wellness benefits.
• Generous paid time off and flexible working arrangements.
• Dynamic and inclusive company culture.
