About Us

Wellington Management offers comprehensive investment management capabilities that span nearly all segments of the global capital markets. Our investment solutions, tailored to the unique return and risk objectives of institutional clients in more than 60 countries, draw on a robust body of proprietary research and a collaborative culture that encourages independent thought and healthy debate. As a private partnership, we believe our ownership structure fosters a long-term view that aligns our perspectives with those of our clients.

About the Role

The Product Owner, Wealth, defines Wealth business outcomes and translates Client Platform strategy and the target operating model into Wealth priorities and desired outcomes. The Product Owner leads continuous discovery and recommends investment and delivery priorities based on stakeholder needs, business value, risk, and strategic objectives. Technology partners are accountable for how solutions are designed, built, supported, and sustained. The Wealth Product Owner is accountable for Wealth business priorities, requirements, outcomes, and strategy as well as driving adoption of capabilities built for the Wealth channel globally. Horizontal Product Owners remain accountable for product roadmaps, backlogs, delivery execution, and technical implementation.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Product Vision, Strategy & Prioritization

  Define and evolve a Wealth experience vision and strategic priorities aligned with Client Platform strategy and the target operating model.

  Establish objectives, success measures, and decision principles that clarify priorities and trade-offs.

  Translate Wealth priorities into business recommendations that inform roadmap, sequencing, and investment decisions across Client Platform products.

  Assess cross-product, platform, data, and operating-model implications and coordinate decisions affecting shared capabilities and journeys.

  Recommend priorities, trade-offs, and investment opportunities based on Wealth outcomes, stakeholder needs, risk, and expected value.

  Align business stakeholders and technology partners on future-state capabilities and workflows.

• Stakeholder Management & Adoption

  Serve as the primary representative for Wealth stakeholders and priorities across Client Platform products.

  Build alignment among Wealth stakeholders, Product Owners, and platform leadership.

  Drive stakeholder readiness, adoption, and realization of business value.

  Coordinate cross-functional activities required to support successful implementation and adoption.

• Wealth Requirements, Product Partnership & Delivery

  Lead Wealth discovery and define business priorities, requirements, acceptance criteria, and expected outcomes.

  Establish and communicate Wealth priorities across products, making recommendations when stakeholder needs, investment opportunities, or delivery objectives compete.

  Partner with horizontal Product Owners to translate Wealth priorities into product investments, delivery plans, and measurable business outcomes.

  Own Wealth business requirements, stakeholder impacts, and intended outcomes throughout discovery and delivery.

  Evaluate outcomes, adoption, and experience performance to recommend future improvements and investment priorities.

  Define success measures and evaluate whether implemented changes achieve intended business outcomes.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

Wealth priorities consistently influence product investment and prioritization decisions. Wealth experiences become more coordinated across acquisition, enablement, platform access, servicing, and growth. Channel-specific gaps, duplication, and friction points are identified and resolved before they negatively impact advisor, intermediary, end-investor, or employee experiences. Wealth business outcomes improve through coordinated execution across multiple Client Platform products. Wealth priorities, requirements, and experience strategy provide a consistent basis for cross-product decision-making.

Working knowledge of technology, data, automation, and AI, with judgment to apply them appropriately in a regulated environment. Demonstrated experience relevant to: Wealth segment strategy and priorities; Cross-product Wealth journey design; Channel-specific requirements and trade-off decisions; Wealth adoption and end-to-end segment outcomes.

Leadership Competencies Strong product judgment and outcome orientation, with the ability to operate effectively in ambiguity and make evidence-based recommendations.
