The role

We’re looking for a Senior Product Manager for our payment squad to join us. You'll lead initiatives that scale how our operations team functions, help automate complex payment processes, improve customer experiences in a highly regulated environment and transform the advice and investment space. In this role, you’ll help shape Seccl’s payment solutions, from banking integrations to seamless payment processing and scalable operational processes.

This is a high-impact, high-ownership role, ideal for someone who combines sharp product thinking, strong execution skills, and a passion for simplifying complexity.

This is an opportunity to...

• Shape the payment strategy and roadmap for a fast-growing fintech that wants to disrupt an outdated industry.
• Lead key initiatives such as our banking replatforming project and initiatives that directly impact how our operations team scales and becomes more innovative.
• Collaborate with product, engineering, and operations teams to identify the right tooling to automate tasks and solve complex customer problems.
• Contribute to a high-performing, autonomous squad where your ideas will directly influence our success.
• Influence the broader product team and company strategy, while also acting as a mentor to more junior product managers

On a typical day you will be…

• Working closely with the Group Product Manager and Operations Lead to shape the strategy and maintain a clear, prioritised roadmap that addresses payment customer pain points and drives business outcomes.
• Collaborating as a pod with engineers, operations, and other stakeholders to solve scalability challenges for our payment operations team.
• Translating product roadmap features into well-defined requirements, including epics, user stories, and acceptance criteria.
• Prioritising and managing the sprint backlog, balancing stakeholder needs while maximising value for customers.
• Partnering with the Group Product Manager, stakeholders, and customers across the organisation to shape the product vision and strategy for the payment area.
• Engaging directly with customers to gather requirements, validate solutions, and ensure the product delivers real value.
• Using both quantitative and qualitative data to inform evidence-based decisions.
• Supporting the growth of junior product managers through mentorship.

You’ll be successful in this role if you…

• Have significant product experience – ideally in investment platforms, fintech, or another regulated domain (such as banking technology or insurance). While experience with APIs or as a payment PM are bonus, a strong willingness to learn and adapt is just as important.
• Show a clear bias for action and proactivity – you take the initiative to spot opportunities, gather insights, and move things forward, even when the path isn’t fully defined.
• Bring clarity to ambiguity – structuring problems and shaping them into actionable work.
• Have a strong bias for action – you proactively seek insights, test ideas, and move things forward.
• Are customer-obsessed – always thinking about how to improve workflows and outcomes.
• Thrive in cross-functional teams – collaborating across disciplines and navigating trade-offs…
