Company mission
We’re on a mission. And it’s money without borders. Instant, convenient, transparent and — eventually — free.
Role
Who you are
- You are a seasoned, hands-on Product manager with 5+ years of experience building products as a Product Manager or a Founder
- You have launched a significant B2C product and bear the scars of the successes and failures along the way
- You are customer obsessed, meaning you go deep into understanding them, identifying where to alleviate pain points and deliver empathy
- You like nothing more than getting hands-on and roll up your sleeves to work on the execution, willing to wear any hat if that can help your team ship today instead of tomorrow
- You hunger for quantitative growth, numbers obsessed, with sufficient analytical skills to make sharp decisions quickly and independently
- You have significant technical understanding that can help unblock decisions from engineering leadership
- Experience in fintech or finance is not a requirement, as you are a fast learner and have proven so in every domain you have worked in
What the job involves
- We’re looking for a Senior Product Manager to join our growing Account squad in London
- The role is an unique opportunity to join one of the largest fintech companies in the world
- You'll be leading and growing our Product team to provide millions of people with frictionless and borderless money management
- Create and launch a new version of the ‘current account’ by enabling customers to get a return on their money while continuing to spend and send without restrictions
- You’ll be working closely with Designers, Researchers, Developers, Compliance and Analysts to enable the team to make informed decisions and inspire the highest standards of execution
- You’ll report to the Assets product lead, whose role is to help you find your own path to having a massive impact on the Wise mission
- Directly contribute to our mission to make money without borders the new normal – you will need to figure out and build solutions so that our customers can move money instantly, conveniently, transparently, and – eventually – for free
- Build world-class products: The role is a unique opportunity to build innovative, state-of-the-art solutions with a global impact
- Choose your path to impact – we believe people are most empowered when they can act autonomously. So rather than telling you what to do, you’ll work with your team to create a vision of your own. Of course, you can always gather feedback from smart, curious people across Wise but you’ll have the freedom to make your own calls
- Inspire teams from the entire company with your ideas, knowledge and self-starting attitude
Salary benchmarks
Our take
Wise started when the two founders realised they would be better off trading Estonian kroons for British pounds (and vice versa) between themselves rather than going through banks. That was back in 2011, and they've since grown Wise into one of Europe's most successful tech businesses, exchanging billions of currency every month.
Wise rapidly grew by solving a significant problem for customers, who lost too much money to banks when exchanging currency. They've attracted investment from some of the best investors in the world, from Andreesen Horowitz to Index Ventures and even Richard Branson.
The challenge for Wise will be maintaining their edge and brand power in a market that's becoming increasingly crowded with new entrants (like Revolut and Monzo) and incumbents (traditional banks) trying to catch up. To do so, the company is ramping up its digital and marketing strategies, as well as pushing for further development of its existing products.
