Company mission
Seccl is the Octopus-owned embedded investment platform that’s helping more people to invest – and invest well.
Role
Who you are
- If you’re excited about helping more people invest, driving change and innovation, and diving head-first into the unknown; if you see setbacks as fuel for growth and development; and if you believe that laser-focussed effort is the key to making things happen – then this is the role for you
- Have hands-on experience with onboarding, launching, or migrating fintechs, advisers, or advice tech firms
- Understand core operational processes and can explain them clearly to help firms achieve a smooth launch
- Know your way around an API (or are eager to learn) and can confidently field standard integration questions
- Have a solid grasp of the regulatory landscape for platform operators and can translate complex requirements into plain English
- Are curious about the fintech and adviser markets — and keen to understand how Seccl fits within them
- Can juggle multiple onboarding projects at once while keeping clients and colleagues in sync
- Take ownership of blockers, collaborating across teams to find smart, practical solutions
- Enjoy working with data — spotting patterns, drawing insights, and communicating them clearly
- Thrive on variety, tackling everything from product to technical and legal queries with curiosity and persistence
What the job involves
- As a member of our launch team, you'll be key player in ensuring the delivery of our customer roadmap – owning the onboarding and migration of establish fintechs, adviser-aggregators/consolidators, large advice techs, and enterprise propositions
- Leading engaging demos of our software and APIs, showing firms how our technology can power their business
- Running deep-dive workshops and capturing key details — from project goals and functionality gaps to timelines and migration plans
- Guiding firms through our custody agreement, AML, and KYC requirements to ensure full understanding and compliance
- Supporting firms as they integrate with our API, helping them build efficient, compliant client journeys
- Coordinating and delivering onboarding and migration projects on time and to a high standard
- Providing clear, concise updates to stakeholders on progress, risks, and commercial outcomes
- Ensuring a smooth handover to our Customer Success team once onboarding is complete
- Leading system demos and training sessions for firm teams to set them up for long-term success
- Developing a strong understanding of Seccl’s products, APIs, and services to bring clarity and confidence to every interaction
Application process
- Interviewing is a two-way thing, and we want you to have the time and opportunity to get to know us, as much as we are getting to know you. Our interviews are conversational, so come with questions and be curious. In general, you can expect the interview process to look a bit like this, (following an initial chat with one of our Talent team):
- First stage – 45 mins competencies-based interview with the hiring manager and another member of the team
- Second stage – one-hour technical interview or assessment
- Final stage - 45 mins bar-raiser culture-based interview
Salary benchmarks
Our take
Seccl is an embedded investment platform revolutionising how companies offer investment services. With its API-first technology infrastructure it helps financial professionals and businesses launch and manage investment platforms easily. By simplifying old, clunky processes, Seccl gives firms the tools they need to offer customers a seamless, digital investing experience - whether it's for financial advisers, neobanks, or fast-growing startups.
Since being acquired by Octopus in 2019, Seccl has seen impressive growth. Now supporting over 190,000 investors as well as managing more than £13.4B in funds through its platform. With this, Seccl is well on track to power even more businesses and as it continues to grow, its mission to disrupt the industry with smarter, scalable solutions is only growing in momentum.
