About the role
Hargreaves Lansdown (HL) is looking for an experienced Product Manager to join the team. We are looking for an AI-enabled product builder who can identify opportunities, validate ideas and deliver measurable outcomes across client journeys, operations and technology. Working closely with engineering, design and operations teams, you'll own product outcomes and use data, experimentation, automation and AI to improve client experience, operational efficiency and business value.
How we work
We believe Product Managers should be builders, not coordinators.
We expect Product Managers to use modern AI-assisted tools to accelerate discovery, analysis, prototyping, experimentation and delivery.
We favour evidence over opinion, outcomes over output and learning over process.
We encourage Product Managers to get hands-on, building prototypes, testing ideas and working directly with engineers to validate opportunities.
What you'll be doing
- Define, drive and own clear product vision, roadmap and measurable outcomes for your product area.
- Lead journey digitisation and automation, replacing manual and paper-based processes with scalable digital capabilities.
- Drive measurable improvements in client experience, operational efficiency and business value using data, experimentation and insight.
- Identify, validate and prioritise opportunities using client feedback, operational data, market insight and commercial analysis.
- Build prototypes and experiments using digital and AI-assisted tools to validate assumptions before committing engineering investment.
- Apply data, AI, automation and intelligent workflow capabilities to improve client and colleague experiences.
- Work closely with engineering to understand platform constraints, technical debt and capability reuse opportunities.
- Partner with operations teams to reduce manual effort, avoidable contact and failure demand.
- Make clear prioritisation decisions based on value, opportunity cost, client impact and technical feasibility.
- Measure outcomes and use evidence to decide whether initiatives should be scaled, improved, simplified or stopped.
- Champion your products by communicating decisions, trade-offs, progress and value to stakeholders.
- Ensure products comply with relevant regulatory requirements within the financial services industry.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
