About the Role
Are you a Senior or Lead Product Manager with a deep background in consumer credit and a practical passion for AI-driven products?
We are partnering with a high-growth FinTech scale-up delivering next-generation credit intelligence, marketplace, and broker solutions. As part of a major product transformation, they are building a powerful AI layer across their entire consumer product ecosystem—moving beyond superficial hype to deliver genuine, value-adding AI features that empower consumers to unlock access to credit and improve their financial wellbeing.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Key Responsibilities
- Drive the AI Product Strategy: Identify where and how AI/LLMs create real user value, designing intelligent features (e.g., AI financial assistants, interactive credit report intelligence, alternative credit-matching pathways) rather than adding AI for "AI’s sake."
- End-to-End Product Leadership: Lead the product roadmap from discovery to delivery—owning backlogs, gathering user feedback, prioritizing features, and defining success metrics.
- Empower the Unserved Consumer: Redesign core consumer journeys to guide users who are "locked out" of traditional credit, presenting tailored alternative options through data ownership and intelligent recommendations.
- Modern Product Transformation: Foster a highly collaborative, modern Product & Engineering culture working directly with senior engineers and tech leadership.
- Execution & Delivery: Maintain a crisp backlog and agile cadence in a lean, fast-moving, high-impact environment.
