Job Description
About the role
As a Product Manager, you'll play a key role in shaping and improving our products and propositions, ensuring they deliver value for our clients and customers. You'll manage the full product lifecycle, from identifying opportunities and managing the development of new features through to launch, optimisation and ongoing enhancement.
Working collaboratively across the business, you'll help drive a commercially focused roadmap informed by customer feedback, market insights and data. You'll champion customer-centric thinking, influence stakeholders at all levels, and ensure products are delivered in line with regulatory requirements and business strategy.
About You
We're looking for a commercially minded Product Manager with experience managing products from concept through to launch and continuous improvement. You'll bring a strong understanding of financial services products, digital trends and emerging technologies, alongside excellent stakeholder management and communication skills.
You thrive in fast-paced environments, can balance competing priorities, and are confident influencing senior stakeholders. You'll be comfortable using data and insight to shape decisions, developing compelling business cases, and driving positive outcomes for customers and the business.
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.
