Senior Manager Portfolio Strategy
Job Title
We’re a UK-based digital bank dedicated to getting the basics right and offering straightforward savings and mortgages.
Role Overview
As a Senior Manager Portfolio Strategy, you will be responsible for developing and managing data-driven product, pricing and promotional strategies to optimise the performance of the Savings portfolio. You will lead the development of pricing and planning models to ensure decision-making is fully informed by all available organisational data, and that portfolio strategy reflects both customer behaviour and market dynamics. You will play a central role in forecasting, planning and strategic change activity across the savings product suite.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and own the Savings Pricing Strategy, including pricing models and governance alignment.
- Build and enhance data-driven pricing and forecasting models to support robust commercial and portfolio decision-making.
- Lead the Savings planning and forecasting process, developing assumptions based on market capacity, seasonality and portfolio data.
- Partner with finance and financial planning to translate assumptions into balance sheet and margin projections.
- Integrate savings funding and liquidity assumptions into the wider funding plan, supporting regulatory reporting.
- Support product, pricing and strategic change initiatives across the Savings portfolio, including new product development and service improvements.
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.
