You’ll shape the roadmap, guide feature delivery, and keep a colourful cast of stakeholders aligned (marketing, legal, IT… yes, all of them).If you enjoy turning complexity into clarity — and you’re the type who says “I’ll handle it” before anyone else volunteers — you’ll fit right in.Key ResponsibilitiesOwn and sharpen the product roadmap for liability & cashback: from brand positioning to feature delivery.Translate ideas, insights and 10 different stakeholder opinions into concrete requirements and prioritised user stories.Energise collaboration between marketing, brand, legal, risk, and IT — without losing the plot or your patience.Work closely with feature engineers, analysts and architects to bring new features to life (smoothly, on time, and with fewer surprises).Analyze product performance, identify opportunities, and turn them into actionable improvements.Prepare clear, strategic materials: dashboards, pitches, go-to-market briefs, impact slides — the works.Safeguard regulatory compliance while keeping the customer experience front and centre.Represent the product in committees, touchpoints and ad-hoc “can we quickly align?” sessions.Keep everyone aligned, informed, and moving forward — even when priorities shift (because they will).Your PersonalitySolution-driven, constructive, and allergic to overcomplicating things.Natural stakeholder whisperer: diplomatic but direct, friendly but firm.Strong “I’ll handle it” mentality — not heroic, just reliable.Not afraid of technical detail, but also able to zoom out and tell a sharp product story.Energetic, communicative and able to get people on board fast.Curious, constantly improving, and comfortable saying “I don’t know yet — but I’ll find out.”Authentic, honest and dependable: say what you do, do what you say.Main Skills and QualificationsDegree in business, marketing, economics, engineering or equivalent.5+ years as a Product Manager, Product Owner or Feature Lead — ideally in financial services, payments, loyalty or regulated markets.Experience in branding & marketing, and turning propositions into customer-ready narratives.Strong track record in technical delivery: roadmaps, APIs, feature engineering, refinement, sprint follow-up.Excellent stakeholder management — especially when juggling legal, risk, IT, marketing and operations.Confident with data, KPIs and competitive analysis.Clear and effective communicator (NL or FR + English).Fluent in agile ways of working (Scrum/Kanban).Skilled at producing clean, impactful senior-level slide decks.Customer-centric mindset balanced with regulatory awareness.Bonus: hands-on experience as a feature engineer or in IT delivery teams.
