The Opportunity

This Australian FinTech has built a strong market position, an extensive customer base and a portfolio of software products serving complex business needs.

With serious investment and executive backing committed, the focus now is on what comes next: where the business invests, how its products evolve, and how technology can deliver more value to customers.

It's a role where innovation meets commercial reality, and every decision lands on customers, revenue and long-term growth.

The Role

  • Reporting directly to the CEO, the GM of Product will own the next phase of product direction and growth, across both major new initiatives and the core product.
  • You'll lead a team with deep industry knowledge, bringing fresh thinking, stronger product discipline and a clear sense of where to focus.
  • The challenge is knowing what to preserve, what to improve and where to invest for the greatest commercial return.

What you'll be doing

  • Turn a clear direction into a prioritised, credible roadmap, working closely with engineering leadership to weigh platform evolution, new capabilities and customer needs
  • Decide where to invest, simplify or retire, tied to clear product economics and measurable outcomes
  • Own pricing, monetisation and go-to-market inputs, making sure customers see clear value in what they pay for
  • Partner with the executive team to test growth opportunities and turn commercial priorities into practical product plans
  • Build a high-performing product and design organisation, developing existing talent and strengthening product management capability
  • Apply AI, automation and new technology where it creates real customer value and competitive advantage

What you'll bring

  • Extensive product leadership in FinTech, financial services technology or enterprise software, ideally across wealth, banking, payments, lending, insurance or other regulated environments
  • End-to-end product ownership, from customer and market insight through to pricing, launch and in-market performance
  • Proven experience evolving complex, business-critical platforms without losing sight of customers or commercial priorities
  • Strong technical judgment: the credibility to push back on engineering, assess feasibility and tell months of work from years
  • Experience working alongside a separately managed engineering organisation, influencing priorities without owning the reporting line
  • A track record of building high-performing product and design teams and developing senior talent
  • Executive presence, with the confidence to challenge a CEO, communicate trade-offs and make difficult decisions through ambiguity

Confidentiality

  • Shortlisted candidates will be asked to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) before receiving detailed information about the business and its plans.
