Qualifications
You may be a good fit if:
You’ve built consumer and B2B products at a massive scale. You have experience growing an early stage company, but you’re also able to navigate the complexity of a product at scale.
You’re hands-on and a strong individual contributor. You thrive as a player-coach. You roll-up the sleeves regularly and are able to operate at many levels of detail, flipping between executing as an individual contributor and leading a wider team.
You have 10+ years of experience in product roles, and have led high-performing teams of >5 PMs in the past. You excel at building strong, diverse teams, and you raise the bar on every team you interact with.
You’re always learning and doing whatever it takes to make your product succeed, whether it’s interviewing customers, designing UX, analysing data, or writing code.
You have experience leading teams in a product-led growth environment. You can set aggressive yet achievable targets, iterating quickly with experiments, and collaborating effectively across marketing/sales/ops to drive consistently large-scale and attributable growth.
You’re analytical and technical - you can write your own queries and you can keep up with engineers on technical discussions.
You have keen product sense, particularly in the banking/payments/fintech space. You’re passionate about products and are able to articulate very clearly what it is about a product that makes it successful (or unsuccessful).
You’re highly entrepreneurial and creative with fresh ideas - you don’t accept the status quo.
You have exceptional clarity of thought and are able to convey this simply. You bring structure to complex and fuzzy problems.

What it’s really like to work here
At Wise, we do things a bit differently. There’s no corporate nonsense, and no old-fashioned hierarchy. Instead, we work in dozens of self-sufficient, autonomous teams. Think of them like start-ups within a start-up that learn from each other.
Each team picks the problems they want to solve. So there’s no micro-management. No hiding behind fancy job titles. And no one telling you what to do. You are your own boss. But you’ll get tons of guidance and plenty of support from talented, super-smart colleagues from all over Wise.
We’re going to be upfront — the way we work doesn’t suit everyone. But if freedom, autonomy, and life-affirming, head-scratching professional challenges rock your world, we could be a match made in heaven.
