  • Own the vision, roadmap and prioritisation of the Openbank app experience.
  • Lead one cross-functional squad, aligning Engineering, Design, Data and business partners around clear customer and business outcomes.
  • Define and own product metrics across activation, engagement, conversion, retention, self-service and customer satisfaction.
  • Lead continuous discovery using product data, customer feedback, UX research and experimentation.
  • Identify high-impact customer problems and simplify complex journeys across the app.
  • Translate customer and business needs into clear hypotheses, MVPs, product requirements and success criteria.
  • Prioritise based on customer value, business impact, strategic alignment, regulation and technical feasibility.
  • Work closely with other product managers to create a consistent and connected app experience across journeys.
  • Monitor performance after launch and use evidence to improve, iterate or change direction.
