- Analyze market trends, competition, and industry changes to guide product pathways.
- Produce and maintain product roadmaps spanning multiple quarters, aligned with corporate goals.

- Conduct user research, journey mapping, interviews, and validate problems extensively.
- Collaborate with user experience and design teams to craft intuitive, accessible, and engaging mobile app experiences.
- Transform complex business and stakeholder needs into prioritized product initiatives.
- Discover unmet customer requirements and growth potential through research and insights.
- Represent the product function to senior leadership and key stakeholders.
- Foster strong collaborations across technology, operations, compliance, commercial sectors, and external partnerships.
- Communicate product vision, priorities, challenges, and decisions clearly and persuasively.
- Unify diverse stakeholder groups under a common product strategy.
- Convert strategic objectives into action plans with measurable outcomes and key performance indicators.
- Work closely with engineering, design, data analytics, and business teams to plan and prioritize initiatives.
- Balance immediate delivery needs alongside long-term strategic goals.
- Drive coordination to ensure successful product execution and team alignment.
- Guide and support delivery teams, empowering them to manage everyday operational tasks.
- Ensure user stories, acceptance criteria, and requirements reflect strategic objectives.
- Oversee progress, manage dependencies, and facilitate removal of blockers.
- Maintain consistent focus on high-quality outcomes for customers.
- Ensure compliance with relevant regulations, privacy laws, security, and governance standards.
- Collaborate closely with technical and legal teams to support secure and compliant product creation.
- Advocate for best practices surrounding data integrity, quality, and user trust.
- Define and track key metrics related to product adoption, engagement, retention, and satisfaction.
- Use analytics, customer feedback, and market intelligence to guide product strategy.
- Encourage a culture of experimentation, continuous learning, and iterative product enhancement.
- Lead frequent evaluations of product performance and roadmap effectiveness.
Qualifications and Experience
- Minimum 10 years of product management experience, with at least 5 years in senior leadership or strategic product roles.
- Track record of successfully launching and scaling mobile applications.
- Proven ability to define product vision, strategy, and sustainable long-term roadmaps.
