London, UK (hybrid working)
We\’re hiring a Product Manager to supercharge our Partnerships team at iwoca.
You\’ll shape our lending API, boost partner conversion, and streamline key workflows – all while building finance that works for small businesses.
The company
Imagine a world where every small business has the power to thrive. That\’s the world we\’re building at iwoca. Small businesses aren\’t just statistics – they\’re the heartbeat of our communities, the character of our high streets, and the engine of our economy. Since 2012, we\’ve revolutionised how these businesses access finance, turning what was once a lengthy, frustrating process into something remarkable: funding that\’s fast, flexible, and actually works for modern businesses.
Our impact speaks for itself: we\’ve provided billions in funding to over 150,000 businesses across Europe, making us one of the continent\’s leading fintech innovators. But we\’re just getting started. Our mission? To empower one million businesses with the financial tools they deserve.

The team
Our partnerships channel has grown rapidly to become a leading source of new customers for iwoca. We\’ve partnered with a number of major small business platforms, like the digital SME bank Tide and eCommerce giant eBay, and they use our cutting edge API to embed iwoca loans into their customer journey.
The partnerships team is a mix of commercial, technical, and analytical experts, all united to build new partnerships and maximise value from existing ones. Our partnerships Product Manager will work closely with our Head of Partnerships to grow our revenues from partnerships and help take iwoca\’s growth to the next level.
The role
As the Product Manager, you\’ll shape the roadmap, steer priorities with stakeholders, and lead a team through complex, high-impact problems. Working side by side with engineers and designers, you\’ll turn insights into action, ship meaningful features fast, and learn from what works (and what doesn\’t). It\’s a role for someone who thrives on ownership, sharp thinking, and building products that deliver real impact.
The projects
You\’ll identify and lead a range of strategic technology projects, driving improvements across our systems, platforms, and infrastructure to support innovation, efficiency, and growth, such as:

• Lead the evolution of our lending API to support scale, flexibility, and deeper integrations.
  You\’ll work closely with engineers and partner teams to design a platform that\’s secure, scalable, and easy to integrate. Example projects include rebuilding our lending API to support multiple products through a unified interface, and enabling deeper third-party CRM integrations for our largest partners.
• Uncover and resolve friction across the partner-referred customer journey.
  You\’ll use funnel analysis, user insights, and experiments to identify blockers and ship improvements that boost application completion and approval rates. For example, you might simplify document upload flows, optimise credit checks, or tailor journeys for different partners.
• Continuously improve partner-facing tools, including the Introducer Portal.
  You\’ll enhance how partners submit and track leads outside the lending API, with a focus on usability, transparency, and efficiency. For example, launching a reporting dashboard to show live conversion and commission metrics, and redesigning the lead submission journey to reduce confusion and improve quality.
• Streamline internal processes that support the partner channel.
  You\’ll work with the partner operations teams to reduce manual effort and improve service levels for partner-referred customers. This could involve automating CRM workflows, building status-tracking tools, or launching internal dashboards to monitor SLA adherence.
