Our approach combines market insights with responsible, sustainable investing to create long-term value for clients and communities.

Everyone at Aviva Investors plays a part in creating an exceptional client experience. We operate with an inclusive, supportive environment where contributions are valued, high performance is recognised, and development is encouraged. We are recruiting for a Product Strategy Senior Manager to join our Product team. This role requires strong markets knowledge, ability to assess trends, and provide competitor insights. Reporting into the Head of Product Strategy, you will identify market gaps, opportunities, and actionable product initiatives to meet client needs, whether through existing products or new opportunities.

As a Product Strategy Senior Manager, you will work across both public and private market initiatives to develop products that support the future growth of the business. You will drive innovation and shape the 1–3 year product strategy for Aviva Investors globally, collaborating with Investment and Distribution teams to analyse industry trends and opportunities across the broader asset management landscape. Your insights will inform product roadmaps across Aviva Investors regions and sales channels, while keeping sales and investment teams updated on competitor activity and market focus. You will contribute to product positioning reviews, support the development of sales plans, and provide guidance on regulatory considerations, vehicle selection, and key product characteristics to drive strategic growth. You will also support ongoing reviews of product roadmaps to ensure they remain relevant, competitive, and aligned to business priorities.

• Experience in a product strategy role preferably across public and private markets.
• Experience of product structures and structuring - e.g. UCITS funds and private markets structures and characteristics.
• Regulatory knowledge of global markets such as European, UK and APAC regulatory landscapes, whether from a similar role or other relevant experience.
• IMC, CAIA or similar qualifications welcomed but not required.

What you’ll get for this role:

• Competitive salary (depending on skills, experience, and qualifications).
• Discretionary bonus opportunity - depending on individual performance and Aviva Investors!
• Generous pension scheme - Aviva will contribute up to 14%, depending on what you put in.
• 29 days holiday plus bank holidays, and you can choose to buy or sell up to 5 days!
• Aviva-funded Private Medical Benefit to help you get expert support when you need it.
• Make your money go further with up to 40% discount on Aviva products, and other retailer discounts.
• Up to £1,200 of free Aviva shares per year through our Matching Share Plan and share in the success of Aviva with our Save As You Earn scheme.
• Brilliantly supportive policies including parental and carer’s leave.
• Flexible benefits to suit you, including sustainability options such as cycle to work.
• Make a difference, be part of our Aviva Communities and use your 3 annual volunteering days to help others.

We’re inclusive and welcome everyone – we want applications from all backgrounds and experiences. Excited but not sure you tick every box? Even if you don’t, we would still encourage you to apply. We also consider all forms of flexible working, including part time and job shares. Most of our people are smart working – spending at least 50% of their time in our offices every week, which balances flexibility with time together with colleagues.
