We are seeking a Strategic Product Solutions Analyst – UK to join our dynamic team! The Strategic Product Solutions Analyst supports Conquest’s sales and client engagement efforts across the UK and EMEA by partnering closely with Sales, Product, and client-facing teams. This role is central to ensuring Conquest’s platform is clearly and accurately represented to prospects and clients within the UK financial advice market, while capturing real-world feedback that shapes ongoing product development.

The Strategic Product Solutions Analyst is well suited to an individual with strong subject-matter expertise in UK financial planning and financial services, relevant early-career industry experience, and the potential to grow into increasingly complex sales and strategic responsibilities over time. This position would suit a senior paraplanner/financial adviser with cash flow experience and deep industry knowledge.

The Strategic Product Solutions Analyst brings curiosity, structure, and analytical rigour to client and prospect interactions, product demonstrations, and cross-functional initiatives. They develop deep familiarity with both the UK financial advice sector — including the regulatory landscape, adviser workflows, and market dynamics — and the broader financial advice technology landscape, translating real-world insight into meaningful product and business intelligence for Conquest.

This is a remote/work from home opportunity for candidates located in the United Kingdom.

• Support sales and client-facing engagements through high-quality product demonstrations, discovery participation, and solution design assistance.
• Build deep product and industry knowledge to contribute to product innovation, client satisfaction, and Conquest’s long-term mission and growth strategy.
• Develop and maintain a strong working knowledge of Conquest’s platform, including planning methodologies, workflows, and integrations relevant to the UK advice market.
• Assist in translating complex financial planning and technical concepts into clear, audience-appropriate explanations for advisers, paraplanners, business stakeholders, and internal teams.
• Participate in discovery and needs assessment conversations to understand client and prospect objectives, planning philosophies, workflows, and constraints.
• Collaborate with Sales and Product teams to ensure feedback from the field is accurately reflected in proposals, follow-ups, and internal planning discussions.
• Serve as a primary facilitator for RFP and RFI responses, ensuring submissions are accurate, complete, timely, and of high quality.
• Co-ordinate inputs across Sales, Product, Development, Information Security, Legal, and other internal stakeholders.
• Play a key role in compiling, maintaining, and improving reusable response content, knowledge repositories, and internal documentation to support AI-enabled response generation tools, improving efficiency and quality over time.

Demonstrate a strong commitment to developing knowledge of the UK financial advice sector, including relevant FCA regulation, Consumer Duty requirements, and evolving market dynamics. Stay current on industry trends, competitive developments, regulatory themes (including FCA consultations and policy statements), and thought leadership by consistently reviewing industry publications and news sources.

As solutioning expertise and industry knowledge grow, represent Conquest at UK and EMEA conferences, industry events, and external meetings as appropriate. Strong UK market fluency improves credibility and impact in both internal and external interactions, helping position Conquest as a knowledgeable partner within the UK financial advice community.

Collaborate with Product, Design, and Development teams to support research and discovery efforts across the product development lifecycle. Assist with business testing, workflow validation, and internal reviews of new features and capabilities. Participate in previews or early feedback sessions with select external stakeholders when appropriate, helping validate usability and real-world applicability prior to broader release.

Product input grounded in real UK client usage helps ensure Conquest’s platform scales effectively, enabling clients to deliver better advice to more people without compromising quality or integrity.
