Group Product Manager - 12 month FTC London

Flagstone is many things. An online savings platform, reinventing how individuals, businesses, and charities manage, protect, and grow their cash. A diverse group of people, bound by a collaborative spirit, and shared purpose. And lastly, a thriving, profitable business – where smart people do their best work. Each definition shares a common thread: our unique culture. It’s our pride and joy. And our competitive advantage.

A feel for our culture. To revolutionise the savings market, we need to be at our best. But high performance takes more than talent – it takes a culture of kindness, respect, and growth. That’s why we’re building a diverse, inclusive community, where your voice is heard and valued. Where, with close support and room to develop, you can surpass even your own expectations. And be rewarded for it.

We may not change the world, but we can change the world of financial technology. And all it takes is a winning mix of drive, talent, and empathy. Our culture celebrates all three.

But enough about us. Let’s talk about you. Does this sound like you? As a seasoned Product Leader, you will be one of the driving forces within an ambitious and energetic Product team.

What you’ll bring:

• An expertise in payments and reconciliations within a banking/financial services environment.
• Experience working in a cross functional team with a variety of internal and external stakeholders, up to senior management/C-suite level.
• Deep understanding of the Agile product development lifecycle, including product strategy development, user story writing, requirements definition, backlog prioritisation, QA, release and iteration.
