Product Manager | 65-80k + generous equity | FT In London

Our client was founded in response to a bold question: What if every donation could be made once, yet continue creating impact indefinitely? They believe this would fundamentally change the world. Their mission is to build long-term financial resilience for the social impact sector by rethinking how charitable funding works. By enabling donations to compound over time, they aim to create a more sustainable and enduring support system for organisations tackling the world’s biggest challenges.

Donations made through their platform are allocated into diversified, long-term stores of value, allowing charitable organisations to benefit from ongoing growth rather than one-time funding. This approach is designed to provide greater financial stability and predictability, helping organisations plan further into the future with confidence. They partner with a range of globally recognised and high-impact organisations, supporting initiatives across humanitarian aid, human rights, and international development.

Our client is looking for a product growth leader who combines strong product intuition, analytical thinking, and compelling storytelling. This is a role for someone who operates with a founder mindset — taking ownership, moving quickly, and making thoughtful trade-offs in a fast-paced environment.

You will own the end-to-end product growth engine: identifying opportunities, testing channels and messaging, shaping narratives, and building scalable growth loops. Working closely with senior leadership, you’ll play a key role in defining what drives sustainable growth and continuously iterating based on real-world performance.

This role requires someone who understands that meaningful growth comes from building products and experiences that people genuinely value and want to share. You’ll focus on creating systems that turn users into advocates and drive long-term, compounding engagement. The company is at an early stage of product-market fit, with ambitions to define a new category within its space. You will help build the foundations of a growth engine that supports long‑term, sustainable impact.

OUTCOMES

• Zero-to-One Growth Engine: Build and scale the company’s inbound growth system from the ground up, spanning product‑led growth, brand, content, partnerships, community, and referral mechanisms.

• Growth Loop Development: Design and implement scalable growth loops that convert users into advocates and create repeatable acquisition and retention mechanisms.
