For too long in the UK, the topic of personal finance has either been treated as taboo, or a conversation which is reserved for the ultra-wealthy. We're looking for a Head of Personal Finance who can change that. Someone who can take the building blocks of financial freedom; like pensions, mortgages, tax and investing, and make them feel like tools which can be managed, to build a future worth getting excited about.
Someone who can strip out the jargon, provide a fresh take, and entice people to act.
This is the role that gives Octopus Money a voice. Internally, you'll own the content that helps customers understand their options and take the next step. Externally, you'll be the person journalists call when the Budget lands or rates move. Both halves matter equally, and both are measured.
How you would interact with the business
You’ll sit in the marketing and comms team, and benefit from all of their support and expertise. The beauty of this role is that you will also work hand-in-hand with the customer facing teams. That means working with regulated advisers to turn their expertise into things customers can use, and working with marketing to get it in front of the right people at the right moment.
You’ll also be close to the leadership team. When we need a view on a policy change, a product rule, or what customers are worried about this month, you’re the person we ask.
Your role
This role is for someone who wants both the platform and the accountability: a public profile, and a number to move. And while no two days are the same, your week might look something like:
- Monday: Writing an email and blog post explaining the major themes which have impacted portfolio performance over the past month
- Tuesa Wait, this assistant gave wrong content. We need to correct.{
