Enablement manager

Hybrid role to be based in our Bath, London or Edinburgh office.

About Us

Seccl is the Octopus-owned embedded investment platform that’s on a mission to help more people to invest – and invest well. We’re B-Corp certified with an amazing product-market fit, impressive early traction and the potential to transform an outdated industry, for the better. We’ve been growing fast and will scale even faster over the next few years. We’re also proud to be part of Octopus, the £multi billion group that’s on a mission to breathe new life into broken industries, through companies like Octopus Energy, Octopus Investments and Octopus Money.

The role

Our enablement team helps keep Seccl running smoothly, unlocks efficiency and drives the strategic projects that fuel our future. As our enablement manager, you’ll sit at the heart of how we run and improve our business – helping keep the wheels turning and building a better engine along the way. This is a varied, fast-paced and high-impact role, with loads of opportunity to grow. From planning and governance to reporting and process improvement, you’ll make sure the right things happen at the right time - and that we’ve got the right information to make good conclusions. You’ll own the day-to-day rhythm of the business, support our operational governance forums and deliver impactful insights through our MI and reporting. You’ll also play a hands-on role in making things better – partnering with others to fix problems, run projects, improve processes and make us more efficient as we grow.

On a typical day you will be…

• Owning and coordinating the operational rhythm of the business - including key governance forums and regular reporting
• Preparing governance materials (packs, agendas, minutes) and ensuring timely follow-up on actions and conclusions
• Producing regular operational MI and insights to support performance tracking and decision-making
• Partnering with the head of enablement in delivering cross-functional process improvement initiatives, identifying pain points or inefficiencies and designing, then delivering, practical solutions
• Managing the hands-on delivery of internal projects, tracking progress, doing actions and resolving blockers

This role’s for you if...

• You’re a strong operational thinker who can map, understand and improve recurring processes—spotting inefficiencies and opportunities to automate
• You’re comfortable with numbers and data, with great attention to detail and the ability to turn analysis into clear, useful insight
• You’re organised and structured, able to manage timelines, coordinate inputs and keep things moving
• You’re a clear communicator—able to simplify complex information in decks, reports or conversations
• You’re a natural problem-solver, skilled at identifying root causes and delivering practical, lasting improvements
• You’re delivery-focused—able to manage internal projects, track actions to completion and adapt quickly under pressure
• You’re confident using tools like Excel, Airtable, BI platforms and PowerPoint to support your work
• You’re dependable, collaborative and curious—someone who takes ownership, lives our principles, and cares about getting things done well and making them better

Experience working in start-ups, scale-ups, financial services and/or fintech is helpful but not a must.

This role isn’t for you if...

• You rely on a lot of top-down direction. Here, you’ll have a lot of freedom and ownership of your role, and you’ll be expected to shape your own progression
• You’re not comfortable working in a fast-paced environment. Our speed and scalability are what set us apart; you need to be able to act quickly and think on your feet
• You struggle to follow through on ideas. We value people who do what they say they will. If you care about something, you have the freedom here to make it happen
• You don’t like change. You’ll get on great here if you relish the ambiguity of rapid growth and are willing to embrace uncertainty

What’s In It For You…

• A salary between £60,000 and £70,000 – dependant on experience + reviewed annually
