You will be responsible for driving customer growth, working in conjunction with our Growth teams to drive acquisition, and with our partner to deliver great customer experiences and strong economic returns.

Your key responsibilities will include:

• Leading continuous delivery management through regular feature and platform updates for our existing Bank-in-a-Box products
• Leading the development of new products on our roadmap
• Day to day management of the products delivered as part of the new digital offering, including risk and compliance management across the ETE process and through our digital channels
• Working closely with the bank's technology partner to define, develop, test and deliver products across the shared delivery model
• Ensuring the SME Bank's product proposition remains competitive and attractive, and aligned to target segment needs, to drive growth
• Work closely with the SME Growth, and Marketing and Digital teams to acquire and retain customers, through marketing activities and compelling digital experiences
• Setting and monitoring product pricing, balancing acquisition, and profitability, to support the growth of the SME Bank
• Monitor KPIs to improve future performance, undertake problem-solving and analysing/designing to identify improvements
