About RMS

There’s a 1% chance an earthquake will cause $50 billion of insured loss within the next 12 months and a 5% chance that a hurricane will cause $60 billion of insured losses next year. At RMS, we turn risks into real numbers. How? By building simulation models that allow insurers and investors to understand and manage their global risks--from hurricanes, quakes, and wildfires, to cyberattacks, terror attacks, and pandemics. Why? We want to build a more resilient world, and we’re on a mission to help make every risk known.

Insurers, reinsurers, investors, financial institutions, governments, and NGOs trust RMS solutions to better understand and manage catastrophe risks. RMS was founded in 1989 by Stanford scientists who created our first model for California Earthquake. Today, RMS has some 1,300 employees across 13 offices in the US, London, Bermuda, Zurich, India, China, Japan, Singapore, and Australia, and over 1,000 products and models now covering six continents.

RMS helped pioneer the natural catastrophe model market we now lead – and we continue to innovate. In May 2019, we announced RMS Risk Intelligence™ (RI), an open-standard platform for strategic risk management. Through this purpose-built platform, clients can tap into RMS HD models, rich data layers, intuitive applications and APIs that simply integrate into existing enterprise systems to support business decisions across underwriting, risk selection, mitigation, and portfolio management.

How we understand and manage risk affects everyone and our passion is nothing less than creating a more resilient world through a better understanding of catastrophic events. Join our team of leading scientists, developers, industry experts, and world-class professionals. Together, RMSers make a difference on a truly global scale.

We're looking for a Product Director (Small Business Growth) to join our scaling team in London. The role is a unique opportunity to grow as a product leader and to join our mission to make money without borders instant, convenient and eventually free for millions of people across the world.

Your mission working on business acquisition, onboarding and conversion:

We've already built our freelancer, micro and small business proposition into a substantial proportion of TransferWise's volume and growth. The opportunity is immense though, with so much more potential to save businesses money as they go international. Our aim is to shift from TransferWise being a tool that a business uses, to a platform both senders and receivers are on with an open ecosystem of partners.

We currently have a product team focussed on business onboarding, and we see the opportunity to assemble further teams around these growth opportunities, along with consolidating our product marketing and GTM approach.

Here's how you'll be contributing:

• You'll onboard businesses around the globe from their first interaction with the brand to their first effective saving
• Through your understanding of the key advantages of our product and its roadmap, you'll develop a competitive positioning for our SMB product
• You'll identify the most impactful opportunities for us to acquire more business customers whether through PR, marketing and partnerships or in-product discovery, virality or network effect. Through this strategy, within the first 6 months you'll be starting to increase the top of our acquisition funnel as well as the conversion rate
• You'll take responsibility for supporting our Conversion and Business Verification product teams as well as scaling-up any additional product teams if needed - You'll be hands on where necessary to incubate new teams and hire additional product managers and help them grow their impact on the mission
• You'll help coach, guide and onboard people into our growing small business marketing, product marketing and PR teams creating a common GTM approach
• Through talking to customers and qualitative / quantitative research you'll build a vision for how our SMB product needs to develop to be more relevant and useful to our customers

This role will give you the opportunity to:

• Choose your path to impact - we believe people are most empowered when they can act autonomously. So rather than telling you what to do, you'll work with your team to create a vision of your own
• Be flexible in how and where you work, we understand everyone needs a little something different so we'll do our best to make it happen
• Once travelling becomes safe again, you'll have the opportunity to travel and work with our teams in Tallinn, Budapest and New York as well as meet various partners and organisations when needed
• Grow as a leader - You will scale and inspire your own team, but also other teams to contribute to our mission

A bit about you:

• You are a seasoned Product person (5 years + product management experience) with experience of inspiring others - You can lead people and build teams that deliver at scale - whether that is hiring for new talent or getting the best out of the existing team
• You have empathy for your customers and can quickly identify the problems worth solving, explaining your rationale with data (rather than assumptions)
• You have a proven ability in building products where there's high degree of ambiguity on what to build in order to drive growth
• You have a track record of delivering world-class user experience on the web, iOS and / or Android
• You can easily own our product marketing and when needed, you'll happily get live a first version of a landing page or email campaign. You'll be able to coach researchers, designers, product marketers and copy writers to deliver high-quality content that performs
• You are hands-on with analytics tools and behavioral tracking (ie. Mixpanel, Google Analytics / Firebase or equivalent) and can easily coach analysts
• You're not afraid of learning skills you don't know yet to unblock yourself and your team. You don't stick to a "by the book" product lead role definition. You simply get it done.
• You understand technology and how to build products well enough to be able to help your teams move faster and prioritise tech debt and bugs versus building new features

Some extra skills that would be great (but not essential):

• You have awesome UI / UX Design skills
• You know your way around basic back-end development / databases
• You can create SQL on your own and build dashboards using BI tools like Looker

We're people without borders — without judgement or prejudice, too. We want to work with the best people, no matter their background. So if you're passionate about learning new things and keen to join our mission, you'll fit right in.

Also, qualifications aren't that important to us. If you've got great experience, and you're great at articulating your thinking, we'd like to hear from you.

And because we believe that diverse teams build better products, we'd especially love to hear from you if you're from an under-represented demographic.

#LI-SM1

Avocet is hiring a product manager who will work with our engineering and commercial leads to define product objectives and consumer needs, and then translate them into viable products.

You’ll multitask and work efficiently in the engineering team to deliver the projects that will define our business. To sum up, you’ll be a product manager who brings the best out of the team, is self-motivated, and displays leadership qualities. We want you to be a part of the leadership.

Culturally we love diverse opinions/approaches, open no-ego discussions, and careful deliberation leading to action. We’re all about measuring twice and cutting once.

Requirements

Your responsibilities

• Define product and prioritization strategy with the leadership team.
• Delivering the inputs to product success: thoughtful design, thorough documentation, well-briefed engineers, KPI analytics and hand-off to marketing & client services.
• Provide product forecasts
• Evaluate market research on competitors, markets and technology trends
• Support development by managing the product backlog and prioritizing problems
• Ability to synthesize inputs from cross-functional stakeholders: clients, engineers, sales, marketing, finance and partners to successfully drive business objectives

What we’re looking for

• 3+ years of product management experience
• Experience with web applications and digital marketing
• Experience with Github, AWS or other cloud providers
• Knowledge of Golang, JavaScript or Typescript
• Knowledge of advertising technology platforms and processes (such as OpenRTB)
• Experience performing user research, market/competitive research and soliciting customer feedback
• Experience working directly with software engineers
• Strong technical, time management, interpersonal, organizational, analytical, problem-solving and communication skills

Nice to have

• Experience with digital marketing & ad technology and platforms
• Experience with user storyboards and stack ranking methods
• Familiarity with APIs, SQL and web analytics frameworks
• Certifications in project management

Benefits

• Career/personal development workshops
• Flexible working hours and location
• Sick pay
• Meaningful stock options
• Employee representation on board
• Competitive Salary: £50,000 to £70,000 based on experience

• No cover letter, no reply!*
• Facebook, Google or... Zipabout?*

You’re probably reading this because you’re considering a similar role at Facebook, Google or one of the other big players – but you’re wondering if they will really deliver the challenge and potential that they’ve promised you…

Stuff here is getting exciting, so as we scale and grow into Europe we now need someone to lead our FED team and make sure we continue to rollout world-firsts – on time and on target. It goes without saying that you’re an accomplished FED, as you’ll be leading by example, but you will also have come from a product-led background and with a good head for commercial needs and how we can improve things. Production and delivery are only part of the role as you grow your team and take ownership of the product as we expands into new channels and markets.

Ideally you’ll have experience with a recognised brand delivering customer-led experiences on Messenger, WhatsApp or chat-bots, as well as a head for the architecture, UX and UI. This really isn’t a job for mid-weight web developers who have been building websites – you’ll be looking at this alongside product engineering roles for the biggest tech companies out there, and you’ll be expecting to be treated like a strategic part of the team who can help us expand into Europe and beyond.

• Responsibilities*

Currently our biggest bottleneck is Front-End production, so you'll hit the ground running, but as you grow your team you will be responsible for translating the commercial needs of the company and clients into the product we deliver. This will involve direct liaison with our partners at Facebook and WhatsApp, as well as client meetings and European travel as we scale.

You'll understand the importance of communication and stakeholder management just as well as you understand the tech - part developer, part solution designer, our next big step is waiting for you to lead it.

• Technical skills*

There won't be anything here that you're not already well experienced in - if you're going to hit the ground running we won't have time to teach you.‍

• Developing for messaging - Messenger, WhatsApp or chat-bots
• Developing Microservices
• Advanced JavaScript and ES6+ - Angular orReact
• Advanced HTML5 and SCSS, with excellent attention to detail
• Knowledge of AWS Lambda, CloudWatch and CodeBuild
• Experience with AWS CLI and SDKs
• Working with, and designing, RESTful APIs
• Experience writing unit tests to build robust code (we use Jasmine & Jest)
• Salary and benefits*

WFH and remote working is supported on a flexible basis, but you will be required to come to the office in Birmingam for at least 1-2 days a week (whilst restrictions allow).

• _We cannot consider international remote working!_*

The company has a good benefits package and the right candidate can expect generous share options alongside a negotiable and competitive salary as befitting a strategically vital role.

Job Types: Full-time, Permanent

Salary: From £75,000.00 per year

Benefits:

• Casual dress
• Company events
• Company pension
• Flexible schedule
• Work from home

Schedule:

• Monday to Friday

COVID-19 considerations:
Zipabout is following government guidance and currently all staff are working from home with a weekly catch-up in the Oxford office. We review the situation weekly.

Experience:

• Messenger / WhatsApp: 1 year (Required)
• AWS Lambda: 1 year (Preferred)
• front end development: 5 years (Required)

Work remotely:

• Yes
