- Coordinate cross-functional collaboration across Product, Marketing, Finance, Legal, Compliance, and Operations.
- Manage relationships with external partners and potential acquisition targets.
- Track performance of initiatives using defined KPIs and success metrics.
- Support new market launches through the initial stabilization phase.
Your profile:
- Several years’ experience in a role driving new business initiatives (Business Development, Strategy, Expansion, Business Management, or Financial Product Development), ideally within financial services, brokerage, or fintech.
- Experience with P&L responsibility for a business line, product, or market.
- Experience leading at least one other person and willingness to grow into managing a small team.
- Experience working with Legal and Compliance on product launches, market entries, or client propositions.
- Strong commercial and strategic thinking with understanding of revenue drivers and unit economics.
- Excellent analytical and financial modelling skills, able to build and challenge business cases.
- Proven ability to coordinate cross-functional initiatives end-to-end within deadlines.
