Product Manager

Lendscape is building a multi-year validated product roadmap and establishing the structures, practices and culture that define a product-led company. The Product Manager we hire will not be inheriting a finished playbook, they will help define it and will be able to influence how their team's capacity is built up and managed to support their product initiatives.

• Own the problem space for your assigned product area across the receivables finance, open accounting and asset finance.
• Conduct continuous customer and market discovery — interviews, contextual enquiry, data analysis — to validate assumptions and surface unmet needs before committing to solutions.
• Develop and maintain a validated opportunity backlog, distinguishing clearly between problems worth solving and those that are not.
• Define clear, measurable outcome goals for each initiative and communicate them to the team and stakeholders.
• Build a deep understanding of the regulatory, commercial and operational environment in which our customers operate (UK, USA, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and other target markets).
• Maintain a single, transparent backlog for your product area.
• Apply strict, evidence-based ROI prioritisation to your backlog and be able to defend why items above the line earned their place.
• Work with the Product Operations Manager to prioritise and sequence additional high integrity commitments.
• Make trade-offs across demand types visible to your Product Director, Engineering Manager and stakeholders, including reasoning and where lower-priority work will not be delivered in a given cycle.
• Collaborate with your Engineering Manager and Engineers as your core delivery partnership, operating in short, iterative delivery cycles with a bias toward learning quickly.
• Write clear, outcome-oriented user stories, acceptance criteria and supporting context, not feature specifications.
• Make hard, transparent prioritisation decisions based on customer value, strategic fit, technical feasibility and commercial impact.
• Take accountability for outcomes delivered, not just features shipped. Track whether solutions are working and iterate based on evidence.
• Champion product quality — accessibility, performance and reliability — as non-negotiable standards.
• Build trusted relationships with key customers (including enterprise clients in banking, specialist lending and secured finance) to fuel ongoing discovery.
• Work closely with Sales and Customer Operations to ensure the roadmap is credibly communicated and commercially understood.
• Participate in, and sometimes lead, customer-facing product discovery sessions, including with clients such as major banks and global finance providers.
• Provide input into pricing, packaging and commercial model decisions that affect how your product area generates value for Lendscape.
• Contribute to the development of Lendscape's product culture: outcome orientation, intellectual honesty, shared ownership of failure and success.
• Participate in planning, roadmap and OKR processes, ensuring your product area's direction is coherent with the wider product strategy.

• Demonstrable experience as a Product Manager or Senior Product Manager in a B2B SaaS environment.
• A working command of modern product discovery and delivery practices: Jobs to Be Done, continuous discovery, dual-track agile, or equivalent frameworks.
• Ability to synthesise complex customer, commercial and technical inputs into a clear product direction.
• Strong analytical capability: comfortable working with product data, usage analytics, financial metrics and qualitative customer evidence.
• Comfort operating within a capacity-constrained delivery model. Able to make and openly defend trade-offs across competing demand types rather than treating capacity as elastic.
• Excellent communication skills. Able to write with precision and speak with authority to customers, engineers, and executives alike.
• Experience working in or alongside complex financial services, enterprise software, or highly regulated B2B environments.
• A genuine appetite for accountability: you want to own outcomes, not just contribute to them.

• Hybrid work model in London.
