To help us achieve our goals, we’re seeking talented Product Owners to bolster our team. We’re looking for someone ambitious who of course loves the techy side of being a technologist but also someone who cares about delivering effective capabilities for our business colleagues.

• Defining and managing a robust product back log for your respective payment rails and drive the realisation of this with our technology teams, change teams, business teams, and suppliers
• Represent the bank at key industry events – engaging with a range of banking peers, providers, and payment schemes, ensuring we’re on the front foot prioritising product backlogs and allocating funding across both internal change and the change we drive through our suppliers
• Responsible for the performance of your payment rail(s), ensuring the payment systems they relate to are maintained, and any incidents relating to payment processing are resolved timely to minimise customer impacts
• As an expert, you’ll give clear direction, prioritising capabilities and outputs across both live service and change
• Ensure industry directions of travel, key decisions, and trends are documented and shared across our key stakeholders
• Be responsible for your payment rail(s) end to end, you will drive the capabilities to enhance performance against KPI measures – tangibly reporting progress and celebrating the teams successes
