Senior Product Manager - Banking at FairMoney

Role Overview

• As a Senior Product Manager in our Banking division, you will own the strategy and roadmap for products at the heart of how millions of Nigerians move and manage their money.
• You will also be the voice of the Nigerian customer inside the product org - translating a deep, first-hand understanding of local financial behaviour into products that feel effortless and trustworthy.
• This role demands strong product craft and genuine proximity to the Nigerian customer: how they pay, save, and bank, and where today’s experiences fall short.

Key Responsibilities

• Product Strategy & Vision: Develop a clear, compelling strategy for your banking products that supports FairMoney’s objectives, and prioritise market opportunities to stay competitive in Nigeria’s fast-moving landscape. Partner with engineering to shape the scalability and reliability of the platform that powers them.
• Voice of the Nigerian Customer: Be the team’s deepest source of truth on Nigerian customer needs, behaviours, and pain points — bringing local market insight (competitor moves, trust and fraud concerns, pricing and network realities) into every roadmap and design decision.
• Roadmap Management: Work with Engineering, Growth, Design, Data Science, Risk, Compliance, and Operations to build and continuously refine an achievable roadmap, and brutally prioritise against agreed goals.
• Insights & Analysis: Use market research and data-driven insight to make informed product decisions, enhance user experiences, and drive customer satisfaction.
• Development & Launch: Own the product lifecycle end to end, from concept to launch, ensuring quality, reliability, and regulatory compliance - delivered on time and on budget.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Finance, Computer Science, or a related field; a Master’s is a plus.
• Minimum 5 years as a Product Manager, with hands-on experience building one or more banking / payments products like transfers (strongly preferred), cards, bill payments, wallets, or accounts preferably in fintech.
• Deep first-hand understanding of the Nigerian customer and local financial ecosystem is required — how Nigerians pay, transfer, and bank, and the trust, pricing, fraud, and reliability factors behind their choices.
• Proven track record developing and launching successful fintech products at scale.
• Strong analytical, data-driven decision-making skills.
• Excellent leadership and communication skills, and the ability to collaborate across cross-functional teams.
• Entrepreneurial, hands-on mindset with a KPI-oriented approach.
• Experience at a leading Nigerian fintech or bank, and with platform products, is a strong advantage.

Benefits

• Competitive pay.
• Paid annual leave.
• A network of talented colleagues.
