if the candidate has experience with crypto/tokenization/digital assets, that will be a plus – otherwise banking required
Position Overview
We are seeking an experiencedSenior Product Owner (10+ years of experience) to drive the hands-on execution of a high-priority product launch for a major market infrastructure player in financial services.
Following a successful MVP validation, this initiative is moving into its next expansion phase - scaling the platform for a target initial launch at the end of October, followed by multiple phased rollouts throughout the upcoming year.
This role requires a trueProduct Owner (not a pure PMO profile) who brings a balance of product ownership, delivery discipline, structured communication, and cross-functional leadership in a high-visibility, multi-stakeholder environment.
Key Responsibilities
- Product Ownership & Execution: Drive product readiness and execution toward the October launch and subsequent quarterly rollouts. Translate high-level product strategy into actionable launch milestones.
- Cross-Functional Conduit: Act as the primary conduit coordinating across product, engineering, technology, delivery, client-facing teams, external vendors, and industry partners (~20–30 team members across the broader program).
- Dependency & Risk Management: Proactively track program readiness, testing, dependencies, and issues. Apply strong product judgment to identify trade-offs, escalate risks early, and ensure momentum is sustained.
- Stakeholder Alignment & Client Support: Manage stakeholder communications across internal teams, consulting leads, and industry-wide client participants.
- Product Backlog & Delivery: Partner closely with the Delivery Lead and Project Leadership to keep all streams aligned without taking on administrative PMO overhead.
Key Qualifications
- Experience Level: 10+ years of professional experience in Product Ownership, Product Management, or complex technical delivery within Financial Services or Capital Markets.
- Product Ownership vs. Project Management: Proven track record of managing product trade-offs, prioritizing backlog items, and driving execution in large-scale multi-stakeholder programs (rather than managing pure project timelines/PMO tasks).
- Communication & Navigation: Outstanding verbal and written communication skills; demonstrated ability to build consensus across fragmented, inter-company teams (Engineering, Tech, Product, and Client-Facing teams).
- Industry Domain: Familiarity with financial market infrastructure, wholesale banking, capital markets, or post-trade processing.
- Digital Assets / Tokenization (Plus): Prior experience or exposure to Digital Assets, Blockchain, or Tokenization is a plus, but not mandatory for candidates with strong core product execution discipline.
Interview Process
- Round 1 (online): Initial Screening with GFT
- Round 2 (online): Technical & Experience Interview with Oliver Wyman Project Lead (Karanvir) & Associate Partner.
- Round 3 (in-person): Leadership Interview with Oliver Wyman Senior Partner.
- Round 4 (in-person): Final Client Interview with Product Leadership Team.
