At Kroo Bank, we’re building a better bank from the ground up. One that puts customers first, treats money responsibly, and uses technology to make everyday banking simpler, fairer and more transparent. We’re a fully regulated UK bank, backed by long-term investors, with a growing customer base and big ambitions. We move fast, think carefully, and hold ourselves to high standards, whether that’s how we build products, manage risk, or look after our people. How you will contribute and key responsibilities: As a Senior Product Manager, you will drive the end to end product lifecycle for initiatives that strengthen Kroo’s financial crime controls, operational effectiveness, and automation capabilities. You will translate complex risk and operational requirements into customer and colleague focused solutions that are safe, compliant, scalable and measurable. You will work closely with Product, Technology, Data, Operations, Financial Crime, Risk and Compliance teams to deliver improvements that reduce risk, lower operational burden, and enhance decision making across the bank. Other responsibilities include: Set the vision for your squad, turn that into strategy, and make a positive impact on our customers’ lives. Collaborate with your squad to design and deliver safe, reliable and efficient financial crime and operational workflows across customer facing and internal channels. Take ownership for the success of your products, managing the entire lifecycle from discovery, planning, build, go to market where relevant, and ongoing optimisation post launch. Define and own your backlog, making trade offs to deliver customer and business value on time and within agreed constraints, with clear attention to risk and operational impact. Be an exponent of continuous discovery across financial crime, operations, and automation, validating ideas that improve controls, efficiency, auditability and customer outcomes through insight and experimentation. Transform complex requirements and evolving regulation into well defined product specifications, user stories and acceptance criteria that enable high quality delivery. Partner with Financial Crime stakeholders to improve prevention and detection capabilities across areas such as AML, CTF, sanctions, fraud and transaction monitoring, aligned to the bank’s risk appetite. Work with Operations teams to map processes, identify pain points, remove unnecessary manual steps, and deliver measurable improvements to service, productivity and quality. Drive automation initiatives that reduce manual work and errors, including workflow tooling, case management improvements, rules optimisation, straight through processing, and intelligent decisioning. Make data informed decisions and take hard calls when data is scarce, using insight, experimentation, sound judgement and clear documentation of rationale and outcomes. Collaborate with key stakeholders across the bank including Product and Technology, Design, Operations, Financial Crime, Risk, Compliance, Legal, Finance and the leadership team to ensure alignment and successful delivery.
