WHO WE ARE: TrueLayer is Europe’s fastest-growing Pay by Bank network. We power smarter, safer and faster payments by combining real-time bank payments with financial and identity data. E-commerce, iGaming and Financial Services businesses use our products to onboard new users, accept money and make payouts in seconds, and at scale. Live across 22 countries and with 1 new user joining TrueLayer’s Pay by Bank network every 3 seconds, we’re in a very exciting growth stage. This is why we’re expanding the team across our offices in London, Milan, and Dublin. Listed in Sifted as one of the 100 fastest growing start-ups in UK & Ireland, and CNBC’s World Top Fintech Companies, we’re trusted by industry leaders like RyanAir and Just Eat Takeaway for continued innovation within our payment products. To date, we’ve raised over $300 million from world-renowned investors including Stripe, Tiger Global, Northzone, and Tencent. But this is just the beginning. We’re looking for people who are excited about joining the Pay by Bank revolution and helping us change the way the world pays. Could this be you? DESCRIPTION As Product Manager II – Consumer Payments, you’ll help shape the strategy and execution of TrueLayer’s consumer-facing payment journeys, working closely with a world-class team of engineers, PM’s and designers. You’ll define, track, iterate, and improve upon how users initiate, confirm and complete payments across our network, ensuring that every transaction is simple, trusted and effective. You’ll operate at the intersection of technology, regulation and partnership, collaborating with merchants, platforms and internal teams to design experiences that feel effortless, even when delivered through complex integrations. This role is pivotal to ensuring that the scale and reliability of TrueLayer’s infrastructure translate into seamless experiences for end users. Your work will directly influence how millions of people experience bank payments across Europe, helping TrueLayer set the standard for how money moves online. AS OUR PRODUCT MANAGER, YOU WILL: * Craft the design of our critical Payments API, the gateway to TrueLayer’s products for our merchants and a foundation for our user interfaces. * In collaboration with other functional PMs, lead the product vision and roadmap for consumer payments, from initiation through settlement. * Partner with merchants, partners and other teams to design user journeys, and the technical aspects behind them, that maximise conversion and trust. * Develop and champion a deep understanding of user motivations and behaviours, translating insights into improvements that drive adoption and satisfaction. * Own the sprint planning and backlog for the PayIns Engineering team, working closely with Design, Compliance, Data and Commercial teams to deliver products that balance regulatory standards, technical excellence and user experience. * Use quantitative and qualitative insight to identify friction, test hypotheses and measure the impact of new capabilities and design improvements. * Define, own and co-own clear metrics for success and establish accountability for outcomes across your product area. ABOUT YOU * Good product management experience. It would be great if this experience was within payments or fintech, but we’re open to non-fintech backgrounds, particularly another regulated technology environment. * Highly comfortable working with API-driven products or infrastructure and translating technical capability into customer value. Ideally, you’ll have built public-facing APIs before. * Proven experience delivering products where customer experience depends on integrations with partners or third-party systems. * Good understanding of payment flows and the financial ecosystem * Clear communicator who can build alignment across engineering, design, compliance, commercial and external partner teams, including navigating strong conflicting opinions * You’re comfortable operating where data, systems and ownership are distributed, and can create clarity and momentum in complex client ecosystems. * Don’t meet all the requirements?

At TrueLayer, we are committed to building a diverse workforce, so if you are excited about this role and have the essential skills, but not the entire checklist - we’d still love to hear from you! BENEFITS WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM US: * Meaningful equity in the company 💰 * Flexible hours and hybrid working. Split your time 50/50 between working from home and our welcoming offices in London and Milan , spending 2-3 days per week in the office. * Need to collect the kids from childcare? Love a workout in the gym first thing?
