Product Manager

We're the team behind Up, but under the hood, we're Ferocia - a passionate tech company driven by financial inclusion. Since 2011, we've been crafting innovative financial tools, starting with the digital platform for Bendigo Bank. We believe technology can empower everyone, from the advantaged to the disadvantaged, which is why Up was born.

Now, as part of the Bendigo and Adelaide Bank family, we combine the agility of a small company with the reach and stability of a major player. Together, we're carbon neutral, community-focused, and dedicated to high standards of corporate governance. Our mission? To leverage technology to help Australians move from financial stress and anxiety to a place of confidence and empowerment.

• Defining requirements for a solution that is loved by our users.
• Providing insight and suggestions to steer product roadmap and innovating within your product area by proposing ambitious features.
• Communicating successfully within the project team and at multiple levels of management, building trust across the organisation.
• Documenting ROI or impact for a given action, feature, or prioritisation decision.

• Experience designing and delivering end to end projects (from idea to successfully launched) - with at least ~5-7 years working with engineering teams.
• Passion - harder to define, but we're looking for people who have a desire to push the limits, break the status quo, and be at the forefront of where technology is leading us. An eagerness to learn, expand your skills, and do the best work possible.
• Project delivery experience - a must have is your ability to track progress and provide reporting and measurements of project effectiveness. You need to inspire and motivate teams as well as be able to communicate wins and challenges to key business leaders.
• Product lens - Being able to understand customer and business needs and know when when to focus on the big picture vs zoom into the details.
• Independence - ability to work with a certain level of ambiguity, and "get shit done" autonomously, but still know when to ask for help. You're proactive without waiting for direction from others, and can identify opportunities on your own, and bring them to your team.
• The ability to attend our Melbourne CBD office at least six times a year for company days, plus some in-office days to start while you're getting settled in. We're currently only hiring in the Melbourne area for this reason.

#LI-Hybrid

We have a hybrid work culture where people can attend the Ferocia office as much or as little as makes sense for them, but we are currently only hiring in Melbourne (or adjacent areas) as we still value physically getting together at least a half-dozen times per year.

We offer:

• A small team of passionate people
• Generous leave and parental policy
• Flexible working schedule
• Great city office and perks (rooftop, gym and personal trainer, games…)
• Budget for personal development, training, and conferences
• Employee Assistance Program via Sonder
• Home loan rebates for our loans (conditions apply)
• Ongoing equity grants (conditions apply)

Not quite ticking every box? Throw your hat in the ring anyway! At Ferocia, we're all about shaking things up and rewriting the rules. We thrive on diversity and inclusion, and we wholeheartedly encourage you to step up and shine. Let us be the judge of your qualifications for this role – you just might surprise yourself!
