THE DIFFERENCE YOU MAKE

Openbank is looking for a Senior Product Manager based out of Madrid. You will lead one cross‑functional squad focused on improving the Openbank mobile app for Individuals. You will partner closely with Engineering, Design/UX, Data, Operations, Customer Growth, Customer Needs, and Risk, Legal and Compliance. You will also collaborate with other product teams, platform teams and international stakeholders across Openbank and Santander. Your job is to identify the highest‑impact opportunities within your area, turn them into clear product bets, and lead your squad from discovery → shipped product → measurable outcomes. This is a hands‑on product leadership role focused on strategy, discovery, prioritisation and value delivery. It is not an operations, service‑delivery or project‑coordination role. We’re shaping the way we work through innovation, cutting‑edge technology, collaboration and the freedom to explore new ideas. To succeed in this role, you will be responsible for:

• Own the vision, roadmap and prioritisation of the Openbank app experience.
• Lead one cross‑functional squad, aligning Engineering, Design, Data and business partners around clear customer and business outcomes.
• Define and own product metrics across activation, engagement, conversion, retention, self‑service and customer satisfaction.
• Lead continuous discovery using product data, customer feedback, UX research and experimentation.
• Identify high‑impact customer problems and simplify complex journeys across the app.
• Translate customer and business needs into clear hypotheses, MVPs, product requirements and success criteria.
• Prioritise based on customer value, business impact, strategic alignment, regulation and technical feasibility.
• Work closely with other product managers to create a consistent and connected app experience across journeys.
• Monitor performance after launch and use evidence to improve, iterate or change direction.

• Zero‑to‑one, major feature or product‑rebuild experience: taking ambiguous problems from idea → shipped product → measurable outcomes.
• Experience in banking, fintech, financial services or another regulated digital environment.
