Job Description

ABOUT FINBOURNE FINBOURNE Technology was founded in 2016 with the mission to reduce the cost of investing and increase transparency for everyone. We're doing this by changing the way the world manages investment data with LUSID, our open cloud-based investment data platform and marketplace. LUSID is for everyone in the asset management industry from start-up fund managers to global investment institutions. Seven of started on this journey and we have now grown to more than 65 people. We've taken best practice from the b2c technology world and applied this to a b2b technology world currently stuck on old legacy systems with limitations and lengthy implementation periods. What this means is that LUSID is open, API first and developer friendly - a true first for the asset management industry. You can see what our team is busy building- we've published APIs for all functions publicly, and released Software Development Kits for developers in four languages (C#, Java, Javascript, Python) on Github. With strong funding behind us and an expanding customer base, we have ambitious growth plans to become the de -facto industry standard for hosting the world's investment data. To help us build our open system where individuals and institutions own their own data, we're looking for talented and creative problem solvers to join our team. We think it's a pretty exciting place to be right now and we're always looking for passionate, innovative people to join us on our journey. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ JOB TITLE: PRODUCT MANAGER LOCATION: LONDON SALARY: COMPETITIVE ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Key responsibilities FINBOURNE is a product-centric organisation, placing the product manager at the heart of the evolution of our company.

This role is cross-functional - product managers will work closely with engineering, operations, sales, marketing, finance, executive teams and external clients /vendors.
