Job Title

Product Manager - Data

Product Manager - Data

Your focus will be enabling IG to gain optimal value from the Data we create, hold and process. You’ll work with stakeholders at every level to help

shape a vision and strategy to help IG build world class tools and processes that enable us to leverage our data to create insights, make decisions and identify opportunities. You’ll drive the adoption of enabling data tools to bring the value in our data to everyone at IG.

To do this, you’ll work with our Data Engineering teams in India, the UK and elsewhere to shape our Roadmaps and Product Backlogs, prioritising the products and services we’ll build to realise our future vision.

You’ll understand the importance of balancing the development of capabilities, products and services whilst ensuring our teams have the space and time to make our platforms robust, performant and less limited by technical debt.

You’ll have evidence of working with Cloud Data platforms like Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and be able to help create context and understanding with non-technical stakeholders and engineers alike. You’ll be able to hold a technical conversation at a level that demonstrates an understanding of first principles with engineers and technical leaders.

You’ll work with other Product Managers right across IG to organise and slice areas of focus, together prioritising, planning and iterating on your product areas to solve valuable problems.

You’ll work alongside other areas of IG such as Data Science, AI and Infrastructure to collaborate and combine effort to build value.

You’ll be ready to compromise pragmatically and positively to help iteratively grow our processes at a time of change, helping us make progress in a challenging mix of dependencies, multiple projects and dynamic team resource profile.

You’ll be able to define and communicate clearly, the ‘why’ of your vision and have a laser focus on understanding the needs of your customers.

Data is a highly complex, technical area where many of the products and services we’ll build overlap and complement one another. Therefore you’ll be able to understand architectural concepts and collaborate with engineering colleagues to understand the solutions that are shaped.

You’ll also need to work closely with the Product team to achieve your product vision in a collaborative way, achieving not only your objectives but helping team members identify and create compelling cross cutting services so we grow as a whole.

With your steer, the Data area will evolve and change over time. Some of the solutions we define, or areas we’ll iterate on will begin as loosely defined objectives, that’ll you’ll shape to grow into a rich Data ecosystem

that helps IG grow at pace.

Who we’re looking for?

You’re curious about things like the client experience, the rapid developments in tech, and the complex world of fintech regulation. You’re also a

confident, creative thinker with a knack for innovating. We know that you know every problem has a solution. Here, you can try new ideas, and lead the way in creating inspiring experiences for our clients and everyone around you.

We don’t fit the corporate stereotype. If you want to work for a traditional, suit-and-tie corporate that just gives you a pay cheque at the end of the

month, we might not be for you. But, if you have that IG Group energy and you can stand behind what we believe in, let’s raise the bar together.

• Proven ability to define and execute a product vision, strategy and road-map
• Capability to understand commercial imperatives of how IG products work and the commercial models that underpin them
• Proven ability to go from strategic planning to delivery of both innovative initiatives and tactical activities that optimize business value
• Proven technical expertise, knowledge of data principles and experience with working with data engineering teams
• Excellence at identifying cross program and product dependencies
• Bring awareness of emerging data technologies and suppliers
• Experience working with Agile projects at scale, with several different streams and different stakeholders
• Ability to negotiate, inspire, support and influence both business and technical stakeholders
• Work alongside key stakeholders, including technology, commercial, marketing and operations
• Proven experience in positively Influencing suppliers

IG Group is a FTSE 100 fintech operating across five continents, serving over 1.4m customers and handling billions of dollars in transactions – built on scale, trust, and proof. We didn't pivot to innovation; it's how we've always operated. What that means for the people who work here is real: genuinely complex problems to solve, the technology and resources to tackle them properly, and the kind of scope that's rare in established businesses.

The bar is high – bring a curious and forward-thinking mindset and we'll give you the platform to define what comes next.

Join us at IG – the future gets built here.

It really is more than a job. We think like a start-up, but we deliver like a FTSE 100 — so the bar is high, and we won't pretend otherwise. We work hybrid, which means three days in the office. We’ll recognise your talent and make sure that you can still have a life – at work, and outside of it. Networks, committees, awards, sports and social clubs, mentorships, volunteering opportunities, extra time off… the list goes on.
