Product Owner - Deposits & Lending

Nordnet offers services that simplify savings, investments and loans. With smart solutions and a modern approach, we focus on active savers in the Nordic region. Our vision is to become the leading bank for savings in the Nordic countries. We will get there by using simplicity as a starting point, with the best interest for our savers in mind. Nordnet AB (Publ) is listed on NASDAQ OMX Stockholm.

Nordnet Product

The product organisation at Nordnet is responsible for the user experience of Nordnet’s digital presence and ensures that our customers have access to the best products. The Chief Product Officer (CPO), who is part of the Nordnet management team, and to whom you will be reporting, heads the department.

Product Owner and Requirement Analyst from Products along with a Pipe Master, Developers, Testers and QA from IT form a Product Pipe. We currently have seven such pipes out of which Deposits & Lending is one.

All teams in the Product and IT organisations work agile and follow the development methods Scrum or Kanban.

Your Role

We are not a regular run of the mill bank. There are no casual Fridays because every day is wear-whatever-you-want-day, we do happiness retrospectives every sprint, we drink from cups with slogans like “Solve the problem not the blame” and we are probably further advanced in design sprinting than any company you now (maybe except Google who invented the model).

In the Deposits and Lending pipe (our name for product teams) we make sure that we continuously improve our deposit flow and innovate on our lending products (a wide range of them). Both areas are crucial to Nordnet current and future performance and are deeply integrated with all parts of the organisation.

This is where you come in to play. As Product Owner for Deposits & Lending, you will be responsible for outlining the strategic direction for the deposit flow of our customers as well as our secured lending products.

• Research, understand and act upon the competitive landscape
• Actively contribute to feature discussions
• Communicate Product activities throughout the organisation
• Closely collaborate with fellow Product Owners and the rest of Nordnet to bring complex cross dependent initiatives to a timely close
• Understand fintech disruptions and how we take and maintain a leading position in the future financial market
• Closely collaborate with marketing team in order to create maximum impact product launches
• Constantly push product growth
