ABOUT US

Looking to join an emerging leader in the UK FinTech industry? It’s such an exciting time to be joining Vitesse!

Created by a team of proven FinTech entrepreneurs in 2016, Vitesse PSP has recently closed a $92m Series-C funding round. Now having established revenue streams and a differentiated position in key segments we have embarked on a journey to double our revenue in each of the next three to four years. We employ around 180 colleagues across the EU with hubs in London and Rotterdam, with plans to expand into the US this year. In 2024, we plan to scale our product and platform engineering team further to take advantage of the market opportunity across Europe and position us to enter the US.

Our existing solution allows us to operate one of the largest domestic banking and payment networks in the world, from our UK regulated business, giving our customers direct access to more than 100 countries’ banking networks, supporting over 60 currencies. Through a single integration, merchants gain access to in-country payment routing, resulting in significantly lower payment costs and much faster delivery. To date, we have processed over £3bn across more than 3 million transactions and are looking to more than double volumes each year. We have paired this network with treasury capabilities to create a compelling offering targeted at the insurance vertical.

We now need to rapidly scale-out our engineering capability to build a global version of this platform that supports multiple regulatory hubs and points of origination.

The Product Owner’s mission is to lead a high-performing squad, working closely with a Business Analyst and an Engineering Lead, to deliver market-leading claims data, reporting, notifications, and reconciliation capabilities. Your role is to ensure clients have the right information, in the right place, at the right time, empowering them to make better decisions and drive operational efficiency.

We’re looking for a commercially aware, client-facing Product Owner with the curiosity and drive to become a subject-matter expert in claims data and insights. By understanding client needs, regulatory requirements, and operational workflows, you will craft a clear vision for a smarter, more transparent claims information ecosystem and lead your engineers to bring that vision to life.

You will define and prioritize the product roadmap, turning complex data and operational requirements into actionable features. By collaborating with Internal stakeholders and directly with strategic Vitesse customers, you will ensure that data insights, reporting, notifications, and reconciliation features combine into an effective and actionable information flow, helping clients operate efficiently and confidently.
