Lead Product Manager Investment & Wealth Solutions (m/f)

About the job

Schwarz und Wyss - our favourite colours since 1899. Simple. Elegant. Straightforward. As an employer, however, we are refreshingly colourful, diverse and varied. And sometimes quite different from what you might think. Like here in the job advertisement. Because who actually says that women are simply implied in male texts? Because we want even more female power at BKB, we simply turn the tables and write in the female form. Men? Of course, you are still very welcome. Would you like to learn more about who we are and how we tick? Gladly .

Lead Product Manager Investment & Wealth Solutions (m/f)

Within the Product and Channel Management department, we are looking for reinforcement for the newly created role of "Lead Product Manager Investment & Wealth Solutions". In other words: you!

Your new job

As Lead Product Manager in the "Investment & Wealth Solutions" area, you design our investment and mandate solutions end-to-end and further develop the offering and service portfolio for different customer segments - the following tasks await you:

• Develop the product strategy for advisory solutions, align it with the overall bank strategy and ensure market success, quality and regulatory compliance
• Manage the entire product lifecycle: from idea through conception, implementation and rollout to stable operation ("Run the Bank") and continuous improvement
• Prioritise the backlog together with Product Owner and Business Owner, define business requirements with specialist departments and sales, and coordinate implementation across all relevant stakeholders
• Ensure, thanks to a holistic front-to-back understanding of the information flow - from CIO, Research and Investment Office through client advisory (RM) to back office - that clients and advisors can invest seamlessly, purposefully and in regulatory compliance in investment solutions
• Lead the employees in the product area professionally, manage projects and drive the further development of the advisory landscape in close cooperation with IT, sales and advisory
• Continuously analyse market trends, customer needs and competition, identify opportunities and risks, derive appropriate measures and communicate status, milestones and challenges transparently to management and relevant stakeholders

What we benefit from

• University degree, supplemented by banking professional training or further education, as well as several years of experience in product management and development of investment and mandate solutions with end-to-end responsibility for various customer segments
• Sound knowledge in project and process management (classical and agile), use of modern methods and tools (e.g. Scrum, Kanban, Continuous Improvement) as well as the current possibilities and limitations of AI in this environment
• Strong understanding of business contexts, market and customer needs as well as regulatory requirements in the Swiss financial market (e.g. FINMA)
• Experience in professional team leadership, development of expertise and targeted deployment of employees and resources
• Ability to analyse complex issues and communicate them appropriately to the audience, complemented by broad know-how in moderation, presentation and conducting workshops
• Solution-oriented working style, high self-motivation, enthusiasm and assertiveness
• Personality with high social competence, positive attitude and the ability to keep an overview and create clarity even in dynamic situations

What you benefit from

• Besides a bank with a long tradition, find further exciting ways to help shape the group at our young, cheeky subsidiary Bank Cler
• Varied and responsible tasks with scope for design
• Flexible working hours, opportunities for home office
• A workplace in the city centre, just a few minutes’ walk from the station
• Expect a comprehensive employment package from us? You’re right, here are the details and many other benefits
