Hi, we’re Penfold 👋
Penfold is building the pension of the future. We’re dragging the multi-trillion-pound pension industry out of the dark ages with its outdated products and poor service. Think about how challenger banks have changed banking.
We’re demystifying pensions to make them universally accessible, engaging and easy so we can help everyone save enough for later life.
We’re growing a team of 70+ across London and Tallinn, backed by some of the world’s leading fintech investors. We’ve raised over £25 million, manage more than £1bn in pensions for over 100,000 savers and thousands of employers.
We’re on track for profitability next year and growing really quickly, named recently as the only pure-play pension company in Sifted’s 100 fastest growing startups in the UK&I.
About the role
We’re looking for a Senior Product Manager to lead high impact, revenue-driving initiatives across our key customer segments of savers, employers and intermediary partners.
You’ll operate with high autonomy, shaping strategic investment themes, sequencing initiatives and driving delivery across cross-functional teams. You will work closely with Engineering, Design, Sales, Operations and external partners to unlock long-term growth.
This is a senior individual contributor role with significant ownership and commercial exposure.
You will:
- Own a portfolio of revenue-driving initiatives with measurable commercial outcomes
- Prioritise across fundamentally different opportunity types e.g. integrations, funnel optimisations, partner enablement
- Lead structured discovery across integration-heavy, B2B and saver-facing initiatives
- Manage third-party dependencies and external partners proactively
- Define leading indicators and outcome metrics tied to AUA (pension assets) growth
- Make clear trade-offs and communicate them to senior stakeholders
You have:
- Experience owning and achieving meaningful business outcomes
- Demonstrable impact in revenue-adjacent areas such as growth, B2B enablement, integrations or monetisation
- Experience working in highly autonomous, accountable, cross-functional teams
- Strong judgement - you define success metrics, establish feedback loops and use qualitative and quantitative data to drive trade-offs
- Excellent, clear written and verbal communication
- High agency - you set the pace and take ownership
- A genuine interest in helping people save more for later life
Ideally you have previous experience…
- In fintech, pensions, payroll or highly regulated environments
- Working with Sales or Partnerships teams
- Modelling commercial impact or revenue-adjacent feedback loops
- Navigating and scaling complex operational workflows
You do not need to meet all of the above criteria in order to apply! If you’ve read this far and are excited about the opportunity, but are missing some of the experiences we’ve listed, we strongly encourage you to apply regardless.
Our application process
- We’ll have a 45 minute introductory call to properly introduce you to Penfold, find out more about your experience so far and career aspirations, and make sure you get a chance to ask any questions you might have
- The next stage would be a 90 minute exercise/task which is done over a video call at a time that suits you
- Finally, we’ll organise some sessions with some team members from inside and outside Product & Engineering for a few conversations about how we work together and what to expect day-to-day. You’ll also have the opportunity to ask them questions directly
For more info, feel free to reach out to George Cleal, our Head of Product.
