General Manager, Financial Services

Lead and grow our Financial services products. Currently, financial services at Wave consists of a customer overdraft and business cash advance product, but we have many additional lending, savings and insurance products on our roadmap. Growing our financial services business is a top priority for Wave and this role reports directly to our CEO. You will start by managing a Product Manager (who manages a team of engineers and data scientists exclusively working on Financial Services) and a business development team that works on regulatory approvals. You’ll also work cross functionally with finance, marketing and operations teams to drive the growth and profitability of our financial services products. Create and execute plans to grow financial services products across all functions — product, operations, finance & marketing. Experiment a lot and scale fast. Work with the business development teams to get bank partnerships and regulatory approvals needed for new lending products. Spend time in Wave markets visiting users and merchants to understand their pain points first hand. Come up with growth strategies and campaigns for each lending product. Manage a rapidly growing team across multiple markets and continue to build the team out in existing and new markets by attracting the best talent across all functions. Establish and manage both business and financial KPIs in close coordination with the CEO.
