Product Manager

YOUR ROLE

We need someone like you to help create products that help millions of users reach their personal finance goals. If you’re looking to make an impact while leveraging innovative technologies, this is the place for you. You will work alongside the Associate Director, Product Management to own the creation and execution of the product roadmap for FinanceBuzz and its 8 million (and growing!) visitors who come to our site each month.

Our team has built groundbreaking technology that helps us understand our users and helps them reach their personal goals every day across our portfolio of brands. On any given day you might be leveraging our proprietary platform to create widgets or funnels with flawless user experiences. Or you might be focusing on SEO or improving the CMS used by our team. Ultimately you will be making an impact while working with key business stakeholders to define the vision, strategy, and roadmap for FinanceBuzz.

You will be working cross-functionally with passionate, extremely smart individuals with tons of opportunities for learning, growth, and mentorship. We are an extremely fun and tight-knit team (our company retreats are fabulous), so we are very selective about who we hire to ensure our company values remain high.
