Job Description
Your Mission
As a Product Academist joining the programme, you will be placed in one of our teams that both power Wise and ensure our customers have a safe and convenient experience when using us. You will get to build your skills in Product Management through a tailored learning program in combination with executing on real problems.
After your successful graduation from the Product Academy, you will transition into a full-time member of the Wise Product team as an Associate Product Manager!
What is Product Academy?
It’s a 12 week tailored programme in which every week you will get to spend time both on dedicated sessions to learn about Product Management, and also with learning on the job by working on your own projects/products.
You will start working on your domain (i.e. the team you are hired into), but spend half of your time with Product Academy - until graduation.
Every week will have a topic - Mondays will be more for presentations, and by the end of it you will get an assignment that you need to work on until Friday. On Friday, you present your results!
For every topic, our goal is to talk about the generic concept, the Wise specific and also the practical bits (tools, real examples).
This will include exciting bits, such as:
Product vision, strategy & roadmap
OKRs, KPIs & Measuring
Stakeholder management
Planning
Agile development, working with developers
Using AI tools as a Product Manager
… And many others!

Work across the entire product lifecycle - you will go through the entire lifecycle of a product, from problem hypothesis and validation to solution implementation, measurement and iteration.
