Job description
Project overview
Contract role, based in Dubai, running to March 2027 with a likely two-year extension.
Involved Solutions is hiring a Product Owner - Wealth for a brand new, greenfield bank build in Dubai. This is the wealth proposition built from a blank page: platform, investment products, client journeys and the vendor stack, all being assembled from zero.
The bank is assembling its entire wealth proposition from a clean sheet across multiple third party providers, and needs one person who can own both the product and the delivery plan.
You'll co-own the product with the Business Owner and own the delivery plan alongside it, so this suits someone who wants both the product craft and the steering wheel, not a requirements-and-handover role.
About the role:
About you:
- Shape what gets built and in what order, and make the trade-off calls
- Own the core wealth solution: portfolio and order management, rebalancing, suitability, fees, valuations, performance and reporting
- Define the integration contract for every asset class provider, so vendors plug in without rebuilding the platform
- Shape the client journey end to end, from onboarding and risk profiling to statements and tax reporting
- Design the wealth operating model with Ops: trade and settlement, reconciliations, corporate actions, fee runs
- Own the delivery plan and vendor set: critical path, RAID, change control, and holding vendors to their dates
- Run the backlog and sprint cadence across the pod
- Carry the solution through build, SIT, UAT and go-live yourself
- 8-12+ years, having owned a wealth, investment or trading product end to end, built from zero or through a major re-platform
- Real delivery ownership, not attendance: plan, critical path, vendor dependencies, RAID, UAT, steering reporting. Close to half the role
- Has lived the full lifecycle personally, from requirements through go-live and early-life support
- Understands the order lifecycle, portfolio construction, custody and settlement, fee models, and AUM vs AUA
- Has driven third-party vendors to a plan through integration and go-live without burning the relationship
- Comfortable in a UX review, a sprint review and a vendor escalation call, all in the same week
- Wealth platform (OMS/PMS), international equities, digital assets or managed portfolio experience preferred
- UAE/GCC exposure welcome, not mandatory
