More about our mission and what we offer.

Join our dynamic Wise Platform team as a Business Operations Manager, where you will play a crucial role in scaling our product for downstream operational teams and improve the experience for enterprise businesses and banks partnering with Wise. This position offers the unique opportunity to influence Wise’s mission, enhance the operational and product roadmap, and establish partnerships that facilitate instant, borderless money for more people.

You will be one of the first members of the Wise Platform Business Operations team. Our focus is on creating a bridge between our Product-Engineering and Operations teams. Your role will heavily focus on scaling the operations for banks and financial institutions - some of our partners include Morgan Stanley, Unicredit, Monzo, Standard Chartered.

Here’s how you’ll do:

• Be the operational representative for Wise Platform, supporting our squad through challenges in launching or managing partners

• Look into potential operational blockers that could challenge our growth, such as when partners or their customers are hit with unnecessary alerts, when the communication is unclear or not scalable, when too many touchpoints are needed to resolve cases, when SLAs are not improving etc

• Work closely with operational teams, providing feedback from the partners’ point of view, challenging them when they are too risk averse

• You will do the opposite with Product teams - challenge them when they don’t consider risk well enough, and encourage them to consider the operational impact of their actions       

• Help Wise serve its platform partners in the best way by setting up Operational teams SLAs, find ways to improve their processes, build demand-capacity plans and provide the Product teams with insights from the Ops teams

• Run side by sides sessions with Ops agents and go through cases to find insights, and build solutions accordingly

 

A bit about you: 

• You’re passionate about helping customers. They are at the heart of what you do and that empathy drives your decisions

• You’re entrepreneurial and hands-on – You have delivered high impact product solutions before in data-driven environments, using a mix of product and process solutions and have seen them through to production

• You have a deep understanding of operations, processes, procedures - ideally FinCrime operations experience

• You are fluent with data, can use spreadsheets and analytics dashboards for insights, preferably you know SQL and Python

• You can go through loads of qualitative data points: customer contacts, operational cases and side-by-sides sessions

This role will give you the opportunity to:

• Choose your path to impact – we believe people are most empowered when they can act autonomously. So rather than telling you what to do, you’ll work with your team to create a vision of your own. Of course, you can always gather feedback from smart, curious people across Wise but you’ll have the freedom to make your own calls

• Get amazing exposure to the full breadth and depth of our product for partners
