I've spent 15 years in FinTech building consumer financial products end-to-end - payments, cards, embedded lending and digital banking - across Sberbank, UniCredit, Commercial Bank of Qatar and Fingular. I've launched cards under national payment schemes, taken a lending product from concept to regulator-cleared go-live, and run delivery for teams spread across several countries. So when we talk about how this industry actually hires and what the work really looks like, it's from the inside, not from a textbook. I help two kinds of people: those switching into project or product management from an adjacent field, and PMs who want to move into FinTech or payments. That means the practical stuff - how to reframe your existing experience so it reads as PM experience, how to position your CV, how to prep for interviews (including the questions that actually trip people up), and an honest read on where the real bar is. I'm also job-hunting myself right now, which I think makes me a better guide, not a worse one - my sense of the current market, what recruiters respond to, and what's changed is fresh, not five years old. Book a call if you want a straight, kind, no-fluff conversation about your next move.
