WHO IS RATEHUB?

We’re a company on a mission - We are a unique Canadian Fintech that is the one stop shop for all financial needs of the consumer - Save, Spend, Borrow, Invest, and Protect. Every single team member, from product & engineering to sales & marketing, finance, operations, and everything in between is obsessed with one thing; helping Canadians make better financial choices. And we’re pretty great at it, too. Via our digital application technology and our award-winning in-house brokerages, we help over 2M Canadians per month make a positive impact on their finances. We have many unique businesses - a mortgage brokerage, a life insurance brokerage, a home and auto insurance brokerage, a mortgage originations and servicing business, a Financial Services Marketplace and a content business across Ratehub and MoneySense. 365 days a year we deliver our users the best online mortgage experience, personalized Credit Card and Loans options, and cheaper auto & home insurance policies than they typically get from their existing financial adviser.

Changing how people make financial choices isn’t easy, though. We know that achieving our mission is full of challenges; challenges that can be complex and often unexpected, but that are always interesting, rewarding, and fun to solve as a team. This is where you come in. We are on the hunt for the right kind of people to join us and help lead us forward to continued growth.

We’re looking for a Product Manager to join our growing Product team, (based in downtown Toronto but also open to remote candidates). The Product Manager will report directly to our Head of Product, and will support Ratehub’s Mortgage business by partnering closely with the business unit leader to drive the vision forward.

  • Work with designers and the development team to transform business strategy into a roadmap with actionable sprint plans

  • Manage day-to-day scrum activity and prioritize efforts for a team consisting of developers, designers, and quality assurance
  • Coordinate with other business functions for product launch and implementation, including developing marketing plans, ensuring operational readiness, and any other launch requirements

  • Demonstrated ability to manage project plans, multi-task, and meet deadlines
  • Detail-oriented, and able to pivot and re-prioritize efforts as required
