Kolomoni Microfinance Institution (Gambia) is a CBG-licensed microfinance institution serving customers across The Gambia. We are recruiting a Lead Product Manager to own product delivery across our technology initiatives.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
- Develop, maintain and communicate product roadmaps aligned with organisational objectives.
- Translate business requirements into clear product requirements, user stories, process flows and acceptance criteria.
- Own and prioritise the backlog on business value, customer impact and dependency.
- Hold requirements to standard — sufficiently defined and technically assessed before development begins.
- Facilitate refinement, sprint planning, demonstrations and release planning, and coordinate user acceptance testing.
- Manage dependencies, risks, constraints and delivery blockers, escalating what the team cannot resolve.
- Ensure security, compliance, regulatory and operational requirements are built in rather than retrofitted.
