Product Manager - Dunedin

At MTF, our mission is to help New Zealanders get ahead by making lending about people again . We’re New Zealand’s money experts with locals helping locals all over the motu, powered by a world-class funding system.

100% New Zealand-owned and operated since 1970, MTF provides personal and business loans to Kiwis old and new through our nationwide network of over 200 franchised offices, vehicle dealers, and business partners. We’ve grown to be one of New Zealand’s iconic household-name brands, with business assets of more than $1B.

There is a strong sense of pride in the work we do. We have a fervent love for our Dunedin heritage but we’re a national business, and a team, who reach communities and customers right across New Zealand.

When you join MTF, you join a dynamic, innovative, and highly trusted team. Whether you join our National Office or one of our franchises, you’re joining a team that shares a deep passion for the communities we serve and doing the best for our customers, while also having an unwavering commitment to helping our own people learn, grow, and thrive.

About the role

As a Product Manager reporting to our Product & Design Lead, you’ll lead a talented squad of developers, designers, analysts and data specialists, driving the delivery of new products, systems and improvements as part of our company-wide Business Transformation Programme. Your role is all about translating big ideas into real results — from breaking down work into manageable chunks, to leading agile rituals, to ensuring what we deliver is valuable, functional, and future-focused.

Once our transformation programme wraps up, you’ll take ownership of a key product vertical (like unsecured loans), managing its evolution and performance, and ensuring the customer journey shines across our new digital platforms.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone ready to deepen their expertise and become a product SME — with mentorship and guidance from senior leaders to help you get there.

Just some of the things you’re responsible for :

• Lead the delivery squad to deliver high-impact product initiatives aligned with business goals.
• Define clear objectives and outcomes, manage scopes, and prioritise features using data, insights, and customer feedback.
• Champion product planning and iterative delivery — owning the product lifecycle from concept to deployment.
• Collaborate with technical leads and stakeholders across the business to drive transformation success.
• Optimise product performance through continuous improvement, backed by data and customer insights.
• Develop your craft in product management while contributing to the evolution of a growing, digitally enabled finance company.
