🚀 Be part of a movement to change the way Europe pays

In today’s digital world, payments often still feel outdated: random delays and confusing rules make it harder than it should be to pay and get paid. The European Payments Initiative (EPI) is here to change all that, forever.

With Wero, our digital wallet, we make sending and receiving money simple, seamless and secure across France, Belgium and Germany, with more countries and omnichannel solutions coming soon. Supported by 16 major banks and the two largest European acquirers, EPI is building a new, proudly European payment system: easy, instant and transparent, all for the greater good.


🔎 What's in it for you

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Senior Product Manager to lead a crucial new project from scratch for EPI. This role requires a strategic thinker with a strong background in product management, particularly within the fintech or payments industry. You will be responsible for setting and communicating a compelling product vision, managing the strategic roadmap, and ensuring alignment with company objectives.

At EPI, we embrace a remote-first culture, enabling our teams to work remotely from the country they are based in, with in-person meetings at least once a quarter to foster collaboration and connection.
