Job description

Key responsibilities

  • North Star Narrative (2-page): Create a concise, banker-friendly narrative that articulates what the platform solves, why now, and the immediate value to bankers.
  • Messaging & Positioning: Define positioning pillars (e.g., Preparedness, Relationship Intelligence, Workflow Acceleration, Secure Offline Mobility) and translate them into clear messaging for IB leadership and banker audiences.
  • Persona-Based Storytelling: Tailor value propositions by persona:
    • Senior bankers: “Prepared in seconds, guided throughout the day”
    • Coverage: “Relationship clarity + sponsor signals”
    • Origination: “Faster pitch prep + deal context”
    • Juniors: “Execution acceleration + context library”
  • Awareness & Adoption Assets: Produce a package of adoption materials:
    • Executive briefing deck storyline (1–3 key slides)
    • Banker-facing one-pager(s)
    • Demo script and talk track
    • Internal comms templates (launch email, FAQ, quick start)
  • Video Narrative & Creative Direction: Partner with the Creative Lead/UX team to storyboard a short vision video that “brings the strategy to life” and shows the day-in-the-life experience (briefing → meeting prep → notes → follow-up).
  • Competitive & Market Intelligence: Synthesize competitor/peer insights into crisp differentiation (e.g., cross-line visibility, prestige client discipline, offline-first workflows, agentic AI). Keep this lightweight and actionable.
  • Launch Strategy: Define an internal activation plan with leadership sponsors (MD top-down push), pilot strategy, and success signals (“what makes bankers open the app daily”).
  • Cross-Functional Alignment: Ensure consistent story across Product, Design, Engineering, AI, and stakeholders—so prototype, deck, and roadmap all reinforce the same narrative.

Must-have skillsets

  • 7+ years in product marketing / marketing strategy / strategic communications for digital products (enterprise or highly regulated environments preferred).
  • Proven ability to distill complex tech into simple, compelling, outcome-driven messaging.
  • Experience creating executive narratives and materials for senior leadership audiences.
  • Strong understanding of user adoption levers (behavior change, value framing, internal comms, pilot rollouts).
  • Comfortable partnering with product/design/engineering to align story to real capabilities and timelines.
  • Excellent writing, storytelling, and presentation skills.

Nice-to-have

  • Financial services / Investment Banking familiarity (coverage model, client lifecycle, deal motions).
  • Experience launching mobile; desktop products and/or tools for client-facing roles.
  • Experience with AI product storytelling (briefing, summarization, signal generation) and responsible AI messaging.
