Our mission

Banking belongs in business software

Many software companies already serve small businesses incredibly well: helping them send invoices, run payroll, manage inventory, and more. They’re on a mission to become the central hub for managing every aspect of business life.

But when it comes to financial workflows, there’s still a gap. Too many critical tasks like managing cash flow, tracking payments, or reconciling accounts happen outside the software, across spreadsheets, email threads, banking portals.

It’s a missed opportunity. Business software shouldn’t just record financial activity — it should run it.

Job description

The Marketing and Product teams at Swan bring our product to life for prospects and partners. In this role, you will work closely with Marketing, Product, Sales, and Account Management to define how we go to market and how we position our products with prospects and partners.

Swan is growing quickly, and this role offers the opportunity to build and scale our product marketing engine. You will create clear and engaging ways to communicate our product, translate complex information into compelling messages, and turn customer and market insights into impact.

✨ Your mission

As Product Marketing Manager, you will make Swan’s products easier to understand, easier to position, and easier to bring to market.

You will connect customer needs, market context, and product capabilities to create clear messaging and compelling product narratives. Working across Product, Marketing, Sales, and Account Management, you will help Swan communicate its value to prospects, partners, and customers, while giving internal teams the content and tools they need to engage effectively.

✨ Main tasks

• Build a strong understanding of Swan’s customer verticals, target audiences, business needs, and competitive environment.

• Define clear, differentiated messaging and positioning for Swan’s products and capabilities.

• Partner with Product and Marketing to prepare and execute go-to-market plans for new products, features, and releases.

• Translate complex product and technical concepts into simple, relevant, and engaging stories.

• Develop sales collateral and enablement materials for Sales and Account Management teams.

• Support internal teams with the information and tools they need to present Swan’s products clearly and consistently.

• Use customer feedback, market developments, and industry trends to improve our messaging and identify new opportunities.

• Monitor the impact of product marketing initiatives and use insights to improve future launches and campaigns.

✨ Curious about your future team?

Reporting to Claire, Product Lead Manager, you will join the Marketing team at an important stage in its development.

Today, the team is made up of four expertises (Demand Generation, Partner Marketing, Content & Comms and Product Marketing) and will double in size over the next month!

You will work alongside a small group of smart, committed, and ambitious people who are building the foundations of a marketing organisation that will scale quickly in the coming years.

You will also be a key partner and advisor to the Sales and Account Management teams. With your ability to describe products in simple, clear, and engaging ways, you will have a strong understanding of upcoming features and releases and bring them to life for our partners.

Preferred experience

✨ You’re a great match if:

• You have 4+ years of experience in Product Marketing, ideally within the FinTech, Payments, or Banking Infrastructure space.

• You have a strong expertise in Product Positioning, with the ability to turn complex technical concepts - from APIs to financial infrastructure - into clear, compelling value propositions for both business and technical audiences.

• You have a strong track record in GTM Execution, leading cross-functional product launches end-to-end from strategy to measuring impact.

• You act as a true partner throughout the entire sales cycle, equipping Sales and Pre-Sales teams with the narratives, pitch decks, and collaterals they need to position the product and close deals.

• You are data & insight-driven, comfortable using market trends, competitor intel, and sales feedback to refine messaging and prioritize projects.

• You have full professional proficiency in English (C1/C2).

• Our ideal teammate: Empathetic. Skilled. Frank. We love to challenge each other, and we leave our egos at the door.
