Job Description

Position Overview

The Product Portfolio Manager will support the Fulfillment & Archive Services (FAS) organization, one of the largest and most technically complex product groups within Consumer & Community Banking. This role is responsible for managing incoming dependency requests, gathering business requirements, coordinating with technical teams, facilitating estimates and prioritization discussions, and helping maintain product backlogs across a diverse portfolio of applications.

The ideal candidate combines portfolio management, project coordination, Agile delivery experience, and strong stakeholder management skills. While not a hands-on technical role, candidates with technical backgrounds tend to be more successful due to the complexity of the systems and discussions involved.

  • Facilitate requirement gathering sessions with business stakeholders.
  • Coordinate with technical product teams to obtain high-level estimates and timelines.

Stakeholder Management

  • Serve as the primary liaison between clients and technical teams.
  • Conduct initial discovery and meet-and-greet sessions with business partners.
  • Build strong relationships with stakeholders across Asset & Wealth Management, Commercial Banking, Corporate functions, HR, and other business units.
  • Support quarterly prioritization discussions and backlog planning.

Agile & Delivery Support

  • Operate within an Agile environment using Jira.
  • Support backlog management activities.
  • Collaborate with product owners, technology teams, and portfolio partners.
  • Help align capacity planning with incoming demand.

Communication & Coordination

  • Communicate priorities, dependencies, risks, and timelines.
  • Escalate issues when appropriate.
  • Support a fast-paced, high-volume environment with multiple competing priorities.
