High Performance at Neo

The Role


Neo Financial is looking for a full-time Head of Product, Banking, to join our team in Calgary, AB OR Toronto, ON. In this role, you'll own the end-to-end product strategy, vision, and execution for Neo’s banking products, with a focus on driving customer banking experience, deposit balance growth, and account engagement, while optimizing adjusted Net Interest Margin (NIM). You will lead a high-performing product team and will operate at both strategic and executional levels to shape experiences that resonate with customers and deliver measurable business results.


What you'll be doing:

  • Define a clear, strategic vision for the Banking product vertical aligned with company goals and metrics.
  • Lead the full product lifecycle: from structured discovery and validation through to scoping and agile execution.
  • Manage and grow a team of experienced product managers and product leaders (e.g., GPMs, Lead PMs), fostering accountability, clarity, and high performance.
  • Build deep expertise across the banking product stack—spanning customer experience, technology, operations, and compliance.
  • Use data, user research, and market signals to make strategic decisions, validate assumptions, and uncover opportunities.
  • Coordinate closely with cross-functional teams (engineering, design, growth, operations, and external banking partners) to deliver scalable, intuitive solutions.
  • Champion velocity, impact, and clarity, setting the standard for decision-making and product thinking within the vertical.

Who we are looking for:

  • 10+ years of experience in product management, including 5+ years building and scaling digital banking or financial services products.
  • 5+ years of experience leading senior product talent and developing product leaders within a high-performance environment.
  • A track record of delivering measurable customer and business impact in B2C banking contexts, ideally with direct experience growing balance sheets and optimizing NIM.
  • Deep familiarity with structured product development frameworks (discovery, validation, scoping) and a bias toward testing assumptions early.
  • Strategic mindset with high operational acumen—you can anticipate problems, prioritize what matters, and align cross-functional teams.
  • Experience working with regulated banking partners and translating complex requirements into elegant product experiences.


Working at Neo:

Joining Neo means betting on yourself and discovering your full potential. As individuals and as a team, we continually challenge ourselves and each other to do our best work. We’re making change happen at a rapid pace — providing endless opportunities to sharpen your skills, expand your knowledge, and find new solutions to complex problems. That means rapid career progression and constant learning opportunities. 


The people who thrive at Neo are resourceful, relentless, and want to win. We hold ourselves to high standards, because we’re on a mission that matters — to transform financial services for the better. If that’s what you’re looking for, read on.


We trust, respect, and show up for each other. That means truthful conversations, frequent feedback, and working with people who push you to be your best. We’re evolving quickly as an organization, we work together in person, and the pace of progress isn’t for everyone. That’s why we’re looking for change-makers who love a challenge — who would rather blaze a trail through uncertainty than travel a well-paved road.


Our team members earn meaningful equity in the company through stock options — so Neo’s growth benefits everyone who helps make it happen. That also means taking on more responsibility than you may have had at your last job. We don’t get hung up on job titles or hierarchy — we’re focused on doing what it takes to accomplish our mission.
