RESPONSIBILITIES:
Kforce has a client that is seeking a Compliance Senior Product Owner. This is initially a three-month contract for remote candidates, with potential contract-to-hire consideration for candidates located near Des Moines, Fairfield, or Phoenix.
Summary:
In this role, you will lead product strategy and execution for critical financial operations, including advisor commissions, fee billing, books and records, journal entries, supervisory functions, ERP systems, and compliance. The primary objective is to ensure advisors are paid accurately and on time while supporting the modernization of commission and billing platforms.
The Senior Product Owner will partner with Business Leaders, Product Management, Design, Engineering, Risk, and Compliance to identify stakeholder needs, lead product discovery, and translate business challenges into strategic solutions. Responsibilities include defining product vision and roadmaps, prioritizing the backlog, establishing KPIs and product scorecards, and driving measurable business and operational outcomes.
This person must be a proactive product leader who generates ideas, challenges assumptions, and connects product decisions to business value. The ideal candidate will be business-focused rather than architecture-focused and capable of building trusted relationships across technical and nontechnical teams.
REQUIREMENTS:
* Bachelor's degree or equivalent combination of education and relevant experience
* 5+ years of product management, product ownership, or closely related experience
* Financial services experience is required; Wealth management, broker-dealer, or registered investment adviser experience is strongly preferred
* Experience with commissions, fee billing, advisor payments, books and records, journal entries, ERP platforms, or financial operations systems
* Experience operating in a regulated environment and translating compliance requirements into product capabilities and controls
* Demonstrated success owning product strategy, roadmaps, backlogs, discovery, delivery, adoption, and measurable outcomes
* Strong product discovery skills and experience translating stakeholder needs into strategic solutions
* Strong executive communication and ability to explain strategy, priorities, trade-offs, and outcomes in clear business language
* Ability to define and use KPIs, OKRs, and product scorecards to measure business value and success
* Ability to influence without authority and build relationships across business, technology, operations, risk, and compliance teams
* Azure DevOps and compliance or financial systems experience preferred; Workday experience is not required
