The Opportunity
Flagstone is the UK's leading cash savings platform, helping businesses and individuals put their money to work across a marketplace of banks and savings products. We manage over £19bnin Assets under Administration and are growing fast.
Our SME Tribe is under 12 months old, sitting at £5bn in Assets under Administration, with a mandate to reach £15bn in under three years. The growth engine is still being built. The proposition is actively evolving.
This is a rare opportunity to be the primary commercial force behind one of the most significant growth ambitions in the business. You will not inherit a playbook — you will write one.
What You’ll Own
- Lead the SME Tribe across two squads focused on client acquisition and client activation, creating the conditions for high performance and scale
- Own the commercial strategy for SME client acquisition and activation — translating a significant growth ambition into squad-level priorities and measurable outcomes
- Define and own tribe OKRs, ensuring squad-level goals are clearly connected to Flagstone's broader growth targets and business strategy
- Act as the senior day-to-day commercial voice for the SME segment, bringing external market perspective and customer insight that drives proposition evolution
- Partner closely with the Group Product Manager to ensure commercial strategy and product thinking are tightly aligned
- Work in close partnership with the CGO and Exec team to ensure Tribe strategy is aligned to company-wide priorities and reported with transparency
Delivery & Performance
- Drive the Tribe towards high performance — building ways of working, clarity of mission, and a culture of accountability and pace
- Own the tribe roadmap across both squads, ensuring priorities are well-sequenced and dependencies are actively managed
- Lead tribe ceremonies and reporting cadences, maintaining a consistent and transparent picture of delivery health and commercial progress
- Manage cross-squad dependencies and resolve blockers that sit above squad level
- Work with functional leads across the business to ensure the tribe is appropriately resourced to deliver
People & Culture
- Provide operational leadership to Squad Leads within the tribe, building their capability and holding them accountable for squad execution
- Build a high-performance tribe culture — one that moves with pace, operates with discipline, and learns continuously
- Support the development of tribe members, identifying opportunities for growth and ensuring the right conditions for people to do their best work
Cross-Functional Leadership & Proposition Influence
- Partner closely with the Engagement Tribe to ensure the SME client experience extends beyond acquisition and activation — driving the retention, top-up, and AuA growth behaviours that compound the channel's long-term commercial performance.
- Act as the senior commercial sponsor for the SME proposition across Flagstone, ensuring that platform investment and propositional development across tribes reflects the needs and priorities of the SME customer.
- Work in close partnership with Marketing to shape SME brand and performance strategy — ensuring campaigns, messaging, and channel investment are grounded in commercial priorities and aligned to tribe OKRs.
- Partner with Finance on growth planning, budgeting, and reforecasting — maintaining a clear and current picture of SME commercial performance and ensuring investment decisions are underpinned by robust financial modelling.
- Collaborate with Data to develop the insight capability that drives smarter acquisition, activation, and retention decisions — ensuring the tribe operates with a clear, evidence-based view of customer behaviour and funnel performance.
- Represent the SME channel's commercial interests in cross-functional forums, advocating for SME priorities and ensuring they are visible and appropriately resourced alongside competing business priorities.
