We’re reinventing payments.
In less than four years, Dojo disrupted the market to become the largest and most loved acquirer in the UK. Our payments infrastructure, purpose-built for in-person commerce, is game changing.

Now, over 150,000 customers across four countries choose to transact billions with us every year.
But we’re just getting started.

Our people are the driving force behind our success. They are our greatest investment and our ultimate competitive advantage. We hire exceptional people and give them the autonomy, trust, and ownership to thrive. The results take care of themselves.

 

The Role…

Dojo is expanding beyond the UK. As our Lead Product Manager for International Expansion, you will own the product strategy, discovery, and go-to-market execution for launching Dojo’s payments products in new international markets. This is a mission-critical, zero-to-one role at the heart of our next phase of growth. You will define where we go, how we go, and what it takes to win.

This is not a role for generalists or first-timers. You must bring deep experience in navigating regulatory complexity, localising financial products, and building from scratch under pressure. As part of our centralised product team, you will partner with Engineering, Design, Legal, Ops, and GTM leaders to ship compliant, scalable products into entirely new markets with pace and precision. You will be joining at a pivotal moment. Our UK product has strong momentum and a proven model. The focus now is scaling that success internationally. This role is central to that next chapter. We need someone who has done this before and is ready to lead again with clarity, speed, and conviction.

What You will do…

  • Own the product strategy and roadmap for international growth across both seeded and emerging markets
  • Collaborate closely with Country Managers to align product plans with local insights, regulatory conditions, and commercial strategy
  • Lead discovery to understand customer needs, compliance requirements, and operational constraints across geographies
  • Drive localisation and market adaptation without compromising on quality or long-term scalability
  • Act as the single point of accountability for international market performance from a product perspective
  • Prioritise trade-offs across countries, capabilities, and investment to maximise speed and impact
  • Influence platform and infrastructure teams to ensure market needs are reflected in core systems
  • Align executives and cross-functional leads around clear sequencing, plans, and outcomes

What You will bring…

  • 7 or more years of product management experience with at least two international product launches or market growth cycles
  • Proven success scaling products in regulated markets such as payments, fintech, or SaaS
  • Strong experience working across functions including Legal, Compliance, Risk, and Ops
  • Deep commercial and customer instincts, with an ability to balance local nuance with platform thinking
  • Credibility and presence to influence senior stakeholders and collaborate with Country Managers
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with clarity in ambiguity
  • A delivery mindset with high standards and a sharp focus on outcomes

Dojo home and away

We believe our best work happens when we collaborate in-person. These “together days” foster communication, drive innovation and spark our brightest ideas.

That's why we have an office-first culture. This means working from the office 4+ days per week.

With offices across Europe, we know a thing or two about staying dynamic. Need deep focus? Head to a quiet zone. Big ideas? Collaboration spaces have you covered. Just here for a catch-up? Our social hubs make it easy. Do work that counts, in spaces made for you.


Question: what’s curious, relentless, and customer obsessed?

If you’re keen to know the answer, you’re a third of the way to meeting our Dojo values.

If the following speak to you, let’s talk:

  • You’re curious. You have a real desire to learn and create.
  • You’re relentless. You keep going even when it’s easier not to. 
  • You’re customer-obsessed. You know how important customers are to what you do.
