Product Manager - CFD Trading

Job Description

Who are we

IG Group is a global leader in online trading, serving over 400,000 active clients worldwide. Our APAC division manages a £250M+ business across Australia, Singapore, UAE, and Japan, offering CFDs, share dealing, and cryptocurrency trading through regulated platforms.

The Opportunity

IG Markets is our new mobile-first multi-product trading platform designed for active investors in Singapore. We're seeking an experienced Product Manager to lead the launch and growth of leveraged CFD trading on this platform—a strategic priority for our APAC expansion.

This is a high-impact role requiring someone who can navigate complex regulatory frameworks (including MAS), drive delivery across distributed teams, and launch sophisticated trading products in compressed timelines. You'll be instrumental in bringing institutional-grade CFD capabilities to a modern, intuitive mobile experience.

Why Join IG Group APAC

  • Strategic Impact: Lead a high-priority product launch that's central to our APAC growth strategy
  • Scale & Scope: Work on products serving 40,000+ monthly active users managing significant capital
  • Innovation Freedom: Join a team building modern trading experiences unconstrained by legacy systems
  • Global Exposure: Collaborate with teams across 6+ countries on internationally significant products
  • Career Growth: Opportunity to expand into broader APAC responsibilities as the platform scales
  • Learning Environment: Work alongside experienced product leaders in a fast-growing division

Location & Logistics

  • Based in Singapore with hybrid working arrangements
  • Reports directly to the Product Director, APAC & Middle East
  • Regular collaboration with teams across APAC, Middle East, UK, and India
  • Some flexibility for remote work within Singapore; occasional travel to regional offices

What you will do

As Product Manager for CFD Trading, you'll own the end-to-end product lifecycle—from regulatory compliance and technical architecture to user experience and go-to-market execution.

  • Own and drive the CFD product launch for IG Markets, balancing regulatory requirements with user experience excellence
  • Balance between core product build that is standard across markets, vs customisation for specific markets
  • Define and prioritize features based on regulatory constraints, technical feasibility, user needs, and business objectives
  • Establish success metrics and KPIs; continuously monitor and optimize product performance post-launch
  • Coordinate delivery across globally distributed teams spanning Singapore, Australia, Dubai, UK, India, and South Africa
  • Work with Engineering teams to define technical specifications, system architecture, and integration requirements
  • Participate in technical design reviews and provide product context for architectural decisions
  • Champion the user experience; ensure CFD trading is accessible, intuitive, and mobile-optimized
  • Conduct user research and testing to validate assumptions and iterate on designs

What you will need

  • 5+ years in product management, with at least 2 years hands-on experience on mobile app
  • Proven track record launching full-stack products from concept to market
  • Strong technical fluency—able to discuss APIs, system architecture, and technical trade-offs with engineering teams
  • Cross-functional leadership across engineering, design, compliance, and business stakeholders
  • Agile delivery experience with demonstrated ability to ship products in fast-paced environments
  • Experience with regulated products, particularly in trading, investments, or financial instruments is a plus

Highly Valued Experience

  • Direct experience with CFDs, derivatives, or leveraged trading products
  • Knowledge of MAS regulatory requirements or other financial regulatory frameworks (ASIC, FCA, JFSA)
  • Experience launching mobile-first financial applications or trading platforms
  • Background working in multi-jurisdictional or multi-market environments
  • Previous roles managing distributed or global teams
  • Technical background in computer science, engineering, or related field

The Perks

Your growth fuels our success! Thrive with tailored development programs, mentoring opportunities with leaders, and clear career progression. Expand your network through committees, sports and social clubs. Enjoy extra time off for volunteering and community work.

  • Competitive salary and benefits package
  • Flexible work
  • High-visibility role with direct exposure to senior leadership
  • Opportunity to shape a first-of-its-kind new product launch across multiple markets
  • Dynamic, collaborative culture working with talented professionals across the globe
