JOB DESCRIPTION
Ignite your passion for product innovation by leading customer-centric development, inspiring solutions, and shaping the future with your strategic vision and influence.
As a Product Director in Sanctions & Client List Screening, you lead innovation through the development of products and features that delight customers. As a leader on the team, you leverage your advanced capabilities to challenge traditional approaches, remove barriers to success, and foster a culture of continuous innovation that helps inspire cross-functional teams create groundbreaking solutions that address customer needs.
As an Executive Director, you will own and execute the global product strategy for firmwide sanctions screening - aligned to Payments but spanning enterprise screening requirements across multiple asset types and business lines. You will lead a team accountable for defining capabilities, translating customer and stakeholder needs into prioritized roadmaps, and delivering scalable, compliant screening services through close partnership with Technology, Operations, Compliance, Risk, Legal, and the Lines of Business.
This role has oversight responsibility for screening operations performance and outcomes (e.g., service levels, quality, controls, resiliency) while not directly owning day-to-day operations. You will set direction and standards, drive governance and continuous improvement, and ensure the end-to-end screening ecosystem (data, platforms, rules/models, case management, and operating model) is effective, auditable, and fit for purpose.
The role requires strong executive communication, attention to detail, and the ability to operate in a complex, regulated environment - balancing risk coverage, client experience, operational efficiency, and technology delivery.

* Establish and run product governance to maintain design principles, standards, and decision frameworks (e.g., change management, data requirements, tuning/optimization approach, platform modernization priorities).
* Partner with Compliance, Risk, Legal, Model Risk/Validation (as applicable), and Audit stakeholders to ensure capabilities are defensible, well-documented, and exam-ready.
* Provide senior oversight of screening operations outcomes - working with operations leadership on capacity planning, SLA performance, quality assurance, escalation protocols, and continuous improvement.
* Define and monitor key KPIs/KRIs (e.g., alert volumes, aging/backlogs, quality results, false positive reduction, tuning outcomes, platform stability) and ensure performance is understood and acted upon.
* Drive end-to-end issue management and remediation for defects, data quality gaps, or process breakdowns, ensuring sustainable fixes across technology and operations.
* Recruit, coach, and retain a diverse team of product leaders and contributors accountable for requirements, user journeys, and end-to-end lifecycle delivery.
* Translate customer and internal stakeholder needs into clear business requirements, epics, and acceptance criteria; support technology execution from discovery through launch and iteration.
* Lead go-to-market/enablement activities for new capabilities (internal and external as relevant), including readiness materials, training, and stakeholder education.
