Hi, I’m Parth

I’m a design-led Product Leader and I specialise in leading multidisciplinary teams to bring crazy ideas to life.

My interests span across personal finance, technology, social change and wellness.

Here’s a sampling of these interests in action:

  • I studied and tutored social entrepreneurship at university alongside political science.

  • I was a fitness and yoga instructor prior to my PM career.

  • I’m deep into personal finance and fintech. So deep that I led a team to build a mobile app in the space. Now it’s used by thousands of people and we’re making it better everyday.

  • I serve on the board of a not-for-profit social enterprise called Young Change Agents.

About

Like you, I want to live in a fairer, more equal world. This drive has led me to work at the intersection of design, technology and social impact.

Right now, I'm a Group Product Manager for Wallet at Finder. At Finder, we're on a journey to help people make better, more informed financial decisions in order to grow their wealth. I lead the team that brought the Finder App to the world, and we're making it better every day. Check it out here.

Previously, I worked at a startup that helped people in large organisations apply best practice design thinking and lean startup methods.

Before I jumped ship and got into startups and Product, I used to be a personal trainer and teach yoga 🧘🏽‍♂️

I believe that the future belongs to people and organisations with a positive purpose – to leave the world better than they found it. At the moment, I'm putting this belief into practice by working on social impact projects to help make zebras* mainstream - I currently serve on the board of Young Change Agents, helping young people see problems as opportunities through practical social entrepreneurship.

* Zebra organisations both make money and improve society. They won’t sacrifice one for the other. They recognise that we live in a time of multi-dimensional challenges that narrow approaches cannot solve. Instead, they take a systems view and often cross sectoral, disciplinary and cultural boundaries in their solutions. Also known as social enterprises, for-purpose companies, social businesses, and so on.

Work

Orchestrating products and experiences that solve big problems for real people brings me joy.

From bringing Australia’s largest comparison site to mobile, to leading UX research at ethical fashion-tech startup Good On You (a zebra), I've worked with companies shaping the future my entire career. A typical week for me involves:

  • a few hours of talking to people we're building to serve

  • dreaming up new solutions to real user problems with my crew

  • working through technical challenges with my engineering team

  • communicating post release metrics for recently shipped software

  • visioning what's next and why
