Product Owner (Control Box and TRAC)

Control Now is a London-based RegTech firm focused on solving one of regulation's most persistent challenges: transaction reporting that is accurate, reliable, automated, cost-efficient, and built to adapt as the rules evolve. Since 2017, we've helped banks, brokers, asset managers, and hedge funds replace fragmented manual processes with reporting infrastructure they can trust, reducing both operational risk and cost.

Our platform, Control Box, supports a diverse, high-quality client base across multiple regulatory jurisdictions. It transforms reporting from a reactive compliance burden into a controlled, auditable operational capability. Designed around automation, transparency, data integrity, and traceability, the platform gives firms clear visibility into what is being reported, why, and how, helping compliance become an embedded business process rather than a latent source of regulatory risk.

Behind the technology is a team with more than two decades of hands-on experience in regulatory reporting and financial markets infrastructure. We've worked directly with the operational, technical, and regulatory challenges our clients face, and that practical experience informs every aspect of the business, from product architecture and regulatory logic through to implementation and client support.

Role Description

Control Now (CN) are looking for a Product Owner to manage the analysis, specification and delivery of CN’s no code platform Control Box and TRAC.

Control Box – is a powerful data transformation platform which transforms client trade data into regulatory reports. It operates from an easy-to-use interface designed for intricate workflows and eliminates the need for development and testing teams to manage change to regulatory reporting solutions.

TRAC is the backend engine that processes data using transformation logic configured within Control Box. It includes a desktop tool that can be executed locally, enabling secure data processing without the need to share data outside the server environment. Prior to the introduction of Control Box, many Control Now solutions were developed directly on TRAC. As a result, several legacy solutions continue to operate exclusively on the TRAC platform.
