Vice President, Financial Analysis

Carwow Group is driven by a passion for getting people into cars. But not just any car, the right car. That’s why we are building the go-to destination for car-changing. Designed to reach drivers everywhere with our trail-blazing portfolio of personality-rich automotive brands: Carwow, Auto Express, evo, Driving Electric, and Car Buyer.
What started as a simple reviews site is now one of the largest online car-changing destinations in Europe - over 10m customers have used Carwow to help them buy and sell cars since its inception. Last year we grew over 50% with nearly £3bn worth of cars bought on site, while £1.8bn of cars were listed for sale through our Sell My Car service.
In 2024 we went big and acquired Autovia, doubling our audience overnight. Together we now have one of the biggest YouTube channels in the world with over 1.2 million print copies of our magazines, and have an annual web content reach of over 350 million.
We have just raised $52m in funding led by global venture capital firm Bessemer Venture Partners (an early backer of LinkedIn and Shopify) to accelerate our growth plans
Where others see difficulty, it’s our responsibility to see possibility – building new experiences, launching new titles, and listening to drivers.
Being a part of Carwow Group means championing drivers and the automotive industry, acting as a disrupter, and never being afraid to fail (but learning fast when we do).
Our team of 600 employees across the UK, Germany, Spain, and Portugal are revolutionizing car-changing and we are fast expanding our mission across every single brand and country we operate in, so jump in
Are you ready to be at the forefront of changing how drivers sell their cars? Only 10% of cars are currently sold through platforms like ours even though our data shows that owners who sell this way achieve £1000 on average more for their vehicle.
We’re looking for a VP of Product to join our team and help us build a game-changing experience for sellers and buyers. As a VP of Product responsible for our Sell My Car, you will own our proposition - the very core of what we do - our offer to sellers and buyers across every aspect of our service.
Carwow only launched this new service in the UK in 2021 - for the first time customers looking to change their cars could list their existing cars on our site and dealers would bid for them ensuring they got the best possible price for their vehicles. Sell My Car is now our biggest revenue line globally even though we are still only operating it in the UK.
Selling your car online in this way, or buying stock directly from drivers in this way, is still a relatively new ‘thing’. We’re building our understanding daily of what will work for sellers and buyers and we’re adapting together, making changes to how we operate as our buyers also adapt their business models. It requires ruthless prioritization, rapid decision-making, and the confidence to move quickly with imperfect data. You’ll develop our Carwow and White Label value propositions in the UK and for our European markets working with teams across Sell My Car (commercial, sales, trading, operations) and across the wider business (marketing, B2B marketing, analytics, and Get Your Car) to that, and bringing it to life in a way that allows them to work towards the common goal of a seamless car selling and buying experience.
Leading a growing team of product managers and designers, you’ll directly oversee the work of multiple product teams (PMs, analysts, engineers, designers), supporting planning that aligns to business goals and delivers a high return on that investment. A key part of your role is telling the Sell My Car story across the wider organization generating high awareness across the C-team of the key opportunities and how you are pursuing them.
Create collaboratively with the executive and senior leadership across the SMC and wider Carwow organization an exciting product vision, value proposition, and strategy for the Sell My Car vertical that delivers strategic differentiation vs competitors.
Roadmap & planning: Develop and consistently maintain a clearly articulated and compelling roadmap that shows sequencing towards the vision and can be used for internal planning across teams, and communicated to buying partners to drive engagement and adoption. Work with all areas of the Sell My Car to detail and develop this roadmap.
Prioritisation & ROI: Align teams around the commercial impact of the outcome they are working towards and ensure that we are prioritizing effectively between strategic progress and near-term trading priorities. Create an environment that allows the team to get the best out of all the people in their squad by helping provide wider context, giving clarity on goals, supporting, and setting processes for the team to collaborate effectively. Fluent with data: Use data to generate actionable insights, to leverage those insights to achieve goals set for the product, and to connect those quantified goals to meaningful outcomes for the business.
Demonstrate a deep passion for exceptional experience design that goes beyond what is on a web page and delivers market-leading customer journeys across every touchpoint for our customers.
Identify and use a range of confidence-building methods to learn as fast as possible and ensure we build the right thing.

Ensure all people involved and the wider commercial team are aware of the vision, team strategy, initiatives, priorities, and progress.
Understand and articulate the technical architecture for long-term maintenance and ongoing development, set teams up with clear accountability to operate SaaS ensuring decisions taken through development and rollout support this.
Stakeholder management: Work across a wide range of stakeholders to get the right input, their ideas, and ensure that they have the right information to represent the product team into their areas/functions.
Build empathy with our customers (sellers and buyers) and leverage feedback in the form of interviews, conversations, usability tests, surveys, and other forms of research to understand how users and enterprise partners engage with the product, make better decisions, and drive meaningful outcomes for the business.
Drive continuous improvement monitoring the performance of your own and the engineering teams, identifying ways to improve the quality and pace of decision-making and output ensuring we get more from our investments.
Stay abreast of emerging trends, technologies, and best practices in operations management, financial management, and P&L optimization, and assess their potential impact on the business.
Be highly analytical and accustomed to using complex data to make decisions - when you’re presented with data, analysis should be a reflex.
Effective in distilling complex solutions into bite-sized pieces when speaking and writing.
Data informs but doesn’t drive your decision-making: you know when to use it and when to lean on instinct to move quickly.
Excel at managing stakeholders, whilst also being confident in voicing your own opinions and challenging others.
