To be the world's number one travel ally. (Ambitious? Yes, but, hey, that's what got us here). Now, we’re on the lookout for a Principal Product Manager, Advertising, to help us bring that vision to even more travellers. About the role (Hybrid) We’re looking for a Principal Product Manager to join our Advertising Team, leading and developing our advertising traveller experience products. We are looking for someone who has delivered results—launching new customer-facing features, delivering performance improvements, and challenging themselves and others to think about the whole end-to-end traveller experience. Our Product Managers are builders who love to create things and change the world through technology. They are skilled at the Why, the How and the What of making and iterating products to find market fit. They support each other and help each other grow. They are multi-facetted entrepreneurs who know how to generate insights, set direction, and get things done in tech & business. Naturally data-driven, they nevertheless cut through complexity to identify high impact opportunities and simple solutions. They act decisively on these insights and collaborate with colleagues in ways which inspire and motivate. Above all, they are in touch with the end user, working constantly to understand their pain-points and exceed their expectations. What you’ll be doing What we value most is autonomy, nimbleness, and delivery of an integrated experience for our travellers. So as a team, we are organised cross-functionally so that we can keep focus on delivering our highest priority business goals. Our squads are empowered to make decisions and figure out for themselves how to tackle our biggest and most complex challenges. Our Product Managers will typically work with one or more squads to deliver a goal, then pick up other goals as the work progresses and priorities shift. Their squad ships daily, tests constantly, and tries to deliver real traveller value every week. This means we look for PMs who thrive on change and are constantly taking on new challenges. Whatever the challenge, our PMs: Find the ‘why’ behind the traveller problem. Solve for the whole picture – seeing their work through the traveller’s eyes, creating solutions for the entire experience, and thinking beyond its parts. Work incredibly hard to keep things incredibly simple. Use Lean approaches to break down big ideas into valuable pieces to deliver at fast pace. Fail fast and fail often – until they don’t.
