Key Responsibilities
- Own the RateHawk.com Selections product strategy, vision, and roadmap, and grow it from a young stream into a mature, measurable business unit.
- Run the stream as a fast test-and-learn engine: ship experiments, iterate quickly, and turn each result into the next bet. Optimise for speed of learning, not size of upfront plan.
- Own a continuous pipeline of product opportunities that drive measurable revenue growth, sized from funnel data, content gaps, and user friction.
- Lead the strategic analysis behind those bets: market and competitor shifts, agent and traveller behaviour, and quantitative plus qualitative research (interviews, usability tests, behavioural analysis) to find root causes and high-leverage problems.
- Build alignment across Product, Engineering, Commercial, and Operations: sharpen priorities, back decisions with data, and keep everyone moving toward shared goals.
- Co-own delivery: define clear scope and acceptance criteria, and keep product, engineering, ML, and analytics aligned through to shipped impact.
Requirements
- 3+ years in Product Management, ideally in travel, marketplace, or content-heavy products.
- Growth mindset with a track record of scaling a product or stream through experimentation: hypotheses, A/B tests, fast iteration, and measurable outcomes.
- Strong strategic and analytical skills: metric design, SQL, funnel and cohort analysis, and the judgement to turn data into prioritised bets.
- Bias to action: ships small, learns fast, and improves, rather than waiting for perfect.
- Enough technical fluency to work with data pipelines, content systems, or ML-driven products, find quick wins, and partner closely with engineering.
- Strong communication and cross-functional influence; builds trust with engineering, commercial, and operations partners.
Benefits
- Flexible schedules and opportunity to work remotely.
- Ambitious and supportive team who love what they do, appreciate each other, and grow together.
- Internal programs for adaptation and training, development of soft skills, and leadership abilities.
- Partial compensation for participating in external training and conferences.
- Corporate English school: Group and individual lessons, speaking clubs with colleagues from all over the world.
- Corporate prices on hotels and travel services.
- MyTime Day Off - an extra non-working day without loss of compensation.
