Travel.
It's one of life's simple pleasures.
But, ooof, planning it can feel like hard work.
For the last 20 years we've been on a mission to empower every traveller with innovative tools, insights and experiences that help people get to where they're going, so they can spend more time out exploring the world, and less time anxiously bouncing around 25 browser tabs and endless spreadsheets.
Our traveller-first approach drives everything we do and it's never been more important than it is today.
When we launched as a flight comparison site back in 2003, we changed the game by helping travellers feel smart, like they were in on a secret, that promise hasn't changed.
And today, while we're a world leader in travel, with millions of people using our products every single day we know there's so much more we can be doing.
Being part of Skyscanner means joining a team hell bent on building the world's most innovative, and helpful travel experiences possible.
We're hugely ambitious and believe we have the chance to genuinely challenge and disrupt the industry.
About The RoleWe're looking for a Senior Product Manager to join our Explore Experience Team, leading and developing our explore product for our travellers.
We are looking for someone who has delivered results—launching new B2C features, delivering data driven improvements, and challenging themselves and others to improve their skills.
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 not purely 'organizers', 'sellers' or 'explorers', though they are versed in all three dimensions.
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.
Key ResponsibilitiesWhat 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:
