We are looking for an experienced product manager to help us build the best platform for personalized travel experiences. While scaling Withlocals the role of product has become more and more important. The product department works across three multi-disciplinary teams: Platform (everything we do for our local guides), Growth (scaling all areas of the business) and Customer Lifetime Value. You will be leading product within the Growth team and at the same time work closely together with your product colleagues in the other teams.

In your role you will be responsible for scaling in three different areas. First is to accelerate our roll-out to cover new cities, second is to continue our growth in existing cities and the third one is to create more supply (our hosts) driven by customer demand. This will be a combination of platform, tools and processes and requires a thorough understanding of building, managing and editing products, as well as the skills to lead a team of very smart people.

If this sounds good to you, why not say hello so we can discuss this in more detail?

What you will be doing

  • You will own the product roadmap and product plans within the Growth team
  • You will work together with engineers, destination managers and designers to drive execution against our plan
  • You will take care of clear communication, identification of risks and anticipation of staffing needs
  • You will help to find ways to make our development process more efficient
  • You are open to change and can provide us with original ideas to scale in new and smarter ways

Why you will love this job

  • You will work in a bustling and international working environment (English is the default language within the office)
  • We support sustainable tourism and cultural connections made possible through new technologies
  • You can use your product skills to create the best travel platform for tours and activities
  • You will work with a passionate, smart and motivated team who will accelerate your personal development
  • You will be part of a learning culture
  • Competitive compensation package, including MacBook

We’re looking for:

  • Experience building consumer-oriented platforms. You can take a big idea and turn it into a roadmap with limited mentorship
  • A passion for travel is important to understand our customers, our hosts and shape the direction of the Withlocals platform
  • People skills that will help you handle competing interests and find creative solutions
  • Leadership skills to influence people to get things done across all disciplines. People love to work with you.
  • Strong communication skills (English is our default language)
