About WeTravel
Travel gives people new experiences and brings them together, sometimes in life-changing ways. That’s especially the case for group travel and multi-day travel where the trip participants (travellers) get to really immerse themselves. Passionate travel organizers make this magic happen and WeTravel is here to support those travel companies. We help them publish their trip offerings, generate leads and follow through to convert them to bookings, process payments around the world, pay suppliers/vendors, and digitize their operations. This helps multi-day travel organizers get more bookings, save time, and save money.
About the role
This role is all about helping travel organizers bring their trips to life on WeTravel, from creating converting trip pages to managing their inventory and suppliers. This impactful domain includes:
1/ Trip Creation & Publishing:
- Dynamic Trip Builder: Develop intuitive tools for organizers to create their trip offerings on WeTravel.
- Beautiful, Converting Pages: Help organizers showcase their trips with professional looking, high-converting pages that capture travelers’ imaginations.
- Customizable Packages & Options: Enable organizers to build flexible trip packages with personalized options.
2/ Inventory and Cost Management:
- Inventory Management: Take our inventory management tools to the next level by allowing organizers to manage a wider range of resources.
- Package Optimization: Help organizers maximize bookings while preventing overbooking.
- Cost Management: Provide organizers with tools to track and manage their cost, ensuring clear visibility into the P&L of each trip.
3/ Supplier management:
- Peer-to-Peer Payment Network: Enhance our peer-to-peer payment solution for direct supplier invoicing.
- Supplier Network: Develop our Supplier hub for connecting travel organizers with suppliers such as Destination Management Companies (DMCs), local service providers, and tour operators.
- Integrated Workflows: Embed supplier sourcing directly into the trip creation making it simple for organizers to add suppliers to their packages and itineraries.
We are looking for an experienced, generalist senior product manager (PM) to lead this broad domain end-to-end. You will deeply study travel organizers’ needs, prioritize them, come up with solutions (or hypothesis to test), drive all necessary functions to build and launch the solutions, drive adoption, and ultimately grow our revenue (and profit). In this high-impact and high-visibility role, you will report to our Lead Product Manager and work directly with the executive team on a weekly basis.
If you’ve ever wanted to empower businesses with innovative tech and have fun in a well-funded rocketship in the heart of Amsterdam, this is it. If you want an inclusive company with a 4.8 star Glassdoor rating where the CEO empties the dishwasher and best ideas win, this is it. Join us – let’s make an amazing impact together!
