Senior Product Manager

You will play a key part in defining and executing a product vision that ensures Zenjob's marketplace dynamics are well balanced, by optimizing our demand forecast, making sure jobs and Zenjobbers are matched optimally, and engaging students in working a high number of shifts. You'll work project-based: form a team around a problem, own it end-to-end until it delivers on the expected need.

What you'll do

• Bring our business goals to reality. Understand our financial goals, our users' problems and transform them into solutions that drive our revenue up.
• Talk to users directly. Zenjobbers, clients, and our own internal teams. Most of the good opportunities come out of these conversations, not out of a backlog.
• Do your own data work. You don't wait until a data analyst gives you the insights, you dive into it and derive them yourself.
• Turn ambiguity into a defensible plan. Take a problem nobody agrees on yet, and define what we're solving, what we're explicitly not solving, and in what order.
• Design and run tests. Form a hypothesis, define what would falsify it, ship the smallest thing that gives you a real answer, and be honest about the result.
• Drive product development from concept to launch. Pull together Engineering, Design, Ops and Commercial around a problem and keep them moving through hypothesis, building, rollout and post-launch decision making.
• Own the outcome, not the output. Each project has a number attached. You define what success looks like up front, and you're the one who says whether it was hit.

What you'll need

• 6+ years in product, with meaningful time on products where the software coordinates real-world processes - staffing, logistics, fintech ops, healthcare, or similar, with substantial business impact and experience in marketplace dynamics and allocation problems.
• You've shipped something complex end-to-end and can talk credibly about what broke, not just what launched.
• Analytically strong - comfortable getting to an answer yourself rather than commissioning one, and having a fluent conversation with data scientists.
• You've moved teams you don't manage. Cross-functional influence without formal authority is most of this job.
• Write and speak clearly. This is the strongest single signal we look for, because in a cross-team role, clear communication is most of how work actually moves.
• AI is already part of how you work, and you can say specifically where it helps and where it doesn't, and you are already able to ship small features with little to no help from Engineers.
• English fluency. German is a big plus.

What they offer

• Real ownership of problems that visibly move the business - not a slice of someone else's roadmap.
• 28 days of paid vacation (increased by 1 day for every 2 calendar years of service, up to a maximum of 30 days), 1 day of special leave for community service, 5 days of paid educational leave.
• Hybrid working model: work remotely up to 2 days per week (1 day during first 6 months).
• Annual training budget of EUR 750, mentoring opportunities, and constant career development conversations.
• EUR 30 Urban Sports Club grant and EUR 40 monthly NAVIT credit for sustainable mobility.
• Quarterly team events, winter and summer parties, and budget for employee birthdays and anniversaries.
