Your new employer: The international marketplace with massive personal impact
This company was founded nearly 20 years ago with the focus on analyzing, understanding and being able to solve large-scale and complex challenges in the market. This instead of many new companies/propositions inventing a solution for a problem that has yet to be found.
Combined with this approach, they centered themselves on building the company up with focus on maintaining a stable foundation. No growing for the sake of growing, or faster than the team can handle. True focus on delivering the best for the market, by having the right people in the right places.
Having said this, despite their careful and controlled growth, they have expanded their services into 23 different countries with 3 different marketplaces and a team of over 70 people with over 19 nationalities. All this in less than 20 years, so suffice to say they are doing well.
Each of their respective marketplaces focus themselves on alleviating all the stress, hassle and downright chaos during some of the most treasured and impactful moments of our lives. All done through a Product-led growth mindset.
They make all this work by safeguarding a “People first” environment. They understand the importance of facilitating an environment that both enables and empowers their people, ensuring happiness and commitment for the long term.

Your new job: Senior Product Owner: Marketplace | End-to-end | Utrecht
As Senior Product Owner: Marketplace, you will be responsible for one of their 3 Marketplaces. In this position you will have end-to-end responsibility. Together with the Head of Product you will co-create the strategy and you will draw up yearly and quarterly roadmaps and set the OKR’s and KPI’s.
What’s unique about this position is that each Product Owner works with a “squad system”. Meaning not only do you have access to a team of developers, but you get to assemble your own “squad” of specialists outside of development to aid you in the development process. Think analysts, Sales and Service reps, designers and more.
The focus for the development is not so much on maximizing revenue, but maximizing user satisfaction. Not only do they want to put their customers front and center, but they also want to mitigate Churn on their platforms as much as possible.
In order to succeed it is of particular importance to have experience in the “discovery” phase of the development cycle. After all, how can you truly service your base if you don’t understand what they value?
All this will be done in an environment with multiple co-Product Owners, IT/Tech leads, Marketing- , Sales- and Service specialists to help get the job done.
If this sounds like the role and environment that will get you out of bed with a smile on Monday morning, then this is your chance!
