Senior Product Manager – Monetization & Retention At trivago, our product organization is focused on outcomes that drive real user value and meaningful business impact.

We’re looking for a Senior Product Manager to own strategy and execution for key monetization levers – spanning loyalty mechanics, pricing optimisation, deal value and retention across core user journeys. This role has genuine commercial ownership and the autonomy to shape direction across a multi‑quarter roadmap.

Build and defend business cases for new initiatives – model trade‑offs, pressure‑test assumptions with real data, and influence stakeholders on investment priorities and expected returns.

Lead structured discovery end‑to‑end – identify and validate high‑impact opportunities, quantify expected impact (uplift ranges, confidence levels, cost of delay) and connect them to a clear KPI framework.

Own the full experimentation agenda – hypothesis framing, test design, sequencing and guardrails – driving fast learning while protecting user trust and making decisions from results.

Lead Analytics, Data Science, UX, Research and Engineering from insight to shipped product – maintaining clarity on commercial and user outcomes throughout, and act as an integrator across Finance, Marketing/CRM, Supply and Legal where relevant.

Mentor less experienced product managers and actively contribute to product management processes and practices across the company.

What you’ll need to thrive: 6–12+ years of product management experience with a proven track record of shipping and scaling complex, data‑driven initiatives – ideally spanning monetisation, growth, pricing or retention in a consumer product.

Strong commercial and analytical rigor – comfortable with experimentation results, cohort analysis and opportunity sizing, and able to make principled decisions when metrics trade‑off against each other.

Excellent communication and stakeholder management – influence across functions and levels, articulate trade‑offs crisply, and drive alignment, including with senior leadership. High bar for UX – know that monetisation works best when value is clear and the experience feels seamless.

A genuine learning mindset – approach challenges with curiosity, seek feedback and continuously look for ways to develop and grow. A performance mindset – set ambitious goals, show determination and resilience to follow through and achieve them.

An open and curious mindset toward AI tools and automation – actively explore how AI can enhance your work and are excited to grow alongside evolving technologies. You also gain free access to the Heycare platform for personalised nanny assistance and an on‑campus kids’ room.

As you grow, so do we: personalised coaching through Nilo, workshops, educational meetups, conferences, free online learning courses and access to a fully‑equipped campus library. Moving to join us?
