Daniel Ricciardo’s Formula 1 car, a woolly mammoth skeleton, Lady Gaga’s jumpsuit and Usain Bolt’s running shoe are just a few of the special objects that have passed through our marketplace. /p pWe are a unique marketplace for buying and selling special objects.

Our mission is to become the world’s most popular destination for special objects. /p pAs a growing, diverse and sustainable global company, we are guided by three values: /p ul liTake ownership and drive impact /li liBe open to change and feedback /li liBe passionate about our mission and our customers /li /ul h3Your mission /h3 pEvery Product Manager at Catawiki owns a meaningful part of the customer experience. /p pIn Demand, your mandate is straightforward: help more people find objects they care about, become active buyers and keep returning to Catawiki. /p pDemand is not one feature or surface. It covers how buyers first understand Catawiki, how they browse and search, what we recommend, how confidently they participate in auctions and what brings them back. /p pYour job is to identify the greatest opportunities across that journey, decide what matters most and lead a cross functional team from insight to measurable customer and business impact. /p pThe solution is not prescribed. You may improve ranking and recommendations, remove barriers to a first purchase, create stronger reasons to return or develop new AI enabled experiences. What matters is that you solve an important customer problem, prove the impact and scale what works. /p pYou will own the strategy, outcomes and execution for a cross functional team, working closely with Engineering, Design, Data Science, Marketing and Commercial teams. /p h3What You Will Do /h3 ul liSet and communicate a clear product vision, strategy and roadmap for a meaningful part of the buyer journey /li liOwn measurable outcomes across discovery, engagement, conversion and retention /li liUse behavioural data, customer research and commercial insight to identify and prioritise the biggest opportunities /li liTurn ambiguous customer problems into clear hypotheses, prototypes and executable plans /li liLead initiatives from early discovery through experimentation, launch and scaling /li liDefine success metrics, analyse funnel and cohort performance and build a rigorous experimentation agenda /li liDesign, run and evaluate A/B tests, turning positive, negative and inconclusive results into clear decisions /li liWork with data scientists and machine learning engineers to improve recommendations, ranking and personalisation /li liPartner closely with design to create simple, coherent and distinctive customer experiences /li liUse AI and rapid prototyping to test ideas early, reduce development risk and accelerate learning /li liIdentify new AI enabled buyer experiences where the technology solves a meaningful customer problem /li liCreate clarity, momentum and accountability across teams, including when priorities or incentives differ /li liCommunicate strategy, performance, tradeoffs and recommendations clearly to senior and C level stakeholders /li /ul h3Who You Are /h3 pThree qualities matter most in this role. /p h3Outcome ownership /h3 pYou take responsibility for customer and business results, not only for delivering features. You stay with the problem, remove obstacles and change direction when the evidence demands it. /p h3Systems thinking /h3 pYou understand that onboarding, discovery, recommendations, auction dynamics, CRM, commercial priorities and marketplace health influence one another. You can make thoughtful tradeoffs across the full system. /p h3Experimental rigour /h3 pYou use data, research, prototypes and controlled experiments to make decisions. You learn from negative results and can distinguish meaningful progress from activity. /p h3You Will Also Bring /h3 ul liAt least five years of product management experience, preferably in consumer ecommerce, marketplaces or another digital product at scale /li liA record of owning an end to end customer journey or broad product area rather than only individual features /li liStrong product and design judgement, with a clear view of what makes an experience intuitive, useful and high quality /li liConfidence working with funnels, cohorts, experiments and commercial performance metrics /li liExtensive experience designing, running and analysing A/B tests /li liThe ability to turn uncertain opportunities into clear hypotheses, prototypes and plans /li liA practical understanding of recommendations, personalisation, search or machine learning /li liComfort using AI tools to prototype quickly and explore new customer experiences /li liThe ability to balance immediate commercial opportunities with longer term product and platform investments /li liClear communication and the ability to influence senior leaders without relying on formal authority /li liThe pace, resilience and judgement to maintain a high standard of execution in an ambiguous environment /li /ul h3Where you will be /h3 pThis role is based in Amsterdam.
