Job Description

WHAT IS OUR VISION AT TALENT & CULTURE?

We aren't here to support talabat's strategy; we are here to drive it. We treat talent architecture as a product, designed with the same speed, personalization, and authenticity that our customers expect from us.

Growth is our default:

We treat capability as built, not innate. A static skills model can’t keep pace with our market. Growth here isn’t just a buzzword in a slide deck, it’s hardwired into the design of every single role.

Radical Personalization:

We’ve scrapped the traditional corporate ladder. We resource your growth by putting you in control of your own career trajectory, empowering you with the funding and peer support to forge your own path.

Unfiltered Authenticity:

AI can automate speed and polish, but it can't automate real human contribution. We foster a culture of direct feedback and raw authenticity because the unique edge you bring is our greatest competitive advantage.

WHAT'S ON YOUR PLATE?

Design authentic people experiences & products:

Go beyond tech platforms to build a comprehensive ecosystem of human experiences. You will design a diverse portfolio of touchpoints; from cultural rituals and growth moments to seamless teamwork that remove friction and empower our people to bring their whole, unfiltered selves to work and unlock their absolute full potential.

• Build strong, trust-based relationships across your squad to accelerate execution and raise the quality of decisions
• Collaborate closely with business leaders and People Partners to uncover unmet employee needs and identify opportunities
• Lead the discovery process for your squad; owning it end-to‑end from problem framing to solution validation
• Immerse yourself in understanding our employees; who they are, what they value, how they thrive, and what stands in their way
• Combine employee interviews, data analysis, and market insights to remove friction or prioritize problems and solutions based on needs and impact
• Build for Scale: Rapidly ideate, prototype, and test solutions that work across highly diverse roles, seniority levels, and country contexts.
• Drive Cross-Functional Execution: Collaborate and own the dependency map.
• Define Success & Own the Metrics: Define what "working" means before products are launched. You will report against these honestly, including when a launched experience underperforms and needs to be killed or re‑scoped.
• Influence & Enable Change: Partner with leaders and People Partners to drive adoption plans, comms, and manager enablement, because even a captive internal user base needs to be won over.

WHAT DID WE ORDER?

Who You Are. And What You Like.

You are deeply invested in human potential and the mechanics of collective genius. You know that culture is the ultimate competitive advantage, and you understand the sheer impact that healthy, highly effective teams can create.

You are fast, agile and driven.

You're an experienced Product Manager with at least 5 years of work experience in Product Management.

• You have successfully launched products to market or to a large internal user base
• You have strong understanding of Agile product management and a solid grasp of the responsibilities of empowered product teams
