Job Description

SENIOR PRODUCT MANAGER, SEARCH & PRICE | PRODUCT | LONDON - UK

Travelport is the brains behind lots of your travel bookings- plane, car or hotel. Our technology is used to book that magical holiday, infamous bachelorette party or long overdue school reunion. While we can’t solve mosquito bites or lost luggage, we can simplify a lot of the technical parts of travel, and we’re looking for the best thinkers to help us do it.

We’re hiring right now for a Senior Product Manager, Trip Services Search & Price! Search for #Travelport on LinkedIn and hear from our amazing team.

How you’ll make an impact

We are seeking a Senior Product Manager to play a pivotal role in the evolution of Travelport Trip Services, the complex, high-volume APIs which power how agencies, partners, and developers search, price, book and service Travelport’s multi-source content. Reporting to the Director of Product, Trip Services, you will help shape the future of this part of Travelport’s Product Portfolio.

In this role, you will own the strategy, roadmap, and execution for Search and Price within Trip Services, ensuring customers can quickly find, compare and accurately price the right offers across NDC, ATPCO/EDIFACT and low-cost carrier content. You will combine deep product management craft, commercial acumen, and technical understanding (APIs, data, and AI principles) to drive adoption and deliver measurable value for our customers and for Travelport.

This is a senior, hands-on role for a strategic builder: someone who thrives in ambiguity, leads through influence, and loves solving complex customer problems, delivering value and measuring the outcome. You will translate vision into actionable outcomes across engineering, architecture, design, data, support and commercial teams, turning complex platform capabilities into simple, high-performing API experiences.

Your role in action

• Own the end-to-end lifecycle for search and price capabilities in Trip Services, from discovery through release to customers, building out significant new capabilities over time.
• Define the strategy and roadmap for Search and Price, balancing content breadth, relevance, response time, price accuracy and cost to serve.
• Through a deep understanding of agency, OTA and TMC workflows and the airline distribution ecosystem, identify problems and opportunities for smarter shopping and offer presentation.
• Drive the evolution of multi-source offer aggregation across NDC, ATPCO/EDIFACT and LCC content, including branded fares, fare families and ancillaries, so customers can compare like for like.
• Work collaboratively with product and technology teams to develop an optimised and aligned set of epics across the Trip Services customer journey.
• Define, track, and analyse key metrics such as look to book, price to book accuracy, response times, shopping cost and API adoption, and feed learnings back into the product development process.
• Partner with engineering and architecture on performance, scalability and shopping efficiency, including caching, filtering and intelligent request optimisation.
• Explore and apply AI and machine learning to improve relevance, ranking and personalisation of search results.
• Work with airline and content partners to understand new capabilities and translate them into clear Trip Services product priorities.
• Ship software successfully, managing influence across product, engineering, commercial, and support teams through persuasion, negotiation, and consensus building.
• Clearly communicate product strategy, benefits and results to a wide range of audiences, from immediate stakeholders to customers and the wider business.
• Act as a senior voice for Search and Price with key customers and partners, and mentor and support other product managers in the team.

Could this be you?

• Significant product management experience, developing complex products in travel technology, marketplace, or platform environments and delivering large-scale products.
• A track record of setting product strategy and crafting compelling narratives that connect product vision to business outcomes, influencing senior stakeholders and aligning cross-functional teams.
• Strong knowledge of air shopping and pricing, including fares, fare rules, taxes, branded fares and NDC offer and order concepts. GDS or airline distribution experience is a strong advantage.
• Strong understanding of API ecosystems, automation and data analytics, with experience owning API or developer-facing products and the technical fluency to engage confidently with engineers on performance, latency and scalability trade-offs.
• Strong understanding of using data and metrics to understand customers and make data driven decisions on strategy and planning.
• Demonstrated ability to improve customer experience, through understanding customer needs and requirements and driving successful adoption of highly used technology solutions.
• Demonstrated experience of using AI to shape customer value, with familiarity with AI-native product design, intelligent automation and emerging LLM-based capabilities.
• Helps build a strong product culture, raising the bar on product craft across the team.
• Professionally represents the product through compelling product demos internally and externally.
• Ability to convincingly connect larger business goals to feature backlog items, keeping delivery aligned with Product strategy.
