Job description

The B2B Commercial Strategy team helps shape the future direction of BKNG’s B2B business. We work on some of the most important commercial questions facing the business — where to grow, which opportunities to back, and how to make smart choices across markets, segments, and partnerships.

This is a high-visibility role with direct exposure to senior B2B leadership and the chance to influence major commercial decisions.

You will help define Booking.coms and Booking Holding Int'ls B2B commercial priorities by identifying growth opportunities, assessing market and competitive dynamics, and shaping the recommendations that guide investment and execution. You will work on a broad mix of strategic topics, combining structured problem-solving, data-driven analysis, and strong judgment to help the business make better decisions.

• Lead strategic analyses on market trends, competitor moves, performance, and opportunity sizing
• Build business cases, financial models, and strategic recommendations to support decision-making

• Support ad-hoc projects, leading independent workstreams
• Develop frameworks that help the business prioritize, allocate resources, and execute effectively
• Partner with teams across the organization to align on priorities and move strategic initiatives forward

What You’ll Bring

• 2-5 years of experience in consulting, strategy, commercial planning, or a related field
• Strong analytical skills and the ability to turn complex information into simple, actionable insights
• Strong business judgment and comfort working through ambiguous strategic questions
• Financial modeling and business case development experience
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to influence senior stakeholders
• A proactive, ownership-driven mindset and the ability to work independently
• Ability to move between high-level strategy and hands-on execution detail

Nice to Have

• B2B, partnerships, or marketplace experience
• Travel, e-commerce, or technology industry experience
• Experience in market prioritization, portfolio strategy, or commercial planning
• Familiarity with SQL, Tableau, or similar tools
