Role Overview

We are looking for a hands‑on, execution‑driven strategic leader SVP/Head of Product for all B2C Brands (CheapOair and OneTravel, US & Canada), to lead the next phase of evolution of our travel platform.

With strong technical fluency and deep B2C eCommerce experience, you will own the end‑to‑end customer journey across mobile app, mobile web, desktop, and the enterprise platform that powers the business.

This is a high‑impact role at the center of our growth strategy. You will take full ownership of product performance across the funnel. Identifying friction, accelerating our mobile‑led growth strategy, driving measurable conversion gains, and continuously modernizing the platform to deliver a seamless, high‑performing experience for millions of travelers.

Beyond optimization, you will unify product ownership across teams, establish clarity of accountability, and build a disciplined execution engine that consistently delivers results. You will work closely with Marketing, Revenue, UX, Engineering, and Content to align roadmap, experimentation velocity, and commercial impact.

This is not a purely conceptual or design‑led position. We are looking for a strong operator who combines strategic thinking with deep execution capability — someone who can elevate the product while ensuring it performs flawlessly every day.

This leader will co‑own User Experience (UX) as a core pillar of Product, ensuring UX is tightly integrated into funnel strategy and experimentation. Product initiatives must ship with intuitive, high‑quality experiences that directly support adoption, conversion, retention, and long‑term customer value.

• Drive a mobile‑led growth strategy across all B2C brands and serve as the single accountable owner of product performance across mobile app, mobile web and desktop.
• Own the end‑to‑end Product and User Experience across the full customer journey—from initial search through shopping, booking, predeparture, in‑departure, in‑trip‑trip, and post‑trip—ensuring FP’s leisure travel brands deliver a trustworthy, concierge‑level experience at every touchpoint.
• Ownership of home, landing, and all other pages along with SEO in partnership with Marketing.

Daily Product Fixing & Optimization

• Maintain a real‑time pulse on performance, errors, and blockers.
• Lead and strengthen the product organization over time.
• Set a culture of speed, accountability, problem‑solving, and customer focus.
• Assess existing talent and recruit or replace where necessary.

Cross‑Functional Collaboration

• Partner closely with Marketing, Content, UX, Tech, and Revenue teams.
• Ensure content availability, accuracy, and optimization across surfaces.
• Work with UX—not as a designer—but as the owner of the overall customer experience.

Funnel & Customer Experience Ownership

• Own the full eCommerce funnel from entry to booking.
• Ensure consistency across all surfaces: mobile web (largest), desktop, and app.
• Oversee content, navigation, page performance, error handling, merchandising, and payments.

Qualifications

Education

• Bachelor’s degree required in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Systems, or a related technical discipline.
