Our platform makes it simple for drivers to find, book and pay for parking, while empowering our operating partners to deliver exceptional parking experiences.
About the role: As a Senior Product Manager, you will own the strategy and execution for JustPark's Events proposition. You will work closely with Commercial, Marketing, Engineering, Data and Design to turn event-day parking into a seamless experience for drivers, venues and operators. This role calls for strong product judgement, excellent communication, and the ability to lead and influence cross-functional teams.
You will:
- Own and grow one of JustPark's most visible product domains
- Shape the event-day experience for drivers, venues and operators
- Drive a commercially important growth bet the whole business is invested in
If you enjoy taking ambiguous, high-stakes problems and bringing structure to them, this role will give you real ownership and impact.
Product Ownership
- Own the Events product strategy, vision and annual roadmap, feeding substantively into company planning
- Shape where the product goes next: propose new directions ahead of the market rather than only executing the current roadmap, and make the investment case for bets not yet on it
- Prioritise based on customer value, commercial opportunity and risk
Discovery and Product Excellence
- Drive product discovery with drivers, venues and operators to understand the jobs to be done
- Take on ambiguous, high-stakes problems, such as event-day demand spikes and multi-party venue and operator complexity, and bring structure where there is no obvious playbook
- Shift the team from measuring output to measuring outcomes, taking an evidence-led approach throughout
Execution
- Drive development from discovery through launch, working with Engineering and Design to funnel a prioritised backlog in line with strategy
- Write clear product requirements and acceptance criteria, and support agile ceremonies
- Manage cross-team dependencies across Engineering, Commercial, Marketing and Operations
Leadership and Influence
- Align senior stakeholders on complex trade-offs, including those with competing priorities
- Lead cross-functional initiatives as the primary driver, including where you hold no formal authority
- Build a culture of high standards, honest feedback and customer focus, and defend product direction under pressure
- Raise the bar across the team: mentor other PMs, improve their briefs and challenge weak assumptions
Metrics and Performance
- Define success metrics and OKRs for the domain, for example event conversion, repeat booking and supply activation
- Use A/B experiments to measure performance and drive continuous improvement
Requirements
- 5+ years of product management experience
- A track record of owning a product area end to end, and of raising the standard of the teams and PMs around you
- Strong analytical and prioritisation skills across qualitative and quantitative methods
- Experience influencing and aligning stakeholders across technical and non-technical teams
- Experience working in Agile environments alongside Engineering and Design
- Strong e-commerce experience across both web and mobile
- Comfort operating in a fast-paced, scaling tech environment
Nice to have: experience in a two-sided marketplace, or with live events, ticketing, venues or high-demand operational products.
We trust you to know what's needed to get the job done. That's why we work on a hybrid basis, three days in the office with Tuesdays and Thursdays being our anchor days. We'll make sure you have the right kit and environment to succeed.
