## Job description

### About Us

Perk (formerly TravelPerk) is the intelligent platform for travel and spend management. Built to tackle the time-consuming, manual work that gets in the way of real work, our tools automate everything from travel bookings to expenses, invoice processing, and more. By eliminating this shadow work that wastes hours, erodes morale, and saps innovation, we’re on a mission to power real work, with real impact.

We’re trusted by more than 10,000 companies worldwide, including Wise, On Running, Breitling, and Fabletics, and we’re tackling the 7 hours of lost productivity per employee each week, a $1.7 trillion problem http://www.perk.com/shadow-work-report.

Founded in 2015, Perk has grown into a global company of more than 1,800 people across 12 offices globally, with headquarters in London and Boston. We combine innovation, control, and simplicity to transform how businesses work and how people feel at work.

At Perk, we’re driven by our values, like being an owner, delivering a 7-star experience, and working as one team. We value curiosity, purpose, and mindset, not just knowledge, to unlock the power in your potential. Our talent team brings together leading minds from the travel and SaaS industries, representing over 70 countries. If you’re excited about having a real impact and shaping how millions of people experience work, we’d love you on the team.

### ABOUT THE ROLE

At Perk, we believe in empowering cross-functional teams that drive exceptional results for our customers and the company. We’re transforming how work gets done by eliminating tedious manual processes in travel, spend, and events.

As a Product Manager at Perk, you will play a pivotal role in driving innovation by identifying opportunities, shaping product strategy, and leading execution. You’ll work closely with customers, stakeholders, and lean product development teams to build best in class solutions for our users.

We are currently looking for a Staff Product Manager to join our Travel & Spend product team and redefine the standard for how modern businesses manage their money on the move.

While most companies treat "Travel" and "Expenses" as two separate, clunky silos, your mission is to merge them into a single, seamless flow. This isn't about incremental improvements; it’s about building an end-to-end experience that removes friction and complexity, from budgeting and instant approvals to frictionless submission, payments and automated reconciliation.

As a Staff Product Manager, you will own a strategic area of our product, driving growth for our Spend product. This is a role for a builder who thrives in the "grey area." You will navigate high levels of ambiguity, deeply research unmet user needs, and orchestrate execution across multiple product squads.

### WHAT YOU’LL DO

- Own the vision, strategy, and roadmap for our Spend ecosystem

- Drive high-velocity execution with a world class team of making bold, fast bets informed customer feedback, data, market research, and deep intuition for how AI can reshape how teams operate

- Use customer insights with technical possibilities, crafting intuitive user experiences that simplify the user experience

- Help millions of employees and thousands of finance teams seamlessly manage expenses, cards, and invoice processing.

- Prototype rapidly using tools like Claude and Cursor to accelerate the product development lifecycle and fast-forward to production-ready products.

- Stay deeply plugged into AI research, industry trends, and emergent applications, filtering signal from noise and applying it creatively to Perk products

- Empower Your Team: Lead with a servant-leadership approach help stay focused, remove distractions, and foster creativity and collaboration

### WHAT YOU’LL NEED

- Strong customer empathy and design thinking, with a passion to understand the entire expense lifecycle — from the moment of spend inception through automated reconciliation to final posting in the ERP system — and the specific friction points unique to complex accounting workflows

- Fluency in data and how to make data-driven product decisions

- Experience evaluating product decisions and prioritization trade-offs

- Demonstrated ability to lead and influence small teams of engineers & designers toward a common goal

- Ability to collaborate with multiple stakeholders and large cross-functional teams

- Excellent written and verbal communication skills

- Passion for AI, shown through hands-on building, prototyping, or side projects, and staying current on research and tools.

- Fluency with modern prototyping tools (e.g. Cursor, Bolt, Claude Code) and comfort with design/collaboration environments like Figma and Git.

### How We Work

At Perk, we take an IRL-first approach to work, where our team works together in-person 3 days a week. As such, this role requires you to be based within commuting distance of our hubs. We fundamentally believe in the value of meeting in real life to improve connectivity, productivity, creativity and ultimately making us a great place to work.

For certain roles, we can help with relocation from anywhere in the world, English is the official language at the office. Please submit your resume in English if you choose to apply. Do not forget to submit an updated portfolio and/or resume.

Perk is a global company with a diverse customer base, and we want to make sure the people behind our product reflect that. We’re an equal opportunity employer, which means you’re welcome at Perk regardless of how you look, where you’re from, or anything else that makes you, well, you.

### Protect Yourself from Recruitment Scams

All official communication from Perk will always come from email addresses ending in @perk.com http://perk.com or @externalperk.com http://externalperk.com, our verified social media channels, or recruiters listed on our official LinkedIn page. We will never ask you to pay for equipment, training, or fees, request sensitive personal information such as bank details early in the process, or communicate through unofficial apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, or Signal. If you receive a message claiming to be from Perk that seems suspicious, please do not respond. Forward it to security [at] perk .com, and we will confirm whether it is legitimate.

#LI-Hybrid

**Live in Perk’s hiring system.** Read from the company's own applicant tracking system, not reposted from a job board — so it's a real, open requisition rather than an ad that outlived the role.

We remove it as soon as it disappears at source.
