As Head of Product - Transactions, you will own the end-to-end transaction experience at Kleinanzeigen: how people complete trades, pay or arrange pickup, understand status and disputes, and return for another trade. You will lead four Senior/Principal Product Managers and set a coherent strategy for moving managed trade from optional towards the required way to complete eligible transactions across shipping, local pickup and cash, subject to applicable terms and operational readiness. You will balance adoption with the share of buyer-seller interactions that end in completed trades, seller trust, repeat use and sustainable business value. You will work closely with Engineering, Design, Data, Legal, Finance, Risk, Customer Support and Commercial partners as well as the other Heads of Product, to drive awareness, onboarding and adoption of managed trade across the platform.
