Join us as Product Manager
Want to do work that really matters?
At Checkatrade, we’re building the UK’s go-to home improvement marketplace. Every day, we help millions of homeowners find the right tradesperson for the job, fast, fair, and without the faff.
As we continue to expand our platform and enhance our offerings, we are seeking a visionary Product Manager to lead the development of Checkatrade’s new advertising products. This role offers a unique opportunity to drive innovation, shape the future of advertising within our ecosystem, and unlock new growth opportunities for our company.
Forget long lists, here’s what you’ll actually spend your time on:
Designing new advertising products as well as upgrading the ones already in place. You’ll take what works today, make it stronger, and develop entirely new ways for trades to reach customers.
Using real insight to shape what we build next. Turning user behaviour, market trends and performance data into bold product decisions that actually move metrics.
Working closely with engineers, designers, data scientists and commercial teams. Getting into the detail, shipping quickly and solving problems together - not lobbing tickets over the fence.
Experimenting like it’s a sport. A/B tests, pricing trials, performance tuning, live-data tweaks - whatever it takes to figure out what “great” should look like.
Driving the launch of an entirely new growth stream for Checkatrade. Your ideas won’t sit in a backlog. They’ll help shape the next generation of how advertisers connect with customers.
It’s not about ticking every box. It’s about turning up curious, ready to crack on. You’ll do well here if you bring:
Experience in product, consulting, ad tech, digital marketing or a high-growth tech environment. You understand how digital experiences work and you’re comfortable shaping something new.
A strategic, product-thinking mindset. You can zoom out to see the opportunity, then translate it into clear priorities, trade-offs and next steps.
Strong analytical instincts and confidence with experiments. Whether it’s digging into data, interpreting results, or using insights to drive decisions - you’re comfortable proving (or disproving) ideas.
A collaborative, engineering-friendly approach. You enjoy working closely with designers, data teams, engineers and commercial partners to get things built.
Problem-solving clarity. You can simplify complexity, cut through noise, and turn messy problems into actionable product decisions.
Clear communication and storytelling. You can articulate the “why”, bring people with you, and make complex ideas digestible for any audience.
Bias for action and ownership. You’re comfortable moving fast, making smart calls in ambiguous situations and taking ideas from concept to launch.
We believe great work deserves great rewards. Here’s just a taste:
Competitive salary + annual bonus
Health, well-being and learning support
Gym membership, Smart Tech Scheme and Cycle Scheme
Birthday/Special day leave
Buy & sell holiday scheme
1 week’s paid charity leave and much more!
How we’ll get to know each other:
Screening call with one of our Talent Acquisition Partners
1st stage interview with our Head of Product and Operations (Media) - focusing on motivations, strategic thinking, problem solving, execution
Panel Stage:
• 30 mins with VP of Engineering - focusing on stakeholder alignment, ownership, communication
• 30 mins with Principal Product Manager - focusing on PM toolkit, impact analysis, business acumen
Final stage:
Case Study Presentation (60 mins) with our VP of Labs & Head of Product and Operations - focusing on strategy, data-led decision making
If you require any reasonable adjustments during our interview process, please discuss them with your Talent Acquisition Partner.
If this sounds like the place where you can do your best work, we’d love to hear from you, even if you don’t tick every box
