Job Description

The role is remote-first and we meet in London one day per month. If you’d like to understand more about what it’s like to work at Flexa, then read our ways of working and benefits doc here

Here at Flexa, we’re on a mission to bring transparency to the global hiring market 🌍

But what does that mean 🤔

We work with companies to get them discovered as truly flexible places to work, by verifying them through our two-stage Flexification™ process. Our platform enables users to find out which companies offer the working environment that they want through our flexibility filters. 

We have over 400,000 users, 150+ companies, and we are just closing our latest round of funding… So, we are looking for someone to take product at Flexa to the next level!

This role is our first ever product hire, and will take full ownership of product at Flexa on both the B2B and D2C side of the business. 

Day-to-day tasks will include 📩

  • Analysing site data to understand behaviour on the Flexa website (Lucky Orange, Google Analytics, etc.) and testing changes to optimise this behaviour and encourage the actions that we want.

  • Working with our designer to improve site pages and user journeys, we work fast at Flexa, so a key part of this role will be managing the rollout of updates and new features with the tech and design team. 

  • Working with our marketing team to increase conversion and acquisition from our adverts across all social platforms (including working on CTAs, landing pages, onboarding flows, etc.)

  • User testing and market research to ensure that we are the best product in the market, and retain our competitive advantage. 

The key things that we will be looking for in applicants 🔑

  • At least 2 years of product management experience

  • Experience or interest in optimising conversion from marketing and advertising

  • A solid set of generalist product management skills, as this is our first product hire, you’ll be picking up a lot of things and running with them!

  • Experience working directly with technical and design teams (e.g. not via a project manager)

Some nice-to-haves ✅

Below are some criteria that we would love someone to have at least a few of. Please don't be put off from applying if you don't match all of the below criteria. If you think you'd be brilliant at this role, then please apply anyway. 

  • Experience with a two-sided product / marketplace

  • User testing experience, or at least an interest in learning about it!

  • Experience optimising landing pages, A/B testing, and analysing the data from those tests

  • Previously worked in a startup environment

  • Some analytics / data visualisation skills - particularly with Google Analytics

What can we offer you? 🎁

  • We (genuinely!) think that this is an exciting opportunity to learn quickly in an environment that will support you and give you freedom and autonomy to shape the product and our future

  • c.45 days holiday! We offer 2 week-long company shut down periods, plus 25 days holiday, plus bank holidays. 

  • Flexible working! Work wherever you want (we can only support being based in the UK at the moment, though). We meet once a month in London for a co-working day and some drinks afterwards 

  • An office that you can use if you wish, based near Broadway Market in East London, but there’s no obligation to come in more than once a month on our nominated team day

  • Generous annual company and personal performance based bonus

  • A very easy-going but driven team that want to enjoy work and the team we work with 

  • A culture where we care about output, not how many hours you work. You will be given autonomy from day one, but we will always be here to help and guide

  • Employee share options scheme

We are a fast-growth startup and, generally, we have great work-life balance and don’t want or need people to work long hours, but some weeks are busier than others.

We're a super diverse team on all fronts apart from one very important one... Racial diversity. This is our number one hiring goal for this year and we know that we need to do better. We believe that a flexible working environment is a more inclusive working environment, and we are committed to making sure that Flexa is as inclusive as possible, so please never hesitate to talk to us about your wishes, needs, and circumstances.
