About Skyscanner Everyone loves travelling, but planning comes with its challenges ✈️. That’s why we’ve spent 20 years building tools that turn travel-planning chaos into a breeze. Today, around 100 million travellers count on us every month to skip the whole “47 browser tabs open” phase and find flights, cars, and hotels quickly and easily. Joining Skyscanner means becoming part of a global brand that's striving to become the planet’s go-to travel hack accessible for all. Our vision? To be the world’s number one travel ally. (Ambitious? Yes, but, hey, that’s what got us here.) We’re looking for a visionary and accomplished Senior Director of Product Management, Data to lead the strategy, roadmap, and delivery of Skyscanner’s internal data platforms, tools, and capabilities. You can be based in Glasgow, Edinburgh, or London, where we adopt a hybrid working policy of working in the office twice a week. About the role Hybrid This is Skyscanner’s most senior product leadership role in the Data Capabilities organisation — where big data dreams meet real-world impact. You’ll set the direction for our company-wide data product strategy, scaling a modern, secure, and trusted ecosystem that empowers every team to move faster, build smarter, and innovate responsibly — including with AI. From data platforms and governance to experimentation and enablement, you’ll drive the evolution of our internal data capabilities through a multi-year lens. Leading a talented team of 15 Product Managers, you’ll collaborate with partners across Product, Engineering, Data Science, and Analytics to unlock the next generation of insight and intelligence at Skyscanner. What you’ll be doing Setting the strategic vision: Define and communicate a bold, company-wide data product strategy that aligns with Skyscanner’s long-term ambitions. Owning the roadmap: Build and deliver an integrated roadmap across data platforms, governance, experimentation, and enablement — all tied to measurable value. Scaling platform capabilities: Evolve our data platforms to increase speed, accessibility, and innovation — helping teams move from idea to insight in record time. Driving federated data culture: Create the standards, tooling, and guidance that enable every team to produce, share, and consume trusted data. Leading product execution: Partner across engineering, science, and analytics to prioritise effectively, deliver at pace, and optimise for outcomes (not just outputs). Championing responsible data use: Embed privacy, consent, and compliance at the heart of every platform decision. Fueling AI innovation: Guide our approach to data readiness and experimentation that powers scalable, ethical AI across the organisation. About you Strategic product leader: You’ve led large, complex product teams (10 PMs), crafted outcome-oriented strategies, and delivered internal platforms that scale. Technically fluent: You speak the language of modern data architecture — from data mesh to streaming pipelines and semantic layers — and work seamlessly with engineers. Business-aware: You can translate technical capability into tangible commercial and customer impact. Governance-ready: You understand the fine print — privacy, consent, compliance — and know how to build them into elegant, scalable solutions. AI-forward and adaptive: You’re energised by the AI frontier, balancing innovation with responsibility and clarity. Collaborative at scale: You’re a natural connector who builds alignment across disciplines, geographies, and levels. Inspiring mentor: You lead with vision, empathy, and a bias for action — building high-performing teams that love what they do.
