We’re on a mission to become the go-to destination for students across Europe to find a trusted home away from home. We make every step of the rental journey simple and seamless, so students can focus on what really matters: studying, exploring, and growing.

With HousingAnywhere, Kamernet, and Studapart under our roof, we’re Europe’s largest student rental platform.

You’ll find us in Rotterdam, Paris, and Cergy, always guided by our four core values: Ownership, We are enablers, We are changemakers, and We are connectors.

Join us in empowering students unlock their potential through a safe, online, rental experience.

We're looking for an experienced Product Manager to build the engines that power HousingAnywhere’s growth.

In this role, you will treat our core business capabilities - from financial infrastructure to marketing technology - as high-value products. You will bridge the gap between technical complexity and business strategy, ensuring that our internal teams (Marketing, Finance, Sales, Trust & Safety) have the scalable tools they need to succeed. You aren't just maintaining "backend systems"; you are defining the product vision for how money moves, how risk is managed, and how our teams operate efficiently across our multi-brand ecosystem. You will shape how AI enters our internal operations -- from document intelligence to risk automation -- turning emerging capabilities into durable platform advantage.

Your role and impact

• Commercial & Admin Enablement: Manage our internal Admin Panel and other tooling  as a core product. You will build new workflows and tools that Sales and Managed Accounts teams use daily, exploring where AI-assisted workflows can reduce manual effort, and optimizing them for speed and ease of use to support high-volume operations.
• Growth, Marketing & CRM Infrastructure: Partner with the Marketing teams to treat our customer lifecycle stack as a product. You will define the roadmap for attribution, affiliate networks, and CRM integrations, ensuring we have the technical capability to scale user acquisition profitably and manage customer relationships effectively.
• Data & Infrastructure Foundation: Collaborate with Engineering to ensure our platform infrastructure and data pipelines are robust. You ensure our data pipelines are clean, accurate, and structured to power both operational decision-making and the AI models that depend on them.
• Financial Infrastructure: Own the domain of Payments & Payouts. You will ensure compliant, scalable money flows (pay-ins/pay-outs/billing) and build the tools our Finance Ops team needs for reconciliation. You will drive our move toward AI-powered KYC/KYB processes, reducing manual review while ensuring regulatory compliance across markets.
• Trust, Safety & Risk: Champion the strategy for platform integrity. You will determine the right product balance between high security (2FA, verification, anti-fraud) and low friction, protecting our users and brand reputation without hurting conversion rates. You will work with Engineering to deploy risk-scoring models that detect fraudulent activity at scale.

 Your profile

• Professional Experience: 5+ years of experience in product management, ideally in a Marketplace, FinTech, or SaaS environment. 
• Strategic Mindset: You're able to think strategically about the product’s long-term vision while also paying meticulous attention to the details of execution.
• Problem-Solving Ability: You're a true problem solver with strong analytical capabilities. You're able to manage multiple, often competing, priorities effectively.
• Cross-Functional Communication: You act as the bridge between diverse internal teams. You excel at translating complex requirements into shared goals; collaborating with Marketers on attribution, aligning with Finance on reconciliation, and partnering with Security on risk, ensuring everyone moves in the same direction.
• Outcome Orientation: You measure success by business impact (e.g., "reduced fraud by 10%," "improved payout speed by 20%"), not just by the number of features shipped.
• AI Fluency: You've experimented with AI tools in your own work -- whether for analysis, workflow automation, or product experimentation -- and you're motivated to go deeper. You understand AI well enough to evaluate what to build, buy, or prompt.
• Stakeholder Empathy: You view internal teams as your customers. You are skilled at saying "no/not now" to low-value requests to focus on the initiatives that truly move the needle for the company.
• Technical Depth: You think in systems. You understand integrations, data flows, and platform architecture well enough to spot bad estimates, ask the right questions, and push back when a proposed solution won't scale.
• Data-Driven Approach: You are data-informed, using insights to guide your decisions. Experience with event-based analytics tools such as Mixpanel or Amplitude is a big plus.

What’s in it for you 

• Unlimited paid holidays, minimum-based not maximum!
• Position based in our Rotterdam office with hybrid working policy (2 office days).
• Flexibility to work remotely for up to 2 months per year!
• 1,000 EUR personal development budget.

• Personal equipment, including laptop and ergonomic setup.
• Gym membership discount with GoVital or OneFit.
• Dutch/English classes budget.
• Variable pension scheme.
• Diverse international community (46+ nationalities).
• Pet-friendly office in Rotterdam city centre. 
• Team-building events and after-work drinks every Friday.

About the role

We are looking for a Senior Product Designer  to join our Design team and shape the future of search and discovery across a two-sided rental marketplace.

At HousingAnywhere, discovery is not just about finding listings, it’s about building trust, enabling confident decisions, and driving successful bookings between tenants and landlords across borders.

You’ll be collaborating closely with Product, Engineering, and Data to improve relevance, ranking, qualification, and conversion across the funnel.

This is a problem-shaping role. You are expected to define what should be built, not just how it looks.

Key responsibilities

• Take responsibility for the entire design process in your team, from initial research and discovery, ideation, conceptualisation and design to testing and validation of the solutions.
• Own and drive the performance and metrics for experience you build. Be conscious of how your design solutions impact users.
• Deeply understand the day-to-day operations of our internal supply teams, their goals and needs. Lead with user-centric design by absorbing internal customer feedback and insights received across all channels.
• Proactively identify opportunities for UX improvements in your domain, working in close collaboration with the product manager, engineers, and other stakeholders. 
• Facilitate design workshops together with colleagues from UX and other teams.
• Be an ambassador for design thinking and experience design towards internal stakeholders and teams.

Your profile

• 7+ years of experience in product design for complex digital products.
• Strong experience with search, discovery, or marketplace platforms.
• Proven ability to design end-to-end user journeys in multi-step decision flows.
• Experience working in cross-functional teams (Product + Engineering + Data).
• Ability to independently drive discovery and define problem spaces.
• Strong interaction design and UX craft.
• Experience using data, metrics, and experimentation to inform decisions.
• Comfortable working in ambiguous, fast-paced environments.

Nice to have

• Experience with ranking, recommendation systems, or personalization.
• Experience in two-sided marketplaces.
• Familiarity with conversion optimization and funnel metrics.
• Experience mentoring designers or contributing to design standards.

We are looking for someone who:

• Takes full ownership and drives work forward independently.
• Is proactive and challenges assumptions when needed.
• Is comfortable navigating trade-offs between user needs and business goals.
• Brings clarity to complexity and ambiguity.
• Cares deeply about quality, outcomes, and real user impact.
• Is analytical and curious, using data to inform decisions .

This role comes with real complexity:

• You’ll balance tenant experience vs. landlord success vs. marketplace health.
• You’ll work with imperfect data and evolving ranking logic.
• You’ll face ambiguous problems with no obvious solutions.
• You’ll be expected to deliver both speed and high-quality craft.

If you want to own impactful problems in a real marketplace environment, this is the right place for you!
