Air New Zealand is on an accelerated journey to deliver the best flying experience on Earth and our purpose is to enrich our country through connecting New Zealanders to each other and New Zealand to the world. As a brand promise, we endeavour to offer Manaaki to all of our employees and customers – taking care further than any other airline and creating compelling experiences that empower and connect. We expect to lead a significant transformation of our customer experience and product portfolio over the coming years and we're searching for a Senior Product Manager to join us who will be instrumental in driving and realising key elements of that vision.
The Senior Product Manager is the voice of the customer and champions user experience and business value, with a core focus on delivering product outcomes. With a deep understanding of customers, commercial outcomes, operational processes and technology, this role is responsible for developing a product vision, formulating strategy, designing the product roadmap, and working closely with business partners to deliver against it.
This role will suit someone who is naturally curious with a strategic mindset, whilst also being prepared to get into the detail. There will be a level of ambiguity you'll need to be comfortable with, coupled with complexity of the airline environment and the pace at which we work. Your desire to get the best outcome for our customers will help you drive outcomes, and you'll have demonstrated you can work with various business stakeholders, building trust and partnerships across a wide group.
This is a senior role, requiring significant depth of experience working in product development and management.
Our successful candidate:
Brings strong storytelling capability, championing product outcomes, strategy and roadmaps across diverse partners including technical, commercial, operations and external
In return:
You'll be involved in bringing to life new and innovative customer products, or taking existing Air New Zealand products to the next level.

You'll join a supportive team who all work collaboratively together to achieve great things for our customers and Air New Zealand.
Please apply via our Careers site, as we cannot accept applications via email. Due to the closedown of our corporate office over the Christmas period, applications for this role are open for an extended period of time. We will be in touch with shortlisted candidates as soon as possible once we return.
