Airbnb was born in 2007 when two hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to over 5 million
hosts who have welcomed over 2 billion guest arrivals in almost every country across the globe. Every day, hosts offer unique
stays and experiences that make it possible for guests to connect with communities in a more authentic way.
The Community You Will Join:
Our goal is to accelerate EMEA growth by enabling country teams to execute local growth plans — with a primary focus on driving
demand. We work closely with marketing, growth marketing, product, communications, data science, and policy at both central and
local level to develop scalable, holistic programs across markets.
The Difference You Will Make:
As a Senior Growth & Operations Manager, EMEA, you will work with both Country and EMEA leadership to develop and execute growth
initiatives to accelerate Airbnb’s business in the region.
Your attention to detail, analytical mindset, organization and communication skills will all ensure you succeed. You love to work
on multiple priorities, run complex workstreams in parallel and thrive in fast-paced, ever changing environments. You want a role
where you will both define strategies then flawlessly execute them. You're equally comfortable presenting to leadership and
managing the operational details of a project.
This role is based in either London, Berlin, or Barcelona (hybrid, 2 days a week in the office), and is not eligible for
relocation support.
A Typical Day:
Own the conception, execution, and measurement of cross-functional business initiatives end-to-end. Concretely, this means
defining a crisp problem statement, articulating the ideal solution to that problem, identifying key dependencies blocking that
solution, working with cross-functional stakeholders to achieve the solution and driving post-mortem on learnings. These
initiatives will span across the demand, supply, and regulatory surfaces of the business, both on tactical short-terms wins and
strategic long-term actions.
Support business growth and acceleration by sourcing and operating innovative levers. Concretely, this means sizing,
coordinating and operating pilots around broad topics such as traffic, CRM, growth marketing, new supply segments, distribution
partnerships…
Drive regular business operation meetings and initiate meaningful conversations. Concretely, this means organizing and leading
weekly meetings or working routines with cross-functional project teams (sales, marketing, product, community, legal…) to
ensure key initiatives are on track and escalate accordingly when relevant.
Present analysis, insights and actionable plans to the regional leadership team to drive key business decisions. Concretely,
this means using and merging available data sources and tools, internal and external to analyze macro and micro trends and
define a key problem to solve. Then based on consultation with internal stakeholders, framing a recommendation and plan to
support leadership decisions.
Your Expertise:
Qualified candidates will have 6+ years of work experience, preferably with experience in business consulting or Strategy and
Operations in a scale-up. Tech background is a plus.
Business background with understanding of operations and/or sales, growth marketing and commercial partnerships.
Strong project management experience working cross-functionally with multiple departments, ideally in tech companies or in
innovation business units. Mastering of project management frameworks and methodologies. Ability to frame issues and develop
hypotheses to solve them. Ability to organize and prioritize work, for oneself as well as for various functions to achieve
common goals.
Analytical mindset, able to conduct end-to-end business analysis, leveraging excel and AI tools. SQL or Python knowledge is a
plus.
Hands-on approach and detail-oriented. Getting things done fast and learning by doer mindset.
Written and verbal communicator with strong presentation and influence skills.
Fluent in English required; another European language is a strong plus.
Location: London, Berlin or Barcelona, willing to come frequently to the office.

integrating the customer journey from sales through to customer success, ensuring that global and local standards are consistently

and high data quality.

closely with the Global CX Operations team to translate strategy into predictable regional execution across three core pillars:
KPIs, Standards, and Operating Cadences.
* Enable Cross-Functional Handoffs: Actively drive Customer First execution by working with operations peers to improve critical
intersections. Optimise the handoffs and alignment between Sales, Renewals, Support, Professional Services, and Customer
Success.
* Maintain Customer Lifecycle Visibility: Keep an uncompromised view of the broader customer lifecycle through every major phase:
Purchase & Plan, Learn, Deploy & Adopt, Use & Grow, Renew & Expand, and Advocate.
* Mitigate Risk via "Path to Green": Oversee the execution and accountability of regional "Get Well Plans", tracking Churn
Dollars Saved against regional worst-case boundaries to proactively transition at-risk segments back to health.
* Shift to Leading Metrics: Drive the regional shift from lagging performance indicators (Renewal & Expansion rates) to leading
ones (Stakeholder Expansion, Outcome Attainment, Customer Health targets >80% Green, and Lead Pass generation).
* Provide Operational Muscle for Scaling: Evaluate operational experiments (e.g. Key Account initiatives) to test new
methodologies, optimise workflows, and scale the organisation efficiently.
* Deliver Executive Read-outs: Prepare and lead comprehensive Monthly and Quarterly Business Reviews (MBR/QBR) for regional and
global stakeholders, delivering a unified, metrics-driven narrative of EMEA performance.
* Manage Documentation Lifecycle: Own the quality, freshness, and accuracy of the internal documentation repository, including
playbooks, customer asset standards (SBRs, MBRs, QBRs), and operational frameworks.
* Capacity and Coverage Planning: Drive and support the resource planning process to ensure effective and efficient coverage of
top priority accounts aligning with aligned coverage strategies and priorities
Minimum Required Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities:
* Demonstrated experience and success in GTM operations, customer success operations, or revenue operations, preferably within a
SaaS and Enterprise business model.
* Exceptional analytical and quantitative skills; good with numbers, highly logical in thinking, and capable of driving sound

* Deep understanding of the end-to-end customer journey, the enterprise software lifecycle, and business outcome attainment.

cross-functional teams, bridge gaps, and gain buy-in.
* A strong growth mindset with an appetite for constant improvement, change management, and navigating high-growth,
performance-focused environments.
* Extreme attention to detail, specifically regarding data hygiene, governance, and operational rigour.
* Deep experience with CRM and CS platforms (e.g. Salesforce.com, Gainsight) and data visualisation/reporting tools.
* Proven track record of evaluating operational experiments and implementing successful learnings to optimise workflows.
