Together with UX, Research, Engineering, and Marketing you are responsible for making our product, the leading real estate marketplace in the Netherlands, successful. We connect home buyers, brokers and home sellers on our well-loved platform. Over 94% of all real estate transactions in the Netherlands are facilitated on funda.

You’ll be tackling big, hairy, 2-sided marketplace challenges: everything from validating the needs of the evolving broker profession to running experiments to make iterative improvements to existing products. You ensure brokers have the most efficient ways to reach their audiences and you understand the performance of the product through data.

Your work has an incredible impact on the daily life of real estate agents and consumers alike. According to Peter, our Chief Product Officer, this is a unique opportunity to make a difference to all aspects of how real estate is bought, sold, rented, built and found in the Netherlands.
