About the role

Perk (formerly TravelPerk) is the intelligent platform for travel and spend management. Built to tackle the time-consuming, manual work that gets in the way of real work, our tools automate everything from travel bookings to expenses, invoice processing, and more. By eliminating this shadow work that wastes hours, erodes morale, and saps innovation, we're on a mission to power real work, with real impact. We're trusted by more than 10,000 companies worldwide, including Wise, On Running, Breitling, and Fabletics, and we're tackling the 7 hours of lost productivity per employee each week, a $1.7 trillion problem . Founded in 2015, Perk has grown into a global company of more than 1,800 people across 12 offices globally, with headquarters in London and Boston. We combine innovation, control, and simplicity to transform how businesses work and how people feel at work. At Perk, we're driven by our values, like being an owner, delivering a 7-star experience, and working as one team. We value curiosity, purpose, and mindset, not just knowledge, to unlock the power in your potential. Our talent team brings together leading minds from the travel and SaaS industries, representing over 70 countries. If you're excited about having a real impact and shaping how millions of people experience work, we'd love you on the team. Visit www.perk.com to learn more. At Perk, we believe in empowering cross-functional teams that drive exceptional results for our customers and the company. We're transforming how work gets done by eliminating tedious manual processes in travel, spend, and financial operations, freeing Finance Controllers to focus on strategic decision-making instead of reconciliation shadow work. As Group Product Manager for Finance Automation, you will lead the product strategy and execution across three squads responsible for delivering the intelligent financial experience at the core of Perk: Financial Experience, ERP Integrations Growth, and ERP Integrations Maturity. Together, these teams own the full accounting automation lifecycle, from the moment of spend capturing, through automated reconciliation, to final posting in the ERP system. This is a high-impact leadership role at the intersection of product, finance, and AI. You will define the multi-team roadmap, align it with TravelPerk's growth and revenue targets, and ensure that Finance Controllers and their organisations love using Perk.

Responsibilities

  • Own the group vision, strategy, and roadmap across Financial Experience and ERP Integrations, ensuring your squads deliver measurable business outcomes in alignment with Perk's mission to eliminate accounting shadow work.
  • Lead and grow a team of PMs: set expectations, coach craft, run structured 1-1s, and build a culture of ownership, customer empathy, and continuous improvement across the group.
  • Drive high-velocity execution by making bold, fast bets informed by customer feedback, data, market research, and deep intuition for how AI can reshape finance automation workflows.
  • Define and own the ERP integration strategy : Ensuring that onboarding new customers is fast and scalable, that data flows cleanly into major ERPs (like NetSuite, SAP, Business Central, Xero, QuickBooks and others), and that the technical experience meets enterprise-grade reliability.
  • Champion the finance controller experience: from invoice collection and VAT recovery to expense reconciliation and multi-entity reporting, ensure the product removes friction and creates delight at every touchpoint.
  • Prototype rapidly using tools like Claude and Cursor to accelerate the product development lifecycle and fast-forward to production-ready AI-powered automations.
  • Stay deeply plugged into AI research, fintech trends, and ERP ecosystem developments , filtering signal from noise and applying it creatively to drive step-change improvements in the product.
  • Manage stakeholders across Finance, Revenue, Customer Care, Compliance, and Engineering leadership, communicating progress, risks, and strategy clearly, and negotiating priorities with rigour.
  • Represent the Finance Automation group in leadership forums , contributing to Builders-wide strategy and cross-group alignment.

Requirements

  • Core Product Leadership
  • 5+ years in product management with at least 2 years leading a group of teams or managing other PMs. You know how to set a strategy across multiple squads without losing execution quality.
  • Strong customer empathy and design thinking. You demonstrate a passion for understanding the entire expense lifecycle, from spend inception through automated reconciliation to final ERP posting, as well as the specific friction points unique to complex accounting workflows.
  • Proven ability to define and own product vision and roadmaps that translate business goals into clear priorities, milestones, and team missions.
  • Track record of delivering high-quality products to enterprise finance users, ideally including CFOs,
