About Perlego
Perlego is on a mission to make education accessible to everyone. Dubbed "The Spotify for Textbooks," we give learners worldwide unlimited access to over 1.5 million ebooks and educational resources from 9,000+ leading publishers, and we partner with hundreds of universities, businesses, and training providers to put a library in every learner's pocket. More recently we've expanded beyond the textbook into leisure reading, bringing best-selling fiction, non-fiction, professional and general-interest books onto the same subscription, so the person who came to us for their course reading now has somewhere to go when the term ends. Students, professionals and curious readers in over 100 countries read on Perlego every day, across web, iOS and Android, and the experience they have once they're inside the product is what this role is about.
The role
The New User Experience (NUX) squad is responsible for generating and capturing new demand for Perlego. NUX owns the journey from someone’s first search through to becoming a subscriber: the organic search presence and landing pages that bring people in, the book pages, signup, onboarding and checkout that turn a visit into a subscription, and the emails that bring back people who left before deciding. NUX makes sure Perlego keeps a steady flow of new subscribers across both its student and trade audiences, and it improves conversion through a continuous programme of experiments.
As the Senior Product Manager in NUX, you’ll own conversion rate optimisation across our D2C growth funnels. You’ll decide where to test, design and run the experiments, and be accountable for the conversion gains they deliver. Alongside that, you’ll be working on bets such as landing pages built around publisher reading lists, personalised book recommendations in email, book pages designed for trade readers rather than students, and work closely with our SEO Lead on SEO program that makes a 1.5-million-book catalogue findable.
Requirements
Who you are
- A strong, hands-on Product Manager with 4+ years owning product end to end, from discovery through experimentation to shipping. You have owned a KPI, not just a delivery plan, and you can say how much you moved it.
- A track record of improving conversion on high-volume growth funnels for D2C subscription products. You can point to specific experiments that moved signup or subscription rates and explain why they worked.
- A confident experimenter. You move from hypothesis to evidence quickly. You know how to size a test, choose guardrail metrics, spot a result that is noise, and recognise when a change should ship without a test at all.
- Genuinely quantitative. There is no dedicated analyst attached to the squad, so you are comfortable in the data yourself. You can interrogate cohort data and know your funnel metrics well enough to explain and defend your decisions.
