What We DoPerlego is on a mission to make education accessible to everyone. Learners worldwide struggle to afford and access the books they need to succeed.

We partner with hundreds of universities, businesses, and training providers to put a library in every learner’s pocket, and we are only getting started.How we work togetherWe work in a matrix structure and organise ourselves into cross‑functional tribes working together on common goals, with each tribe focusing on a specific channel and including all the necessary roles and skills to deliver on our objectives.As a Senior Product Manager, you will be joining our D2C product team and taking ownership of a strategically critical domain: Monetisation. You will inherit an established squad with a live retention and re‑subscription roadmap, and your mandate is to evolve it — expanding into revenue growth opportunities and driving the next phase of subscription model development, working alongside PMs owning Growth and Product Experience.What we're looking forA commercially sharp, data‑driven Senior PM to own Perlego's direct‑to‑consumer (D2C) monetisation strategy end‑to‑end. Your north‑star metrics will be ARPU, Gross Margin, and CLTV — and you will be accountable for evolving the pricing, packaging, and subscription model foundations that make Perlego's consumer revenue durable and defensible.You will inherit an established squad with strong momentum in retention and re‑subscription, and take it further — building on that base to unlock expansion revenue opportunities and drive subscription model evolution. This is a senior, high‑autonomy role with significant commercial impact on our consumer business.Own the D2C monetisation roadmap from day one — define the vision, prioritise ruthlessly, and lead our team from idea to launch across pricing, packaging, billing, and ARPU expansion.Drive D2C unit economics, partnering closely with our Head of Paid Marketing on acquisition economics (cost to acquire vs. revenue recovered), payment economics (authorisation rates, dunning, payment method mix), and subscription plan performance.Lead pricing and packaging strategy — design, test, and optimise subscription plans, pricing tiers, promotional mechanics, and billing cycles to maximise conversion and revenue per user.Own retention revenue — build and execute strategies for expansion (upsell, plan upgrades) and re‑subscription (lapsed user reactivation) as key ARPU growth levers within the D2C funnel.Define and own monetisation metrics — ARPU, Gross Margin, and CLTV — establishing reporting cadences and sharing insights that build a commercial mindset across the product team.Partner closely with the Growth PM to align on the subscriber acquisition‑to‑monetisation handoff — ensuring pricing, activation, and early retention are coherent end‑to‑end.Leverage data and customer insight to identify pricing opportunities, model willingness‑to‑pay, and validate hypotheses through rapid experimentation.Manage external providers and partners relevant to payments, billing infrastructure, and subscription tooling, in close partnership with our Finance and RevOps teams.Communicate commercial plans and results clearly to others, creating buy‑in and shared accountability for revenue outcomes.Act as a product and commercial evangelist — promote data‑driven decision‑making, pricing best practices, and a results‑oriented culture across the product team.Who you areA senior, commercially fluent Product Manager 🚀 — You have 5+ years of product management experience, with a strong and demonstrable focus on monetisation, pricing strategy, and LTV optimisation in a consumer (D2C) subscription context.
