What's the role?
At CAVU, we’re on a mission to reimagine travel. As Head of Product, you’ll play a pivotal role in shaping our future—leading half of our product portfolio and helping us scale The Global Travel Marketplace.
You’ll lead a team, setting direction, aligning priorities, and ensuring we’re building the right things in the right way to achieve commercial success. Working closely with UX, Engineering, Delivery, and Commercial teams, you'll help define and deliver world-class digital products for airports and travellers across the globe.
This is a critical leadership role for someone who can bring energy, clarity, and strategic vision to our product organisation. You’ll help grow and evolve our team culture, drive innovation, and ensure we continue to unlock new value for our partners and their customers as we scale globally.
About CAVU
Formed from the union of MAGO, MAG USA and our network of direct-to-consumer brands — who together drive market-leading passenger spend for airports across the world — we’ve combined our resources to address evolving passenger needs today and exceed them tomorrow.
From our revenue-accelerating single platform technology, Propel, through to our world-class hospitality venues, including Hangar, 1903, and Escape Lounges — our solutions make travel more seamless and enjoyable for passengers and more profitable for our clients and partners.
Our name is taken from the aviation meteorology term ‘Ceiling and Visibility Unlimited’, which designates the perfect flying condition. More than just a name, CAVU is our mindset. It represents all that we stand for: our proud aviation heritage, our drive to push boundaries, and our mission to create seamless, enjoyable travel experiences.
Together, we can reach new heights. Together, we are CAVU.
About You
You’ll thrive in this role if you have:
- Significant experience in digital product leadership, ideally in complex, user-facing platforms
- A track record of building and leading high-performing, agile product teams
- Strong strategic thinking with the ability to align delivery with longer-term goals
- A passion for combining data and insight to drive prioritisation and decision-making
- Exceptional communication skills—you can influence across all levels and simplify the complex
- Experience driving cross-functional collaboration to deliver scalable digital products
- Technical fluency—you understand how products are built as well as why
- Experience with B2B and/or B2C product development
- Familiarity with the travel industry
- Exposure to building mobile apps, data products, or BI/AI tools
You’ll be joining CAVU at a defining moment in our growth. With a global footprint and ambitious expansion plans, we’re moving from 0-1 and beyond—building scalable, high-impact products that transform the travel experience.
It’s a unique opportunity to shape both the “what” and the “how” of product at CAVU. You’ll lead empowered teams, influence business direction, and bring bold ideas to life—backed by collaborative peers and a customer-first mindset.
