Senior Manager - Commercial Strategy
Get to Know Our Team
The B2B Commercial Strategy team helps shape the future direction of B2B business. We work on some of the most important commercial questions facing the business - where to grow, which opportunities to back, and how to make smart choices across markets, segments, and partnerships.
We partner closely with senior leaders and work at the intersection of strategy, analytics, and commercial decision-making. If you enjoy solving complex business problems and influencing high-impact decisions, this team offers a unique opportunity to do both.
The Opportunity
This is a high-visibility role with direct exposure to senior B2B leadership and the chance to influence major commercial decisions.
You will help define Booking.coms and Booking Holding Int'ls B2B commercial priorities by identifying growth opportunities, assessing market and competitive dynamics, and shaping the recommendations that guide investment and execution. You will work on a broad mix of strategic topics, combining structured problem-solving, data-driven analysis, and strong judgment to help the business make better decisions.
This role is well-suited to someone who enjoys both thinking strategically and driving real business impact - not just delivering analysis, but helping shape what happens next.
