We’re the airline that dares to be different, bold, down-to-earth and built around giving our guests real choice. Safety is our backbone, service is our heartbeat, and our people are our superpower.
At Virgin Australia, we’re on a mission to be Australia’s most loved airline, for our people, our guests and our owners — and we’re looking for passionate talent to help take us even higher.
We’re vibrant, authentic and unapologetically human. Here, you can bring your whole self, your Virgin Flair and your ambition to a team that champions individuality, innovation and a whole lot of heart. If you’re excited by meaningful work, real opportunities to grow, and a culture where you can genuinely make a difference, you’ll feel right at home with us.
In our IT team, we’re the engine room that keeps Virgin Australia running smoothly, blending technical excellence with that signature Virgin spirit. We’re curious problem solvers who move fast, think smart and own our impact. Whether we’re delivering seamless digital experiences or strengthening the systems that keep our operation flying, we do it with discipline, heart and a healthy dose of innovation.
As our Product Manager (Operations Data), you’ll own the roadmap and strategic direction for data products supporting our Operations teams.
This is a highly influential role sitting at the intersection of Operations, Data and Technology. You’ll act as the key conduit between the Operations business and the Data delivery team, making sure the right problems are being solved, priorities are clear and the squad is focused on the work that creates the greatest value.
Your focus will typically look 6–18 months ahead: understanding what is coming, researching opportunities, shaping the product vision and roadmap, and turning business needs into a clear sequence of priorities for delivery.
Initially, your product portfolio may include our Operational Data Foundation, helping determine which operational data should be brought into platforms such as Databricks and in what order. Over time, this may also extend to products such as reports, dashboards, machine learning models, analytical processes, business context layers and data dictionaries.
You’re someone who can see the bigger picture without losing sight of what needs to happen next. You’re naturally curious, confident working across different parts of a business and comfortable making decisions in complex environments.
You don’t necessarily need to come from aviation or even from a data-specific product role. Strong product capability, judgement and the ability to influence are more important than having followed one particular career path.
Experience working with data products, analytics, Databricks or operational systems would be advantageous, as would experience in aviation, but neither is essential.
We’re committed to looking after you, with some of the best benefits and conditions in the industry — including:
We’re all individuals. And we love that. That’s why we encourage applications from Indigenous Australians, people with disability, those from diverse cultural backgrounds, our friends in the LGBTQI+ community, and anyone else who wants to join our family.
