About the Role
Our Operations team operates where Uber's technology meets the real world.
We own the local business and set and execute the strategy for our markets in Northern Europe - Netherlands, Sweden, Belgium, Ireland, Finland, Norway, Luxembourg, and Denmark. At the heart of what we do in Operations is solving problems. We use data, operational levers, and strategic product, process, and campaign launches to grow the business and ensure that Uber offers the most preferred, reliable, and convenient service across Northern Europe, anytime and anywhere.
What the Candidate Will Do
This role sits in the Marketplace team within our Operations group. The Marketplace team sits at the crux of Uber’s two-sided marketplace, with our riders on the one side and our driver-partners on the other. Through optimal pricing decisions, the efficient and targeted use of rider promotions and driver incentives, and leveraging Uber’s powerful pricing and matching technology, we ensure smooth marketplace operations, optimal outcomes for both riders and driver-partners, and solid foundations for competitive and long-term growth.
You will be responsible for the competitive strategies, execution, and outcomes across a subset of Northern European markets, including ownership of key incentive levers, pricing, and broader marketplace initiatives.
These are some of the activities you can expect in your day-to-day:
- Develop and execute the vision, strategy, and tactics needed to grow our share of the category in our markets
- Analyze real-time and historical data to assess market trends, track competitor moves, and identify opportunities to optimize Uber’s position
- Devise, project manage, and execute marketplace, product, and incentive strategies to support business growth
- Continuously improve and streamline our recurring competition cadence and processes, looking for efficiency and optimization opportunities
- Investigate and resolve competitive or operational challenges by conducting deep dives and collaborating with cross-functional teams
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams, such as Legal, Tax, and Product, to roll out new initiatives, work towards common goals, and continuously improve the competitive state of our markets

- Structured and organized: You are a structured thinker and executor, with a keen eye and attention to detail, and it shows in your work
- You are fluent in English, both in written and verbal communications
Bonus Qualifications
