What does a Product Owner at Coolblue do?
You really enjoy having the final responsibility for part of the customer journey in one of the domains at Coolblue. Together with Customer Journey Specialists, Business Analysts, and other Product Owners, you’re constantly coming up with new ideas to improve the customer journey. It’s up to you to prioritize these improvements and split them into manageable, valuable parts, so that you and your teams can quickly and constantly be valuable to both Coolblue and the customer. At the same time, you’re able to explain your vision and the outlook of the roadmap on how to add value both short and long-term on a management level.
Want to become a Product Owner at Coolblue? Keep reading to see if it suits you.
Currently we have several open vacancies. Together we will have a look what level suits you best.
You enjoy doing this
- Create a vision and make it happen, to deliver the most valuable product possible together with your team.
- “What has the greatest impact?” Work with a prioritized roadmap.
- Inspire your development team and brainstorm about the importance of epics and user stories. “How can we divide epics in the most valuable way?” “What’s the best solution to realize user stories?”
- Stakeholdermanagement. ''How do you get to the best solution possible with so many internal stakeholders?''
- “How can we validate our assumptions as soon as possible?” Stimulate the agile mindset and approach in your team and work together with the Scrum Master to bring the team to the next level.
- Making impact and making decisions. “What do we do now and what can we do later?”
- Determine the value of business requests. “Why is this so important?”

You recognize yourself in the following
- You have successfully completed a University degree.
- You have at least 2 years fulltime experience as a Product Owner of multiple teams.
- You live in the Netherlands.

- You’re very big on data-driven decisions, enthusiastic, curious, and a big fan of technology.
- You enjoy immersing yourself in the ideal customer journey every day.
- You’re good at formulating research questions. As a result, you quickly know what someone means and everything that it includes.
- Your English level is at least C2.
This is what you’re looking for in a job
- Money.
- Over 30 training courses at our own Coolblue University.
- Travel allowance and a retirement plan and where-you-work-allowance.
- 25 days of leave. As long as you promise to come back.
- A discount on all our products.
- An extraordinarily good work environment with colleagues from all over the world who make you happy, epic Coolblue parties, pubquizzing, and other activities.
- Working together in an international environment with colleagues from the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Spain, Turkey, Brazil, Mexico, and Italy, among others.
- Room for new initiatives and ideas. We’re always open to those, whether you’ve been with us for a week, a month, or a year.
- Working from an office at a great location in Rotterdam. Do you have interest in working as a Product Owner for Coolblue Energy in Utrecht? Then your office is also at an A-location!
- Hybrid working: a fine balance between working at the office and working from home. Of course, we’ll help you create the best home-office possible. Including desk chair, laptop, and blue garlands.
-
Does Coolblue offer a hybrid workplace?
Working at the office makes us happy, that’s why we are working partly from home and partly from the office.
-
Can I live outside the Netherlands and still work in the Tech department of Coolblue?
No, it’s not possible to work from abroad as a Tech colleague. We like collaborating in a digital way, but over this last year we’ve seen that doing a retrospective, a pair-programming session, or grabbing a drink in real life is much more fun. That’s why we like everybody to be in the Rotterdam office at least 4-8 days a month on average. Together with your manager, you decide how often you and your team really meet in the office.
Besides that it’s much more fun to see each other in real life, there are also some tax regulations that make it hard to work from abroad.
For a lot of vacancies, we have the possibility to help you (and your family) to relocate to the Netherlands. Visit our relocation page for more information about moving to the Netherlands. -
How often do I go to the office?
Together with your manager, you decide how many days you and your team will be in the office. On average, this will be at least 4-8 times a month.
-
Do you help new colleagues relocate?
Yes, we do this for most vacancies. If the vacancy you’re interested in has a relocation sign on top, it means we’ll help you (and your direct family) to relocate. You can find more information on our relocation page.
Do I need to live in Rotterdam when I move to the Netherlands?
No, that’s not necessary. The Netherlands is a small country, so if you want to live in Amsterdam, Utrecht, or Tilburg, that’s okay. As long as you are able to meet your team in the Rotterdam office around 4-8 times a month, you can live wherever you want.
-
Can I keep developing myself?
Coolblue University: learning at Coolblue, in a different way.
With over 30 training courses in our own Coolblue University, you can get a little bit better every day. At Coolblue, we go back to school sometimes. But not by sitting there quietly and just listening. The training courses aren't boring, but interactive. You have to do exercises and have discussions with others. At the Coolblue University, we choose what we want to learn, so we can continue to develop en become real experts. For example, a Delivery Driver needs different training courses than a Customer Service Employe and a starter needs different courses than a manager.
