Preply has one of the largest and most diverse tutor communities in online learning. As we expand into new markets, new subjects, and new learner segments, we’re focused on building the Supply foundations that make expansion work in practice - so tutors can be discovered, matched, and succeed through a clear lifecycle and high-quality experience.
As an Expansion Lead within Supply Operations, you’ll own the Supply side of Expansion end-to-end, working in close partnership with the Expansion squad and representing Supply in cross-functional planning and decisions. You’ll collaborate with Product, Data, Growth, and other Supply teams to build the foundations that make expansion work in practice - liquidity, categorisation and matching, quality definitions, and tutor lifecycle improvements for new verticals like non-language subjects and segments like kids.
