## Job description

We power people’s progress. At Preply, we’re all about creating life-changing learning experiences. We help people discover the magic of the perfect tutor, craft a personalised learning journey, and stay motivated to keep growing. Our approach is human-led, tech-enabled - and it’s creating real impact. We’ve just reached unicorn status with a $150M Series D, accelerating our vision to transform education through human-led, AI-enhanced learning. Today, 100,000+ tutors teach 90+ languages to learners in 180 countries - and we’re only getting started. As a category-defining company, we’re shaping what the future of learning looks like at global scale. Every Preply lesson sparks change, fuels ambition, and drives progress that matters. Joining Preply means helping define the future of education at global scale, and building something that truly matters for millions of people, every day. Meet the team!

As a product team, our goal is to improve the life of our students and our tutors, drive amazing learning outcomes for our learners and enable our tutors to financially thrive through the platform. And we want to do this all while generating business value for Preply so we can help even more people! We strongly believe that we can't achieve business success without our students' and tutors' success.

What you’ll be doing:

- Own the full product lifecycle for a key area of our platform: from discovery and definition to delivery and continuous improvement. You’ll be responsible for ensuring each phase delivers value to both our users and the business.
- Define and evolve the product strategy, and roadmap: aligning broader business goals, customers, data, and internal stakeholders to set a clear direction and bring teams together to deliver on it.
- Partner closely with engineering, design, and the business to build and ship high-impact features. You’ll facilitate collaboration across disciplines, ensuring the right problems are solved with scalable, user-centered solutions.
- Prioritize initiatives effectively: making tough trade-offs, clearly articulate the reasoning behind prioritization, and ensure focus on the highest-leverage opportunities.
- Leverage qualitative and quantitative insights to inform product decisions: design and interpret experiments, conduct user research, and dig into data to validate hypotheses and identify areas for improvement.
- Define, track, and communicate product success metrics: using them to guide learning and continuous iteration, celebrate wins and drive learnings for future product improvements.
- Act as the internal champion for your product area: developing deep subject matter expertise and ensuring visibility and understanding of your product’s impact across the company.
- Help shape Preply’s growth by owning product challenges that make a difference for learners, tutors, and our business. Our Growth teams include LTV Expansion, focused on helping learners get more value from Preply and keep learning for longer, and Tutor Content, focused on helping learners discover and trust the right tutor through richer content and more personalized experiences.

What you need to succeed:

- Experience in Senior Product Management positions, in rapid-growth or evolving environments, where adaptability and focus are key.
- Ability working with data and metrics, using analytical thinking to inform decisions and identify opportunities for improvement.
- Comfortable being hands-on and collaborative, able to contribute directly to product development while also thinking strategically across the product lifecycle.
- A strong sense of empathy for customers, using deep user understanding to inform and shape product direction.
- Effective communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work well across teams and bring people along in the decision-making process.
- An eye for good design and user experience, and a desire to help create products that are not just functional but genuinely delightful to use.
- Curiosity about growth challenges across the learner and tutor journey. Experience in marketplaces, subscription products, or growth experimentation is a plus; no specific industry background is required.

Why you’ll love it at Preply:

- An open, collaborative, dynamic and diverse culture;
- A generous monthly allowance for lessons onhttp://preply.com[Preply.com](http://Preply.com), Learning & Development budget and time off for your self-development;
- A competitive financial package with equity, leave allowance and health insurance;
- Not in Barcelona? We offer an attractive relocation package to join us in our Preply Barcelona Hub
