Meet the team!

Talent Acquisition at Preply is a high-performing, ambitious team that's deeply embedded in the business. We are obsessed with raising the bar - constantly iterating, innovating, and learning together to be best-in-class. We're technology driven, data-informed, and we think critically about our business and map, engage and prioritize according to customer and business outcomes. But we also care deeply about collaboration, thinking team-first, and supporting each other along the way. Building an iconic company should be fun 🙂.

We're now looking for a Senior Recruiter to join our Business TA team. You'll play a critical role in hiring exceptional talent across our commercial and business functions - including Finance, Strategy, People, Marketing, Brand & Sales. You'll bring deep recruiting expertise, a strategic mindset, and a love for building effective, scalable processes. This role is about more than filling roles; it's about helping shape the future of Preply's go-to-market and business organization.

What you'll be doing:

  • Lead and own end-to-end hiring for GTM, Brand, Finance, Marketing, People, and other business-critical functions, partnering closely with senior leaders.

  • Act as a strategic talent advisor: guide stakeholders on talent strategy, hiring best practices, org design, and market insights.

  • Develop and execute creative sourcing strategies to attract top-tier talent across global markets.

  • Collaborate cross-functionally with People Partners, Compensation, and Finance to align on headcount plans, compensation frameworks, and team scaling.

  • Champion structured, evidence-based hiring practices; drive consistency and quality across interview processes and decision-making.

  • Bring the Preply story to life for senior business talent; leverage your business acumen and storytelling skills.

  • Mentor and uplift the TA craft within the team; share knowledge, improve processes, and lead or contribute to key projects that raise our bar.

What you need to succeed:

  • Proven experience hiring senior G&A and Commercial talent (e.g., Finance, Strategy, Marketing, Brand, People, Sales) in a fast-paced, international, product-led tech environment.

  • Strong in-house recruiting experience; you know what great looks like when it comes to processes, systems, and stakeholder engagement.

  • Strong TA craft: you care deeply about candidate experience, know how to run a strategic search, and aren't afraid to challenge assumptions or push for excellence.

  • A love for data and insights: you know how to use metrics to tell stories, influence leaders, and drive better hiring decisions.

  • Solid understanding of equity plans, business models, and how organizations scale globally.

  • Outstanding communication and stakeholder management skills: you can influence with confidence and care and partner effectively with senior business leaders.

  • A Growth mindset: you're comfortable with ambiguity, curious, and energized by solving complex hiring challenges.

  • A team-first, low-ego approach: you're collaborative, driven, and love being part of a team that's candid, curious, and always learning.

  • You're fluent in English and ready to work from Barcelona, London, or Kyiv, or open to relocating to join us in Barcelona.

  • A generous monthly allowance for lessons on Preply.com, Learning & Development budget and time off for your self-development;
