Talent acquisition partner for business functions

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.

• Own complex and hard-to-fill roles across GTM, Brand, Finance, Marketing, People, and other business-critical functions, partnering closely with senior leaders.
• Act as a strategic talent advisor: build credible relationships with leaders and guide them on talent strategy, hiring best practices, and market insights.
• Develop and execute creative sourcing strategies to attract top-tier talent across global markets, using AI and new tools to work smarter.
• Bring data into every decision: track your funnel health, conversion, and time-in-stage, and use it to diagnose what’s working and flag what isn’t.
• Champion structured, evidence-based hiring: help refine scorecards, support calibration sessions, and act as a reference point for what “good” looks like, driving consistency and quality across interviews and decisions.
• Bring the Preply story to life for senior business talent, leveraging your business acumen and storytelling skills.
• Raise the bar beyond your own roles: support process improvements, interview training, or employer branding initiatives that benefit the whole team, not just your own pipeline.

• 7+ years of hiring experience, including meaningful time as an in-house senior recruiter (or equivalent) hiring G&A and Commercial talent in a fast-paced, international, product-led tech environment.
• Strong recruiting craft: you run strategic searches end to end, with a track record on genuinely difficult, niche, or senior roles, not just high-volume mid-level hiring. You care deeply about candidate experience.
• Active sourcing ability: you don’t wait for inbound. You know how to build and run a sourcing strategy for senior, specialised business talent across global markets.
• Real stakeholder gravitas and outstanding communication skills: you partner confidently with senior leaders and can show where you’ve pushed back on requirements or the bar, not just executed on what was asked.
• High bar, high standards: you’ve worked somewhere with a genuinely selective hiring process and know what strong hiring looks like.
• Data fluency: you track and interpret your own recruiting metrics, and use them to explain decisions, diagnose problems, and influence leaders.
• AI fluency: you actively use AI to work smarter (e.g., sourcing, outreach, prep, analysis, process automation) and keep experimenting, while knowing where human judgment must stay in the loop.
• A track record of wider impact: you’ve contributed beyond your own roles through calibration, interview training, process improvement, or mentoring.
• A growth mindset: you’re comfortable with ambiguity, curious, and energized by solving complex hiring challenges.
• A team-first, low-ego approach: generous with knowledge and motivated by raising the bar for the whole function, not just closing your own roles.
• You’re fluent in English and ready to work from Barcelona, London, or Kyiv, or open to relocating to join us in Barcelona.

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