Meet the team!
You’ll be joining our Workplace Experience team, the group responsible for shaping how Preplers connect, collaborate, and experience our culture across our office hubs.
The team works at the intersection of strategy, operations, and experience design, partnering closely with People & Culture, Employer Brand, and teams across the company. You’ll work hand in hand with our Senior Manager of Workplace Experience, co-owning our community and event strategy, and collaborate closely with our Workplace Experience Specialist to bring engaging events to life in our hubs in Barcelona, London, and Kyiv.
Our mission is simple but ambitious: to create meaningful moments that reflect Preply’s culture and support high performance, belonging, and connection.
What you’ll be doing
* Co-own the end-to-end strategy and delivery of Preply’s flagship and large-scale events, such as One Preply, Chapter Offsites, and monthly community moments.
* Take hands‑on ownership of event execution, with primary responsibility for organising and delivering events in our Barcelona hub, while supporting delivery across London and Kyiv.
* Define, manage, and continuously evolve the community event strategy across all Preply hubs, ensuring consistency, quality, and room for local experimentation.
* Translate Preply’s mission (Powering people’s progress), principles, and business priorities into engaging, high‑quality event experiences.
* Plan and manage all operational aspects of events: timelines, logistics, run‑of‑show, venues, vendors, and on‑site delivery.
* Act as a key operational decision‑maker during live events, ensuring smooth execution and excellent participant experience.
* Partner cross‑functionally with People teams, Employer Brand, and other stakeholders to align events with company priorities.
* Manage event budgets, suppliers, and tools, ensuring strong financial discipline and quality delivery.
* Track engagement and feedback metrics, run post‑event retrospectives, and continuously improve formats and processes.
* Contribute to building scalable playbooks, standards, and best practices within the Workplace Experience team.
What you need to succeed
* 5–8+ years of experience in events, community, workplace experience, employee engagement, or employer branding, with clear end‑to‑end ownership of complex initiatives.
* Proven experience delivering large‑scale, high‑visibility events, including hands‑on operational execution.
* Strong experience working in European contexts, with familiarity sourcing venues and managing suppliers in major cities such as Barcelona, London, or comparable hubs.
* A highly developed execution mindset: detail‑oriented, calm under pressure, and comfortable making real‑time decisions.
* Ability to think strategically while staying deeply involved in delivery.
* Confidence partnering with senior stakeholders.
* Experience managing budgets, vendors, and event tools.
* A collaborative, proactive approach and a strong sense of ownership.
