Meet the team
The Customer Support & Enablement team is at the heart of Preply's Customer Care organisation, responsible for delivering exceptional support at global scale. As Preply grows rapidly, this function is evolving to match that ambition, scaling how we deliver support through the right mix of internal teams, external partners, and AI-powered tooling across every layer of the operation.
As Head of Human Support & Enablement, you will own the human side of support end-to-end, reporting directly to the Director of Customer Care. You will lead and scale our global vendor partnerships, grow and develop our operational leadership, build a high-value customer engagement layer from our most experienced agents, and drive AI integration coherently across Operations, QA, Training, and Workforce Management.




This is a high-ownership role at a pivotal moment in Preply's growth - with real scope to shape how world-class customer support operates in an AI-first company.

Develop and grow the operational leadership layer within the team, building clear accountability structures, development pathways, and a strong management bench
Own our internal support and also grow our global external BPO partnerships, managing vendor relationships, performance frameworks, SLAs, KPIs, and escalation protocols across multiple geographies
Identify, develop, and structure our highest-skilled agents into a dedicated customer engagement capability focused on the most complex, high-value interactions: trust & safety cases, product fit-back, high-value customer scenarios, and save situations
Align Operations, QA, Training, and Workforce Management into one coherent function with shared goals, unified ways of working, and measurable outcomes
Own the AI strategy across the human support function, embedded across all teams (QA, WFM, Training), and agentic workflows that augment agent productivity
Drive adoption of AI tools across all supporting functions, ensuring every role is actively leveraging automation and intelligence in their day-to-day




Collaborate closely with the AI Support Delivery function to ensure the human and AI chatbot support layers operate as one seamless experience for customers
Monitor and report on SLAs, CSAT, resolution times, and other key performance metrics; build dashboards and reporting frameworks that give real-time visibility into team performance
Surface insights from human support interactions that can improve product, UX, and operational processes, and work cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Marketing, and Supply to act on them
What you need to succeed:
10+ years of experience in customer support or operations management, with at least 3 years in a senior leadership role, preferably in a fast-paced marketplace, e-commerce, or tech environment
Track record of building and leading large, distributed, global support teams across multiple regions and time zones
Proven experience managing BPO vendors or contact center partners at global scale, selecting, onboarding, and performance-managing external partners across multiple geographies
Experience leading or closely integrating QA, Training, and Workforce Management functions to the core human support operations
