About Wheely

Wheely is redefining premium transportation across major cities in Europe, the US, and the Middle East. We blend cutting-edge technology with the craft of five-star chauffeuring to deliver an experience trusted by more than 100,000 active riders and 1,200 corporate accounts.

We’re a profitable, fast-growing scale-up with $43M raised and over $100M in annual revenue. Having recently launched in New York City, we’re expanding rapidly across the US and EMEA. If you take pride in your craft and want to help shape the next chapter of our growth, we'd love to hear from you.

About The Role

As the Marketplace Operations Lead UK, you will own the economic engine of Wheely’s London business . You will balance supply and demand to ensure flawless service reliability for our clients while maximizing utilization and earnings for our chauffeurs. This is a highly analytical, high-impact role where you will design pricing strategies, optimize marketplace liquidity, and build the frameworks that scale our luxury ride-hailing product.

Responsibilities
  • Marketplace Health & Liquidity: Own core marketplace metrics including fulfillment rates, Estimated Times of Arrival (ETAs), chauffeur utilization, and cancellation rates across the market.
  • Pricing & Incentives Strategy: Develop, test, and optimize localized pricing structures, dynamic pricing (surge) algorithms, and chauffeur incentive programs to stabilize the marketplace during peak hours and high-demand events.
  • Product & Algorithm Collaboration: Partner closely with global Product, Data Science, and Engineering teams to improve matching algorithms, dispatch logic, and internal operational tooling.
Requirements

  • Technical Analytics: Advanced proficiency in SQL is strictly required. You must be comfortable querying large datasets, building your own dashboards, and conducting independent quantitative analysis.

  • Experience building and scaling operational processes, automated workflows, or analytics frameworks from scratch.
