About The Role
As the Marketplace Operations Lead UK, you will own the economic engine of Wheely’s London business.

Responsibilities

- 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.
