About the role

We’re hiring a Director of Accounting / Controller to help lead Preply through its next phase of growth and build the accounting foundation required for IPO readiness.

This is not a steady-state role. Preply has scaled rapidly - and now needs to upgrade its accounting infrastructure, processes, and team to public-company standards. You will lead that transformation.

You’ll partner closely with the VP Accounting and CFO to build a function that is:

• Fast (disciplined, compressed close)


• Clean (accurate, reliable financials)


• Audit-ready (SOX-compliant, externally trusted)


• AI-enabled (automated, insight-driven)

This is a high-ownership, high-impact role with direct visibility to leadership, auditors, and future public market stakeholders.
