The posting

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

Wheely is launching in Los Angeles, and we're hiring the General Manager who will get us there. You'll join ahead of launch: building the founding team, securing the fleet and chauffeurs, establishing the operation, and preparing for the first ride. From there, you own the P&L and the brand in Los Angeles: service standards, growth, clients, partnerships, and team. You'll report directly to our CEO and work alongside the team behind our US expansion.

We're accelerating our US rollout following the successful launch of New York, with Los Angeles as our next major market. LA is one of the world's most important luxury and entertainment hubs, home to global studios, talent agencies, private aviation, and some of the most prestigious events in the world. With major upcoming moments including the Super Bowl in 2027 and the LA Olympics in 2028, this is a unique opportunity to build Wheely's presence in one of the most strategically important markets for our US expansion.

We're looking for an operator who has launched or scaled a market before and who can move fast without losing the polish that defines Wheely. Seven-plus years of operating experience; backgrounds in investment banking or consulting are a plus, but not a substitute for hands-on operating experience. Los Angeles residency is required.

Responsibilities

  • P&L responsibility for Los Angeles
  • The offline product: pricing, availability and fleet composition
  • Four local teams Driver Operations Quality & Training (our Chauffeur Academy) Sales (Wheely for Business) Marketing
  • Launch and expansion strategy across Los Angeles and surrounding markets
  • Drive business development, identifying and capitalising on new opportunities for growth and partnerships
  • Collaboration with central Product team on the passenger and chauffeur experience
  • Regulatory strategy: navigating California's licensing and compliance landscape
  • External representation: press, partnerships and key stakeholder engagement

Requirements

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in STEM or Economics from a leading university
  • Minimum 7 years of total experience, including 5+ years in either high-growth tech, investment banking, strategy consulting, VC or private equity
  • Excellent leadership and team management skills
  • Strong analytical / problem-solving skills
  • Professional fluency in English
  • Based in Los Angeles

What We Offer

  • Base salary starting from $210,000 per year, plus annual bonus and equity in a high-growth scale-up
  • Comprehensive benefits package, including health coverage and other benefits designed to support your wellbeing
  • Monthly credit for journeys with Wheely, allowing you to experience our service as a passenger and stay closely connected to the product
  • Office-based role in Los Angeles

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
