General Manager Uber
THIS JOB HAS EXPIRED
The City General Manager at Uber is by far the most demanding position Uber has to offer; it requires such a degree of talent, guts and leadership that the right person is difficult to find. As the leader of Uber in each city, the GM is responsible for the development and growth of our business in one of the major cities in the U.S. You are literally rolling out a new transportation system in your local metropolis.
UBER'S CORE
The core of Uber is in the city team, led by a General Manager. They make the magic that is Uber a reality. It?s a big deal, and the qualities and capabilities required of an Uber GM mean you are an incredibly intelligent, talented and highly sought-after professional. Sound like you?
WHAT YOU NEED

But as the city lead, you?ll also be responsible for operational excellence and maintaining ?Uber? quality throughout the rider?s experience. Customer support, local marketing, supply chain management, service quality management, social media, PR ? all of these sit under the GM. Continual improvement and a quality focus are the name of the game. We believe in solving local problems with local solutions, so understanding your market and delivering custom messages is important. This is where creativity meets analytics head on.
And it?s the cross of the analytical with the creative that makes the Uber GM an incredibly difficult job to fill. If you?re potentially one of the truly rare, gifted Uber GMs, I want to hear from you! I will personally review every resume submitted.

Work with Uber?s Launch team to launch Uber in your city
