Three businesses. Millions of users. One mandate: scale. We are looking for a General Manager to lead, Docsity,WeUni and OPIT - Open Institute of Technology, into their next chapter: bringing sharper execution, stronger structure and ambitious growth to a group already making its mark on Global EdTech.

WeUni, a B2B education and lead-generation platform serving universities and higher education institutions
OPIT – Open Institute of Technology, an accredited online higher education institution offering applied technology degrees, designed for the next generation of digital professionals

The role
Working closely with the Founder and existing leadership teams, you will own the growth trajectory and operational performance of the group. The role spans strategy and execution, product thinking and commercial leadership.

Define and execute product-led, community-led and commercially driven growth strategies across the portfolio
Strengthen engagement, retention and monetisation across the student ecosystem
Bring structure and clarity to product, marketing, sales, operations and customer experience
Build KPI frameworks, operating rhythms and scalable processes
Drive execution across product roadmaps, growth initiatives and commercial priorities
Identify and develop cross-platform synergies
Represent the group externally towards partners, institutions and stakeholders

Experience managing P&L, budgets, KPIs and cross-functional teams
Strong execution skills and the ability to turn strategy into measurable results
Understanding of AI-enabled products and how they can improve learning experiences
Exposure to B2B sales, partnerships or institutional business development
Strong people leadership and ability to manage senior, diverse teams
Excellent communication skills and international exposure
Fluency in English;

Nice to Have

Experience in EdTech, online learning or higher education

Experience with user-generated content platforms or communities
Exposure to subscription models, digital monetization or marketplace dynamics
Technical or STEM background
Experience in regulated or accreditation-driven environments

This is not a coordination role. It is an ownership role, for someone who wants to shape the next chapter of a group that is genuinely changing how students learn, connect and build their futures.
If you are motivated by scale, impact and the intersection of technology and education, we would love to hear from you!

Turin, with travel to Rome and Malta
