As Uber continues to grow around the world, the Uber Cleveland Team has been doing a lot of growing too. We thought it was about time to introduce ourselves and paint a better picture of what we’re up to in Believeland.
We are on the ground with a three-person marketing team creating awesome local partnerships and supporting riders, a three-person operations and logistics team who support drivers in-person and behind the scenes, and a general manager leading the team with an intense focus and vision for what’s ahead.
