Kate Manolis HR Executive of the Year

As a long-time employee at Plenty of Fish, Kate has spent the past nearly 15 years helping drive the company to be one of the world’s largest and most popular dating apps, now available in 11 languages in more than 20 countries. She has held a variety of critical roles at the fast-growing brand, and as COO, she is proud to work with one of Vancouver’s most talented engineering teams to drive innovation with creative strategies that have powered Plenty of Fish’s growth to a user base of over 150 million.
Dedicated to Plenty of Fish’s continued transformation, Kate and team embrace and invest in new technologies to help reduce the pressures of dating. Of her many career achievements, she is most proud that the company was named one of British Columbia’s Top Employers, which recognizes the team’s commitment to making Plenty of Fish an amazing place to work.
Hiring top tech talent in such a competitive industry and market is no easy feat, but under Kate’s leadership, the company has made smart and bold hiring moves that directly impact the company’s success and innovation.
