Pinterest is hiring abroad for the first time, adding country managers in France and the UK to help grow the site's user base in Europe, according to a company spokesperson.
The new managers will build out the local Pinterest communities overseas and connect with brands and partners. Pinterest is also looking to hire marketing managers in London and Paris, and plans to open international offices after building a larger workforce outside the United States.

“The Pinterest communities in France and the United Kingdom have been growing as people find inspiration for the things they love — such as food, fashion, cars, and art — and go do those things in the real world,” said Matt Crystal, Pinterest's head of international, in a statement to Mashable.
“We’re continually refining our recommendations to deliver the most relevant and high-quality experience for pinners in these locations, and look forward to making Pinterest more personalized and relevant for people wherever they are."
The international hires come just months after Pinterest launched a French version of the site in June. Pinterest says its engagement in the UK is also increasing, with more than one million pins per day.
The company's San Francisco-based headquarters is approaching 150 employees.
