## About the role

This is a unique opportunity for an ambitious, driven individual who wants to see the inside of a fast-paced scale-up while working closely with the co-founders and senior team. The ideal candidate is someone willing to work hard, roll up their sleeves, and support the founders' priorities while learning every aspect of the business; ideal for someone who can execute at a high level across a wide range of responsibilities.

## What they're looking for

- A do-er who is comfortable rolling up your sleeves for anything from an internal slide deck to a client demo, and energized by building something from the ground up
- You take end-to-end ownership of broad, ambiguous problems and think from first principles to get to a result, without needing hand-holding
- Obsessed with outcomes: you work best when given a goal and the autonomy to find a way there, iterating scrappily and resourcefully until it's done
- Entrepreneurial and comfortable context-switching rapidly: a candidate interview, an Excel model, and a vision-pitch draft might all land in the same afternoon
- Detail-oriented and proactively communicative. You and your team are always up to date, things rarely slip, and you're already thinking three steps ahea
- 2+ years in a high-intensity, high-velocity environment — early-stage startup (founding team or first 20 employees), top-tier management consulting, investment banking, private equity, or a similarly demanding, execution-focused setting
