## About the role

We're looking for an extremely entrepreneurial operator. You’re going to be our first General Manager outside of Europe, so this is not going to be a role where you’ll follow some playbook to establish a new market: you’re going to figure out and write the playbook yourself, the hard and complicated way.

## What they're looking for

- A strong bias-to-action and getting-shit-done mentality with the required tenacity and speed. The emphasis of this role is execution, not making decks
- A strong strategic business sense. You have proven experience doing sales, pricing, negotiations, and account management. You're comfortable being responsible for the P&L of your deployments and the entire US operation
- You're an excellent communicator. You need to be comfortable chatting with people from all over the construction industry, from billionaire real estate developers to junior tradesmen on the construction site
- You have experience hiring and managing a team and you understand the importance of filtering for and instilling the right culture. You'll be responsible for hiring the initial team in the US
- Raw intellectual horsepower and eagerness to learn. We expect this role to have a steep learning curve whatever your background, and this role might in practice feel like a completely new job every 3-6 months
- Willingness for frequent travel within the US, and between the US & The Netherlands. We expect you to spend a significant amount of time in The Netherlands in the first 3-6 months for onboarding and immersion, and then likely some travel cadence after
