About the RoleThis is a true 0-to-1 operator seat sitting directly alongside the founding team of a fast-growing AI recruiting startup.

- Design and implement scalable operational processes that keep pace with rapid growth.
- Support go-to-market efforts including messaging experiments and partnership development.
- Translate real-world candidate and company feedback into actionable product priorities.

What We're Looking For- Approximately 1 to 3 years of relevant professional experience in an operator, Founder Associate, Chief of Staff, or comparable startup role.
- Substantial hands-on operations ownership, rather than a primarily product or technical background.
- Proven ability to drive outcomes end-to-end with real ownership, not just support.
- Comfort operating with ambiguity and context-switching across multiple functions at speed.
- Background at high-performance organisations such as top-tier consulting firms, large tech companies, or early-stage startups is a strong signal.
- Genuine desire to build, with a long-term goal of founding a company, becoming a GM, or stepping into an early executive role.
