Key aspects of this role

This is an excellent entry level role for someone eager to get their foot in the door of a growing startup.

• Executive in Training - You’ll work directly with our CEO and leaders of the business in a rapidly growing scale-up. This will be better than an MBA!
• General - Admin tasks such as managing travel, calendars, event planning, meeting prep, ordering equipment and notes (we all do admin, even the CEO/Founders, we’re big believers in a do-er mindset)
• Departmental - Assist various departments (Sales, Customer Success, Marketing, Product) to help with their admin and organise systems & processes to work faster and smarter
• Operations - You’ll gain experience across every business function, including international market expansion, finance etc.
• People - Assist in hiring, enabling/training new employees & managing our cultural activities

You’re ideal for the role if you are…

• Highly motivated - ambitious to learn, grow & develop as a professional (attitude over existing skill set)
• Excited by organisation & improving efficiency - excited to take ownership of organisation & motivated to help us build out more scalable ways of working
• Mission-driven - motivated by joining a small, close-knit team, getting in at ground level and growing with a rapidly scaling startup
• A great communicator - Excellent verbal and written communication skills - solid at managing up.
• Personal responsibility & sense of urgency - you’re results-obsessed & biased towards action
• A growth mindset - we’re always hungry to improve and want you to contribute to this

Our culture

• Remote First - work from anywhere in Australia - we were remote-first before Covid, have established processes around collaboration/culture to ensure inclusiveness & engagement.
• Socials - We have regular online social events & hold annual off-sites (in person).
