- Support our Founder and C-Level team on any fundraising activity and investors relationship

- Manage an initial team of two and further grow it based on our needs
Requirements (aka 'what you bring to the table')
- Impressive analytical skills: not the usual “good enough analytical skills”, more like proper Goldman Sachs’ / McKinsey standards of analytical thinking
- Highest standards: impeccable attention to details and high standards approach to your work. You can read more here on what we mean by having a culture of high standards. We also embrace the leading by example approach to management and therefore require especially our senior management to keep raising the bar when it comes to output quality and standards
- Business savviness: the only way for you to excel at the job is if you are able to understand our business truly inside-out. This includes our high level strategic decision making process, the competitive arena we are in, the industry dynamics and, at a more micro level, how each function and teams impact each other. We expect you to be able to add value in pretty much all of our VP and C-Level discussions
- Highly structured and process driven, with the ability of keeping the big picture in mind: the scope of work will be very broad and you will need to prioritize what is important and optimize for it (80:20 rule).
- Highest level of integrity and trustworthiness: you will have access by definition to all of our data & information and will be trusted in making decisions which could have huge impacts on the company growth trajectory
- Ability to get sh*t done: You will enjoy delegating tasks to your teams of 30-50+ people in a few years. For now, and especially at the beginning you will need to get your hands extremely dirty and get sh*t done, at a very high level of intensity and quality. Owning the entire processes from start to finish.
- Passionate about education and obsessed about seeing our students succeeding: we are building a culture of people obsessively passionate about our mission and the impact we can have on the lives of millions of people. Hiring people with the same degree of genuine drive, makes everything much easier (and more fun)
- (bonus skill) Pre-existing accounting and ID tax regulations know-how: you will be supported by experts on both topics so it’s by no means mandatory to have worked in an accounting firm or have in-depth local tax knowledge. But since you will be overseeing such activities you need to prove us your predisposition to learn very fast and work synergistically with external subject-matter experts
- At startups of comparable size and have a track record of having built frameworks/processes/teams. Not necessarily on a VP position but definitely with some degree of seniority, having handled a few of the responsibilities mentioned above
- A few years in Investment banking or top consulting firms (McK, BCG, Bain)
Benefits
- we deeply value employee appreciation and we are going the extra mile to make everyone’s work feel appreciated and valuable
- we are creating a culture of transparency and radical, caring feedback. That is, of radical candor, keep a zero-tolerance for bad management, making coaching and mentoring one of our fundamental value, not only towards our students but also towards our employees. For a more in-depth view of the type of organization we are building, you can read some of our Founder’s thoughts on these topics
- this translates into record- high employee satisfaction (our monthly eNPS hovers on the 70-80 range), very low employees turnover and a disproportionate share of new hires coming from our employees referrals
