This is a career accelerant role where you will be pushed hard, wear lots of hats across functions and will eventually pick up one of these priorities as a full-time role.

Core expectations from potential candidates are:

- Keen sense of organisation. This is a highly process oriented role which will help organise key initiatives and OKRs for the company. Being highly organised through calendars and spreadsheets will be critical to success.

- Collaborative skills. You will work closely with senior leaders and young team members with the power of the CEO office. Executing to plan while being empathetic and helpful is key.

- Bias for action. In a startup, there is little or no gap between thinking, action and impact. High levels of energy and urgency are needed.

- External orientation. Networking within the ecosystem and bringing in fresh thinking will help add significant value to the CEO and the organization.

- We are looking for candidates with 2+ years of relevant experience in a startup, consulting firm or similar role in a corporate. Quality B-school education is a plus. E-Commerce or D2C experience is invaluable.
