Requirements

You'll be jumping into a “team of 1” role in a fast moving organization - perseverance and the ability to create progress independently will be critical. • Ability to Build and Adapt Quickly: Desire and ability to quickly build strong and trusting relationships, influence, and collaborate effectively across all levels of the organization. Follow-through, ability to move quickly, and ability to manage several priorities and projects at one time will be needed.

One of our favorite user quotes: “I hate quoting an old, overused cliche, but I’ve been very lost. And I think for the first time in a while I may be found.” • Ownership: You’ll report to our CFO & Co-Founder and will be in charge of all of the company’s financial modeling. You will be working on materials that will drive our operational decision making and that will be presented to our Board of Directors. • Growth: You’ll get to journey with a VC-backed Silicon Valley startup that is still growing extremely quickly. Every employee is a core team member who is expected to help build the company as a whole, but you’ll play a unique role in helping shape the future of the organization. • Flexibility: HQ will be in Chicago with the full team and would love to have everyone there. That being said, we’re super flexible with location / hours; don’t care when or where you work - just that it gets done. • Comp: We will pay competitive market rates in terms of equity, cash, & benefits.
