  • Growth & GTM Ownership: run outbound prospecting, pilot deployments, and early-stage demos to build multi-channel pipeline and prove product fit.
  • Commercial Ops & Feedback Loop: own CRM hygiene, pipeline reporting, AI-based sequencing, and capture customer feedback to guide roadmap.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • You are part of the founding team shaping GTM, customer success, and high level strategic decisions.
  • You’re a GTM associate working directly with the Cofounder and CEO on the highest priority initiatives each week, leading commercial ops and GTM strategy, supporting product delivery to customers, and helping build the foundations of the company.
  • [40%] Cold calling and outbound prospecting (daily dials, personalization, booking qualified meetings)
  • [30%] Deployment strategy + customer success (support pilots, sit in on demos/onboarding, capture feedback, help drive use case expansion)
  • [20%] Funnel management + GTM operations (CRM hygiene, building AI Automations for sequencing, pipeline reporting, experiment tracking, handoff notes)
  • [10%] Events, conferences, and community/network-led outreach (where relevant)
  • You’ll work directly with senior leaders at banks, PSPs, and fintech unicorns, gaining access to decision-makers and industry problems that most people your age never get to see up close.
  • 5days a week in our office in person near Waterloo St in London.

Requirements

  • 1/2yrs experience in a high-pace environment (VC backed startup, Investment Banking, Management Consulting)
  • Tier 1 uni + impressive extracurricular activity (see below side hustles as proxy)
  • Impressive side hustle (Did you build something - e.g. Ecom, or side business? What was it and how impactful was it?)

Preferred

  • Extremely Curious: We think curious people run the world. We love those who have an insatiable hunger for more knowledge… about the customer problems, domain knowledge, technical innovations or new ways to approaches to challenges.
  • Hungry and driven: We are an early stage startup… this is hard and intense work that requires you to be ready to move fast, work hard, take bets and find solutions to problems that haven’t really been solved before.
  • High emotional intelligence: You build trust fast, read the room well, and become a genuine partner and trusted advisor to customers and prospects
  • Structured thinker: You're numbers-driven and can think through a goal, break it down into actionable steps, and hold yourself accountable throughout the process.
  • A true owner: You don't wait to be told what to do. You take full responsibility for your projects from start to finish and thrive in ambiguity, finding practical solutions without overcomplicating things.
