Associate, Founder's Office

Role Summary: 

Niswey is a rapidly growing company focused on leveraging the USD 120 billion martech industry. We have marketing services as well as products built largely around the HubSpot ecosystem.

We have several products in the HubSpot marketplace and are constantly working on building new ones.

We are looking to add an Associate for the Founders’ Office. 

This role does not come with a very defined set of responsibilities and you will essentially have to be someone with proven experience of handling chaos & also who will do whatever it takes to scale Niswey with us.

This role will involve working with the founders of the company and other key management individuals on strategy, operations and growth. 

You will be required to be highly organized and have a versatile skill set to work as a generalist to solve the highest priority problems that will span across functions such as product, services, marketing, sales, legal and finance. 

An ideal opportunity for those looking for a crash course in entrepreneurship, using first principles thinking and frameworks to solve cross-functional problems for a product and services.

Role and Responsibilities:

1. You will get to work with almost all the departments of the company, for example, the sales team, the product team, the marketing team, the HR team etc. This means a bunch of different things like helping create a framework for partnerships, building an org or team chart, building a financial model, interviewing candidates, evaluating companies for acquisitions, building presentations, researching a market, bringing new team members up to speed and more.
2. Support the founder's office with key initiatives and create a structure to improve visibility and accountability across cross-functional teams.

6. Identify cross-functional synergies to help reduce the TAT of both internal and external projects. 
7. Identify ways to build a unique work environment for our team members, fostering a culture of ownership, candor, and constant learning. 
8. Eventually, you’ll be expected, as we grow, to lead a small team of people who keep our various projects on schedule and profitable.
9. Communication is going to be a big part of the role. You will act as a bridge of communication between the senior leadership and teams internally as well as with Niswey’s vendors, partners and customers.
10. You will work directly with Niswey’s co-founders, with the simple goal of saving them time. This means the level of work you'll do will only be limited by your capabilities!
