For now, the position is fully remote with a preference for Sydney, NSW

Our team works on AEST (CEO based in Sydney) and MST (COO based in Denver, CO).

We actively invest in personal and professional development; we apply what we teach and pride ourselves on empowerment.

We are personal-life-advocates. We work hard, and we respect what’s sacred to team members. Both founders are working parents and make it a part of our culture to respect priorities outside of work.

We value radical ownership, customer obsession, authenticity and creativity, growth mindset, and celebrating team.

We don’t think about diversity, equity, and inclusion as badges to wear. We’re on a journey as a company and as individuals to make them part of our day-to-day actions. We can’t achieve our purpose of unlocking talent potential everywhere unless we create opportunities for people and ideas from all backgrounds to thrive; to seek a more equitable way, and to help others truly belong.

Research shows that while men apply for jobs when they meet an average of 60% of the criteria, women and other minority groups tend to only apply when they check every box. So if you don't tick every single box above, but you think you would be a great fit for the role we encourage you to apply, we would LOVE to hear from you!
