  • Support in coordinating travel, schedules, and documentation for management and team members.
  • Support internal communication, document organisation, and workflow efficiency.
  • Be a central link between strategic, operational, and analytical functions.

Who You Are:

  • A self-starter with a hands-on attitude. You don’t wait to be told what to do; you see what needs to be done and take initiative.
  • Someone who believes in growing with the company, not just working for it.
  • Entrepreneurial and curious. You want to understand how the business works and how to make it better.

  • A team player with excellent communication and coordination skills.
  • Comfortable with flexibility. Working internationally means schedules vary (sometimes early, sometimes late).

Requirements:

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree preferred, but not mandatory. Talent, mindset, and motivation matter more.
  • We do not ask for experience in a versatile role such as business operations, strategy, finance, or data analysis, but we do need you to be sure that you are up for the task.
