JOB TITLE: Managing Partner/Head of Operations

LOCATION: Remote

——————————

Want to join the ground floor of a startup with aspirations to positively impacting millions by rethinking how great companies hire talent and how great talent chooses the right career? Interested in re-inventing the traditional recruiting industry, through a combination of technology, process and truly caring about people? Are you a seasoned operator or entrepreneur with expertise + a proven track record—who's ready to join forces and scale something that benefits real people, every day?

ABOUT AVRA: 

At AVRA we believe in the power of meaningful work. We believe that meaningful work creates community, improves individual's self-esteem and when done in service of a higher purpose can positively impact the world. We want a future where everyone who wants to work, is able to work.  We believe there is a right job for every person and the right person for every job. We believe that by providing meaningful jobs, companies can positively impact their workers, their community and their world.

We are approaching our massive vision pragmatically. The first step is AVRA Talent Partners, founded in January of 2018, which has already helped 25+ fast-growing startups hire amazing non-technical talent across a variety of roles and regions. This hands-on business allows us to look “under the hood” of growing companies and find blue ocean opportunities within the world of work.

WHY THIS ROLE EXISTS: 

Reporting to the CEO + Founder, the Managing Partner will be the person who oversees all the major operating functions of the business. Your focus will be on revenue and operations and the CEO will focus on the product and people side of the business. Together, you will work on improving our current recruiting offering, growing a world-class remote team to service our clients, and launching new highly-targeted products within the “world of work” (e.g. open-source ATS, recruiting services specifically for franchise owners, recession-proof offerings, etc); this partnership will drive massive success for AVRA + positively impact the lives of millions.

WHAT'S IN IT FOR ME?:

Join us at the ground floor of a bootstrapped and profitable business started by a founder who has scaled her last team to 450-remote workers/$10M in revenue and experienced the good, the bad, and the ugly of funded + self-funded startups. You will shape and guide an organization whose overarching goal is massive but is being achieved through a pragmatic lens. We're running a marathon, not a sprint.
