Location: In person, Lisbon · Type: Full-time · Compensation: €25,000 – €40,000 per year · Language: Fluent English
About us: We're a fast-growing technology company focused on B2B data. You will be employee #4 and the first person to join the founder in the Lisbon office. This role exists to take a wide range of operations work off the founder's plate so the company can move faster.
What this is: a broad, high-agency role for someone early in their career who wants to work shoulder to shoulder with a founder who went from $0 to millions in ARR in less than 2 years, fully bootstrapped. You will learn how a company is built, and grows fast. You'll touch almost everything: operations, tooling, hiring, outreach, research, and documentation. It starts as execution and coordination, and as you prove out, you grow into owning more.
What you'll do:
- Operations & tooling: set up and configure software, build and document processes, run logistics for new hires and company events, and keep things running.
- Communication & outreach: handle inbound leads over email and LinkedIn, and represent us to prospects and candidates.
- Hiring support: post job ads, manage candidate correspondence and tracking, and help with screening.
- Knowledge & research: keep the company wiki current, write clear internal guidelines, and research competitors.
Who we're looking for:
- A proactive generalist who takes initiative rather than waits to be told, and is comfortable with (and enjoys) switching between very different tasks.
- An excellent writer, a lot of this role is written communication (guidelines, wiki, lead and candidate replies, job ads).
- Tech-savvy, genuinely comfortable with software and tools — you pick up new tools fast and enjoy setting things up.
- Organized and a finisher, you drive tasks all the way to done, including the boring last part, and you keep your work tidy without being asked.
- Pro-active and always improving, not satisfied with "good enough," always looking for a better way, grounded in understanding why something works before changing it.
- Long-term and hungry, you want this role at this company as a place to grow, not a generic foot in the door.

If shortlisted, you'll be invited to a paid one-day trial in the office. We move quickly and aim to get back to every candidate in under a week.
Not sure you're qualified? Apply anyway. We don't screen on degrees or credentials - we hire on potential, motivation, and how you think. If this role excites you, we want to hear from you.
