• You bring commercial judgement and confidence to make good decisions, even when there isn't a playbook.

• You're equally comfortable shaping a team structure and getting into the detail of an offer letter or HRIS update.

• You build trust quickly, communicate clearly and work well with a remote manager and a team across time zones.

• You have experience in a high-growth start-up or scale-up. CPG experience is strongly preferred.
