🎤 Founders Associate - a letter from the person you'd work withMost job ads are written by no one, for everyone.
I want to do this differently.
I'm Marius, Chief of Staff at voize.
This role reports to me, and whoever takes it will work more closely with me than anyone else in the company.
So instead of a template, here's what this job is, how I work, and how you can decide whether you'd want to work with me.
💡 What this job actually isvoize is growing fast, and fast-growing companies produce a specific kind of work: topics that matter but belong to no one.
A new market needs operational groundwork.
An org-wide process needs to be built.
A decision needs a sharp analysis behind it.
We're building a CEO Office to own exactly this work.
You'd be its first hire.
I’ll be honest.
One week you’re working on a question that I and the rest of the management team will decide the company’s direction on.
The next you're doing operational groundwork nobody will ever applaud.
Both matter equally, it's the nature of building an early-stage company.
If you need every task to feel glamorous, stop reading here.
If "done" is your favorite word, keep going.
To make it concrete, your first months could look like this: you own the operational groundwork for one of our new markets end-to-end - research, vendor and partner setup, local operations - until things simply run.
And you build one company-wide process from scratch, for example how cross-functional projects get scoped, prioritized, and tracked, and roll it out across the org.
Different altitude, same job: you drive it to done.
🚀 How I workI give trust and autonomy by default.
The way I see my job as a manager: set goals you can actually reach, give you the resources to get there, unblock you when you're stuck, teach you what I know - and then get out of the way.
I care about outcomes, not hours.
The flip side: you'll get a lot of freedom and little oversight.
That's a gift if you work autonomously, and a problem if y.
