• DO YOU RECOGNIZE YOURSELF?
• ==============================
• If you dream of a life that feels more like an adventure with its twists and turns and challenges rather than a mapped out and stable life, then this job is for you.
• Must have
• **Strong sense of service:** You love to make life easier for others.
• **Drive:** You work hard because you love it, you own things and get them done.
• **Problem Solver:** You love to execute and to make things happen, adapting your approach (influence, aggressiveness, smiling attitude, research…).
• **Thrive in chaos**: You anticipate needs, don’t need to be told what to do, are flexible and able to quickly react to last-minute changes.
• **Digital savvy**: We are quite obsessed with new digital tools.
• **Growth over Ego:** You are eager to learn, and receive hard feedback to grow. You let others speak and seek to understand their viewpoints**.**
• **Attention to detail:** You always seek excellence in everything you do.

• **Experience in a fast pace environment**.
• **Professional discretion:** You make it a priority to respect confidentiality.

• ❌ THIS JOB MIGHT NOT BE FOR YOU IF…
• =======================================
• You **don’t like to be challenged** and grow in your job
• You **don’t usually try to improve the processes** in place: if they are here, there is a reason
• You **like to have very specific tasks** assigned to you that won’t evolve in the course of a year
• You like to **be told what to do** or how to do something on a daily basis
• None of the following reflects your **personal interests**: personal development / coaching / professional growth / education / edtech / teaching / edutainment / impact startups
• **Your only driver is joining a full-remote company** or getting a visa to work in Dubaï: yes, our company culture is cool, but we want people to care about our mission, products, and their job
