Who we’re looking for

We’re looking for a high‑trust operator with strong finance instincts, someone who can turn strategy into execution, build financial‑operational rigor, and act as the CEO’s multiplier across planning, cadence, and cross‑functional initiatives.

Key Responsibilities

• Support CEO & Finance team with budgeting, cashflow tracking, scenario modelling.
• Run the operating rhythm end‑to‑end: weekly exec, monthly business reviews, quarterly OKRs, systematic blocker removal.

• Proven track record in running cross‑functional projects with measurable impact.
• Strong analytical capability: advanced Excel/G‑Sheets, basic SQL/BI, fast modelling and slide‑building.
• Fluency in Italian and English.
• High trust, low ego; able to manage confidential information and challenge leaders constructively.

Nice‑to‑have

• Experience in legal‑tech, fintech, or regulated B2B services.
• Familiarity with service‑delivery KPIs and partner workflows.
• Knowledge of Notion, Airtable, Looker/Metabase, Asana/Jira, Deel.
• Exposure to board or investor reporting.

What success looks like

• Hiring and onboarding cycle time drops by 30% without increasing headcount.
• Revenue and margin forecasting accuracy within ±10% each quarter.

Compensation & Growth

• Remote‑friendly policy, learning stipend, top‑tier MacBook, optional COO mentorship budget.
• Growth path: operational ownership → multi‑function leadership → Head of Ops / COO in 2–3 years.
