Our mission is to bridge the gap between leading global tech companies and amazing global talent. We believe everyone deserves equal access to opportunities, regardless of the country they are born in.

About the Company:

Join a fast-growing, venture-backed consumer tech company headquartered in Berlin. With a profitable business model built on affiliate-driven technology and a lean, product-led culture, the company is redefining how consumers save money online. Backed by top-tier European and US investors, they’ve built a seven-figure revenue business and are now primed for scale. If you thrive in entrepreneurial settings and want to lead a company into its next stage of growth, this is your platform.

About the Role:

As Managing Director, you will take full operational ownership of a stable and profitable tech venture. You’ll step into a high-trust, hands-on leadership role, working closely with the founder during a structured handover. With a strong product, a capable team, and a healthy balance sheet in place, your mission is to professionalise internal operations, strengthen commercial outcomes, and drive long-term growth. This is a rare opportunity to lead a well-positioned company toward even greater market success.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead daily operations across all departments, ensuring strategic alignment and operational excellence.

  • Oversee and professionalise internal systems, financial reporting, and communications to support scalability and due diligence readiness.

  • Act as the primary point of contact for investors, providing transparent updates and structured insights.

  • Manage and develop a cross-functional team including engineering, business development, and marketing talent.

  • Take ownership of the product roadmap over time, working initially alongside the founder to ensure a smooth leadership transition.

  • Optimise existing revenue channels, particularly affiliate and advertising partnerships, while exploring new commercial opportunities.

  • Coordinate marketing initiatives with external partners and freelancers to support brand and growth goals.

  • Develop and execute strategies for geographic and market expansion.

Requirements:

  • Financially literate with strong forecasting and data analysis capabilities.

  • Previous experience managing small teams in cross-functional roles.

  • Deep understanding of early-stage or lean startup environments—especially in consumer tech, affiliate, or marketplace models.

  • Based in Germany or willing to maintain a frequent and visible presence on-site in Berlin.

  • Strategic yet operationally hands-on—able to build systems while also executing them.

  • Proven ability to communicate effectively with investors, boards, and executive stakeholders.

  • Confident working with technology and product teams; able to engage meaningfully on roadmaps and features.

  • Self-motivated, structured, and pragmatic—comfortable in fast-moving, ambiguous environments.

This role suits an entrepreneurial leader with the ambition of a founder and the execution power of a seasoned operator. If you’re ready to lead a purpose-driven business through its next stage of success, we want to hear from you.

At The Global Talent Co., we are committed to creating an environment that celebrates diversity and fosters inclusivity.
