VP Growth - Nixa.io team
Nixa.io, Norway
Job Description
At Nixa.io, we are on a global mission to change both how and where companies recruit technical talent. In fact, we want to flip the whole traditional model of recruitment. It doesn’t fit the needs of innovative and fast-growing businesses today. We are on a mission to solve two of the most common challenges of tech recruitment, the unequal distribution of talent, and the increasing time to hire across the globe.
We are solving these challenges by introducing an automated and self-service recruitment platform that enables a permanent remote hire in 2 weeks.
Nixa.io is an innovative curated job platform connecting companies with software engineers who are actively searching for permanent remote opportunities. Our technology makes it possible to reduce the time to hire from an average of 5 months in Europe to just 2 weeks. Nixa.io offers companies access to pre-vetted talents within 48 hours and facilitates a permanent hire faster than any competitor. We specialize in remote hiring to fill permanent needs, which is totally unique in Europe today.
Nixa.io is led by pioneers and thought leaders within the recruitment sector and we’re backed by industry experienced founders and investors. We're a team of 7 people working remotely across Norway, Poland, and Romania. All of the co-founders have an excellent track record within the recruitment industry and have previously built and scaled multiple companies.
Right now, we're an early-phase start-up with a huge potential in the fast-growing remote job market. We’ve actively been testing the platform for the last 12 months, and we’re already working with and hiring for global companies including Automattic, Whereby, and Pento. Our ambitions are global and we’re in a position to scale Nixa.io in an international market.
To accomplish our growth successfully, we’re in need of a VP of Growth. This is a very important role for us as you will be a co-pilot to manage all growth activities across our product, marketing, and sales teams. This is an incredible opportunity and a crucial role in our core team. You have the ability to influence and participate in an early phase start-up on a mission to disrupt traditional tech recruitment. It’s also a unique opportunity to tap into a billion-dollar market and to see clear results of your work every day.
We’re extremely proud of the work we do and it all boils down to the talented and dedicated people who make up the Nixa.io team. Do you want to be part of it?
