Ops Manager | Gamification + Education Startup

Gizmo is a startup on a mission to make learning so easy and fun that anyone can learn anything. We're aiming to help 1 billion people learn by building Duolingo for Anything - a gamified way of learning anything!

We're an early stage well-funded startup that's grown 10X in the last year, with a million users a month. We now need a razor-sharp operator to keep the rocket ship stable. You’ll be our first Ops hire and will work shoulder-to-shoulder with the three founders to build the people, finance and office foundations that let the product and engineering teams fly.

Responsibilities

• People Ops: own recruiting pipelines, onboarding, payroll, contracts and compliance
• Strategy: run analytics and create dashboards to keep us pointed in the right direction
• Finance: run day-to-day bookkeeping, invoices, expenses, FP&A and cash-flow forecasting; coordinate with external accountants and investors.
• Process & Compliance: design lightweight, scalable processes, keep policies tidy and accessible.

Only apply if

• You are really smart ✨
• You are highly impact focused and happy to do whatever it takes to get the business running smoothly
• You are a generalist who is also quantitative and comfortable with analytics
• You want to work hard for a chance at glory 😂
• You are a clear communicator ✅
• You've worked at a startup or started your own company
  

Nice-to-haves

• Passion for efficient learning, gamification or ed-tech
• Experience scaling headcount from ~10 to 50+

If this is you, you can expect:

• Work directly with all three founders and shape company strategy
• Hybrid: join us 4+ days per week in our London office
• Competitive salary + equity 
• A front-row seat in an early, well-funded startup that’s growing insanely fast
