About Desert Ant LabsAbout the role
You get a front-row seat at a fast-growing startup, with an experienced leadership team, super smart and driven colleagues, and the investors, partners, and candidates we work with. The work changes from week to week, so you learn a lot and grow quickly.
The role is 28-32 hours a week, with 3-4 days in our Amsterdam office. You get a lot of flexibility, and we do need you. We respect each other's time, and we work at a high pace across time zones, so working hours need to flex. That goes both ways.
What you will do- Triage what comes in for the leadership team: answer what you can, pass on the rest, and flag what's urgent.
- Handle expenses and basic financial administration.
- Help with hiring: schedule interviews, keep candidates informed, and keep each process moving.
- Work with the companies that provide services to us, from the office to our advisors.
- Organize and support our team's weekly and monthly cadence: agendas, notes, follow-ups, and reports.
- Coordinate between every part of the company, and share context so each team knows what the others are working on and what's coming.
- Represent a team well, and know when to decide and when to ask.
- Handle confidential information with care.
- Write clearly in English.
- Live in or near Amsterdam.
Start what needs starting without waiting to be asked, and finish what you start. Take on work outside your role when a project needs you.
We ship quickly, so we cut scope until only the part users notice is left. Anyone can comment on your work or redo your draft, and we say early when work isn't ready. We read that feedback as help.
We judge the work by what shipped and what changed because of it. Nobody counts hours.
