Job Description

Beam is pioneering an incredibly impactful and scalable new model to support disadvantaged groups into work.

Launched in late 2017 by an entrepreneur who was previously backed by investors in Facebook, Slack and Deliveroo, Beam has won Best Tech for Good in Europe and is backed by some of the world's leading investors.

Today, people have made over 40,000 donations through Beam's platform. This growth has been achieved with zero marketing spend and no hires in business development, growth or marketing.

We want to bring on one person who's beyond excited at the prospect of growing over 40,000 donations to over 40 million.

Each donation will translate directly into helping the most disadvantaged people in the UK to get back on their feet and become financially independent.

This role reports directly to the Founder and CEO.

As Business Development & Growth Lead, you will be pivotal in taking Beam to the next stage of scale and social impact.

Who are you?

You're a super smart generalist with a growth mindset.

You have a dogged determination and love running at a big challenge.

You fizz with creative ideas. But you also love making ideas happen.

You're organised and fastidious about testing the right things in the right order.

You love variety in a job - and will be as comfortable manipulating data as picking up the phone and pitching.

Requirements
