Job Description

This is a position for someone who wants to work directly with talented young founder/entrepreneur, get the highest quality direct mentorship, and ultimately launch a career in business.

Our CEO lives in the Portland, Maine area. We are looking for someone who will effectively be his "right hand" in all of his work. You would work in person several days a week, and handle everything from scheduling meetings to HR/recruitment and eventually, filling in on management calls.

Our CEO is intense but loves mentorship and collaboration. He is a young entrepreneur/operator that took ~$5,000 he made day trading, and bootstrapped multiple companies over the past decade to a collective valuation of over $200m, while also completing his law degree at Yale. He believes strongly in business fundamentals - and building sustainable, profitable enterprises (e.g., PE-backed companies, not VC). He is respectful and kind, but has high standards.

Responsibilities will change day-to-day and month to month, as your role is an extension of our CEO's. That said, some likely responsibilities are provided below. This is a position for someone who is extremely energetic, upbeat, hungry to learn, and ambitious, who loves talking to and meeting new people.

• Managing our CEO's schedule and appointments, to ensure he is not too overstretched
• Working with our CEO and our HR team to recruit and hire key new positions
• Filtering emails and messages, as necessary
• Traveling with our CEO to various domestic (major cities) and international (Canada, Saudi, India, UK, China, Singapore, Vietnam, NZ, Australia, etc.) locations for marketing/sales events and to develop partnerships. The extent of travel is negotiable.
• Handling follow-ups with colleagues for important projects/initiatives
• Market analysis, competitor analysis
• Some admin work - basic assistance with things like arranging travel/accommodations.
• Generally - identifying areas where you can take on responsibilities from our CEO.

Qualifications:

• Must be smart, extremely hard working, very attentive to details, and solution-oriented.
• Must be great at research, new skill acquisition, and perfecting new skills quickly. E.g., would need to be able to become an expert on college admissions in a few months.
• Sales, marketing, and BD experience are all a plus.
• Experience in higher ed or private education is a plus

Company Overview:

InGenius Prep (ingeniusprep.com) was founded 11 years ago by three law students at Harvard and Yale. In that time, the company has grown to a team of more than 350 full-time employees, 500 part-time employees, as well as 24 locations in 15 countries.

Our primary focus is assisting students in applying to U.S. Colleges and Graduate schools. Our company is fast-paced and exciting. We operate as a team, and everyone is given opportunities to advance in the organization. If you are looking for an exciting, intense, and rewarding employment opportunity, this is the place for you!

Compensation:

Depends on qualifications. Competitive. Base salary $60,000 - $80,000 plus incentives/bonuses.

Other:

Please note that our CEO works from home, where you would be provided a private office in a separate wing of the house (sounds fancier than it is, there is an office set up in a 1,000 sqft workshop, but it's comfortable, spacious, completely private, and has its own bathroom and fridge, along with a private balcony and outdoor seating). You can expect there to be one child in the home at all times, along with a golden retriever named pickle.

There is also a full commercial gym in the home with extensive equipment and a sauna, so this role comes with a gym membership.
