Activities may include leading new business initiatives, aspects of operations, HR, or even product. The responsibilities below are some of the things that you might be involved in but should not be construed to be a fixed static set of duties for this role — it's merely a range of possibilities.

  • A history of ability to conceive and execute on meaningful initiatives
  • A history of ability to identify talent and promote it. And a corresponding ability to deselect individuals that are a poor organizational fit
  • Ability to zoom between macro and micro, and to apply elbow grease where necessary — not too proud to do "low level" work as a situation may require
  • Develop actionable business strategies and plans that ensure alignment with short-term and long-term objectives, created in tandem with Company Leadership
  • Confident decision maker, with a solid grasp of data & analytics, and performance metrics

Headquarters: San Francisco, California, United States


Imagine a product that reached over a million users without a sales team. That same product is at the edge of where careers are headed, where every person becomes their own brand with limitless growth potential ahead. That's the opportunity at vidIQ – an infinite market, a large and highly engaged customer base, and the chance to help build vidIQ's sales and growth engine from the ground up.


Intro

Why this Role?
  1. Join a truly global, remote team: Work from anywhere! Have co-workers all around the world. Get the opportunity to travel for events and company meetups.
  2. Sell a product people love that solves real problems: Creators around the world use vidIQ to manage huge 8 figure subscriber YouTube channels – but your friends and family just starting out on YouTube use it to gather ideas, find opportunities, and dig into what's working for these mega channels.
  3. Meaningfully shape our future product: As you engage with customers, you'll gain insights to help us serve them better — and work with products to inform what we do next.

Company Mission

We want to empower Creators. We help creators on their journey to being better video creators through tools and training.

Just about every single human on this planet loves to listen to stories, to experience them, and some to tell them. Because of the opportunity the internet gives us where people are able to build businesses while in the comfort of their own home, a lot of people are seeking this opportunity and many of them, with amazing stories, are giving up too fast. There's too much bad information out there on how creators become successful, how they build their audiences. vidIQ challenges this status quo by giving creators the tools and knowledge needed to grow their audiences faster by enabling them to uncover their own opportunities by just using vidIQ.

We believe that by equipping people with the best tools and education to solve their own problems, we can tackle the whole world's problems.

At vidIQ's core, it's a tool that gives creators what they need to navigate toward the success they want to have because of the tools and education made readily available.
