WHY YOU MIGHT *NOT* BE EXCITED ABOUT US

• We're a small team, so if you like more established companies, and structured teams, this role isn’t for you. You'll help create our company's culture.
• We're in the transition phase between startup and scaleup. Projects and priorities are likely to shift. You see this as an opportunity, not a problem.
• You should be comfortable with navigating in uncertainty.
• WeLearn is a pro-startup, pro-tech organisation. If that’s not your thing, this isn’t the place for you.
• If you got this far down the list, you must be interested. While you may not possess all of the experience and skills we are looking for, passion for the role and a strong motivation go a long way. And…you have a thirst for learning, you are ambitious, and like working with a team who shares those attributes.
