Tilt is at the forefront of commerce, building a net-new way to buy and sell online. As we enter our next phase of growth, weâre rebuilding the CEO Office and seeking a Founders Associate to work directly with the CEO on Tiltâs OS, fundraising/investor relations and special projects.
This is a rare opportunity for someone who wants not only to operate but also to build within a fast-scaling consumer tech company. You will be doing everything from creating decks to building AI automations, to shipping code in production â nothing is out of scope in this role.
Tiltâs mission is simple: Make Commerce Alive.
From static store website builders to impersonal marketplaces, today's ecosystem is aging fast. It was built for transactional experiences, not for the new generation of merchants who grow through attention, community and personality.
In the UK alone, millions of shoppers, from sneakerheads and Y2K girlies to collectors and parents, have signed up to Tilt. Our platform has helped sellers go from zero to ÂŁ1M+ in earnings, and hundreds more earn above the UK median income.
And we are just getting started.
Tilt is levelling up. We are rebuilding the CEO Office to focus on three core pillars:
You will help build the foundations to ensure the business operates at unheard-of levels. This is a very broad scope of work which covers:
Data Science/Engineering: Building the source-of-truth tables for company-wide analysis
Operations: Perfecting our operating model to capture the ideal leading indicators for growth across markets and categories
AI: Building the Git repo for Tiltâs OS
You will help Tilt bring on world-class investors and maintain strong relationships:
Monthly investor updates (clear, timely, high-signal)
Board decks, board minutes, data rooms and follow-ups
Manage fundraising processes: pitch decks, memos, supporting materials, investor CRM
