hackajob is collaborating with Conveo.ai to connect them with exceptional professionals for this role. What we are building at Conveo Conveo is the AI research platform enabling fast, affordable, and high-quality consumer / B2B research. Global brands use our AI video interviewer to generate insights across marketing, product, and research teams. What problem are we solving and why is this an important problem to solve The current/traditional research methods companies rely on are slow, expensive, and superficial, thereby limiting the quantity and quality of research companies can conduct. Running great research also requires expertise which is a blocker to many companies. That directly affects how well companies understand their customers and how well they can serve them. The team you will join You will join an extremely talented team of incredibly passionate, high-energy people. We go the extra mile while having the best time of our lives. Our team has the combination of decades of market research knowledge, incredible engineering ability, and experience building companies. How we operate We truly care about our clients and the problem we solve. That means we humbly go the extra mile every time. We work hard and we have fun. To keep our quality bar incredibly high, we want to execute with the smallest possible team. About the Role We are winning Fortune 500 clients at warp speed while expanding internationally and growing our team. As Finance & Strategy Associate, you will work directly with the founders and leadership on the numbers behind every major decision - combining hands-on financial operations with the strategic analyses that shape how Conveo scales through Series B and beyond. In this role, you'll start by being the operator and guardian of Conveo's financials , work directly with founders and leadership across all divisions, and drive the discussions for every significant call on capital, revenue and expenses, hiring, and growth. In other words, you will be Conveo's architect that knows every figure of Conveo's financials. This role is for a generalist willing to drive financial and strategic decision-making - someone who moves comfortably between owning the numbers and shaping the decisions behind them. The early months will be predominantly finance-focused whilst operating, building, and scaling the finance function and reporting directly to the CFO. However, the role also has potential to focus more pure strategic aspects. How much you lean into broader strategy and GTM work over time will depend on business needs as well as your own aspirations and capabilities.

hackajob is collaborating with Conveo.ai to connect them with exceptional professionals for this role. What we are building at Conveo Conveo is the AI research platform enabling fast, affordable, and high-quality consumer / B2B research. Global brands use our AI video interviewer to generate insights across marketing, product, and research teams. What problem are we solving and why is this an important problem to solve The current/traditional research methods companies rely on are slow, expensive, and superficial, thereby limiting the quantity and quality of research companies can conduct. Running great research also requires expertise which is a blocker to many companies. That directly affects how well companies understand their customers and how well they can serve them. The team you will join You will join an extremely talented team of incredibly passionate, high-energy people. We go the extra mile while having the best time of our lives. Our team has the combination of decades of market research knowledge, incredible engineering ability, and experience building companies. How we operate We truly care about our clients and the problem we solve. That means we humbly go the extra mile every time. We work hard and we have fun. To keep our quality bar incredibly high, we want to execute with the smallest possible team. About the Role We are winning Fortune 500 clients at warp speed while expanding internationally and growing our team. As Finance & Strategy Associate, you will work directly with the founders and leadership on the numbers behind every major decision - combining hands-on financial operations with the strategic analyses that shape how Conveo scales through Series B and beyond. In this role, you'll start by being the operator and guardian of Conveo's financials , work directly with founders and leadership across all divisions, and drive the discussions for every significant call on capital, revenue and expenses, hiring, and growth. In other words, you will be Conveo's architect that knows every figure of Conveo's financials. This role is for a generalist willing to drive financial and strategic decision-making - someone who moves comfortably between owning the numbers and shaping the decisions behind them. The early months will be predominantly finance-focused whilst operating, building, and scaling the finance function and reporting directly to the CFO. However, the role also has potential to focus more pure strategic aspects. How much you lean into broader strategy and GTM work over time will depend on business needs as well as your own aspirations and capabilities.
