This is one of those job opportunities that do not come up every day. And also, they are not for everyone.
If you are top talent, hands on, analytical, superb project manager and people person, willing to work hard (with balance) and learn a lot, this might be for you. If you are looking to grow (and are willing to make the effort it takes to grow) and care about social impact, this might be for you. If you like to earn people''s trust and see feed back as an opoortunity to grow every day, this might be for you.
Myself, as CEO, I commit to your development and growth personally. This is my passion.
