Growth Path
While this role is not client-facing, there are multiple pathways for growth in Vase.ai. The Operations Executive could potentially:
- Grow into a Researcher role in the Research & Customer Success team
- Advance into a Senior Executive role, overseeing and executing tasks around research design as well as reporting for clients’ research
- Move laterally into other teams within the company such as the Product team, the Panel / Fieldwork team, or the Business Development team
Watch Before You Apply
We’re not your average 9-to-5
We move fast, give honest feedback, and believe that learning never stops. We take ownership of our wins and our mistakes and we show up for each other, always.
We love working hard, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously (you’ll see that in the memes). If you’re someone who thrives on growth, loves collaborating, and doesn’t mind laughing a little while solving big problems, please proceed!
But fair warning: this role isn’t for everyone, and that’s okay.
