The Opportunity

25m Supply Chain is looking for a future Founder and CEO who dreams of building a startup in the cross-border space. Your role as an Entrepreneur-in-Residence at 25m Supply Chain will be to ideate, test, and validate new ideas. You'll work closely with our team of experienced operators and executives to validate an opportunity, develop an investment case, and build the solution – leveraging our people, playbooks, process and network. We will provide you with the initial capital to get going, hands-on support in the building process (discovery, UX, engineering, product, marketing), and continued advice and guidance as you launch and scale the company.

What You'll Do

Alongside the support of our team, you will be responsible for ideating, validating, and ultimately bringing this company to market. Key responsibilities include:

• Conducting primary and secondary research on the cross-border space to identify pain points and opportunities for innovation
• Testing desirability, feasibility, and viability of hypothesized solutions
• Building the investment case for your hypothesized solution
• Developing and executing on a business model, go-to-market strategy, and product roadmap for the hypothesized solution
• Designing and executing pilots to test the MVP
• Building and managing the company P&L to ensure financial targets are met
• Hiring A+ teammates
• Leading fundraising efforts
• Taking the company from idea to unicorn!

Who You Are

• A strategist with a strong entrepreneurial spirit – you may have been a startup founder in the past, held a leadership role at a fast-growing, venture-backed startup, or been an early employee
• An experienced leader with a deep knowledge of the supply chain and logistics space. The ideal candidate will have experience in the cross-border space
• An operator and executer at heart who is highly motivated to wear many hats and scale a business from the ground up, from 0 to 1
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Product management and/or software-experience
• You don't need to have an idea for the next big thing, but it doesn't hurt! We want to know what excites you.

Individuals of all genders, race, sexual orientation, nationality, ability, veteran status, and educational background are strongly encouraged to apply. At this time, we do not sponsor applicants for work visas.

We review applications on a rolling basis. Our team carefully evaluates each application. You can expect to hear from us within 1-2 weeks if your qualifications align with our current hiring needs.
