As Givt we’re looking for a Product Lead to help us establish the product/market fit of our giving solution in the U.S. You’ll be collaborating closely with the CEO and responsible for making Givt a product-led company. In that role, you’ll be responsible for the interface between continuous customer discovery and continuous product delivery for the whole company. As we’re starting out in the U.S., this will require a very hands-on approach. Once you’ve established the product-led company mindset, you’ll be the one to continue to lead us through our growth stage.

We’ve just closed our seed funding round (enough for the next 30 months) and have stable revenue from the 135,000 users of our business in the EU. We’re a team of 20, spread over the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, the United Kingdom and recently the United States. The primary focus for the company has shifted to the U.S. where your role is central to us finding the product-market fit.

As our first Product hire, there is a lot about the role you’ll need to fill in yourself, but what we do know is:

• We expect you to be an awesome communicator, constantly communicating with the development teams, the customers and other stakeholders about the product you’re excited to be building.
• We expect you to be able to strategize on product development so that you help us find our U.S. product/market-fit. You’ll be part of the leadership team alongside the Finance, People and Tech Leads, and CEO.
• We work intensely with Scrum and Agile with a strong emphasis on self-organising teams.
• We expect you to guide our development teams in designing, collecting and interpreting user feedback. Data, data, data baby!
• We expect you to be able to and dare to make tough decisions in a complex, unknown and constantly changing environment.
• We expect you to defend the client’s product needs in the rest of the organization, so the more you’re familiar with charitable giving, children’s/educational apps and non-profit organizations, the better.
• We expect you to own and develop customer personas, product roadmaps and user stories.
• To work closely with the European dev teams, frequent travel may be required. Your colleagues work in the European time zone, you are willing to adjust your working hours.
• We expect you to take leadership in all of this within our flat, open and flexible organizational culture, where you can question and be questioned from many sides and can’t just boss people around.
• To execute this role well, we think it is indispensable to have prior proven successful experience in a startup environment with responsibility for the full product development cycle. So we’re looking for at least 8 years of experience as a product manager of which 3 years in mobile app startups.

We’re building the global giving standard with an app for digital giving, focussed on the givers’ needs.

Givt is currently looking for an Oklahoma based Business Developer to lead our expansion to the United States. While we are already established as the leading giving platform in the Netherlands, the US is a new market and the Business Developer will be responsible for building relations with the first client US organizations in this discovery phase, pulling in the right kind of information to our product teams and subsequently designing and iterating on the full sales funnel.

What professional experience we’re looking for to successfully fill this role:

• You have experience in how to set up a sales approach by yourself from having done sales on a new product or in a new market.
• You know how to build trust in a client relationship.
• You have done both 0-1 sales (lead generation to cold calling) as well as the next phase of sales (negotiation and deal closing).
• For the above we think you should have at least 4 years of experience in a sales/partnership/relationship role. 
• You have experience in ‘selling’ in the church market, it’s a particular market that we move in, with particular dynamics

In addition, there are a couple of other things to be aware of:

• Our first focus at the moment is on Givt4Kids. Being a parent or educator will be very useful.
• We’re a Dutch company, so we might come across as quite blunt. If you also prefer clarity over politeness, you’ll fit right in.
• Most of our colleagues work on European time, some accommodation on working hours will be useful.
• Church happens primarily on Sunday, you’ll need to be available for part of that.

Values that guide the way we work are:

• Ownership: anyone can influence any decision in the organisation.
• Flexibility: every quarter, 2-week sprint and day the priorities can change and we adapt.
• Real collaboration: we hardly work by ourselves, we’re constantly pulling in colleagues for the task at hand
