Important Notes

- KPIs will be set collaboratively and you will be accountable for meeting them.
- We offer significant upside potential for strong performers.
- Industry expertise is not required, but passion for helping small businesses succeed online is essential.
- We welcome candidates looking for a stretch role if they can demonstrate capability.
