Bead AI is automating SOX testing with AI, providing a clear 300% ROI and reducing testing time by 70%. We have very strong early traction — we're deployed at some of the largest companies in the world, from Fortune 500s to Mag-7 — and are starting to scale.

You’ll handle everything else that keeps an early-stage company moving fast, working directly with the CEO as his force multiplier across go-to-market and operations.

What you'll do

Own the operational side of our go-to-market: account research and list building, campaign execution, and a clean, actionable CRM
Run our marketing programs end to end planning, logistics, execution, and the follow-up that turns interest into sales conversations
Support the CEO across the sales process: preparation, follow-ups, and keeping opportunities moving with audit and finance leaders at large public companies

This is a founding-team role: you take operational weight off the CEO so he can sell and build, and in return you get exposure to every part of the company — sales calls, pricing, hiring, strategy.

You are

1–3 years into your career — startup, consulting, banking, ops, or something less conventional where you clearly outperformed
AI-native: you use AI daily, you've automated real parts of your work or life, and you reach for an AI tool before a manual process every time (no coding required)
Relentlessly organized and high-agency: many threads at once, loops closed without being chased
A crisp writer. Much of this job is written communication with senior profressionals
Comfortable with ambiguity: priorities change weekly, the processes you need often don't exist until you build them

This is a great fit if you

Want a front-row seat to every function of an early-stage AI company, working directly with the founders every day
Get satisfaction from making things run — and then automating them so they run without you
Would like to move with the team to San Francisco for ~3 months in the fall 2026, with a potential path to staying longer
See "not my job" as a phrase that doesn't exist on a founding team

This won't be the right role if you

Don't want an execution-heavy role
Need structure handed to you or a manager who checks in daily
Prefer staying inside a defined lane
Don't currently have the right to work in the UK

What we offer

Compensation depends on the experience
Full medical insurance
An unrestricted AI tooling budget. We want you using the best tools available
In-person work from our London office, directly with the founding team. Then San Francisco with us in fall 2026
Real ownership from week one and a clear conversation from day one about what this role becomes as we scale
