Full Job Description
**ABOUT AI ACQUISITION** AI Acquisition is a bootstrapped, multi-entity business running high-velocity acquisition, coaching, SaaS, and performance marketing operations. We are founder-led, fast, and commercially driven. We build it, test it, and scale it — before others are still planning. **THE OPPORTUNITY** The founders are strong on vision, capital allocation, and commercial growth. The gap is the operating layer — management depth, accountability architecture, and the systems that allow leadership to work on the business instead of in it. We explored hiring a President. What we need is not another strategist. We need a hardcore operator who will own the P&L, build the operating system, hold the organisation accountable, and make the company more profitable. This is a role for someone who has done it before and wants to do it again at scale. **Requirements** **WHAT YOU WILL OWN** • **P &L Ownership: **Full P&L ownership across business units — you set the targets, you drive the outcomes, you own the number • **Operating System:** Build the accountability infrastructure from scratch — KPIs, scorecards, operating cadence, incentive structures, and process automations. Real systems with named outputs, not templates • **Team Performance:** Direct management of department heads and senior operators — radical clarity on expectations, consequences, and growth. You make the hard calls (exits, restructures, resets) without deferring upward • **GTM Execution:** Partner with marketing and sales leadership on pipeline, conversion, and revenue operations — you understand the levers and own them when needed • **Hiring & People Ops: **Partner with People & Talent to build management depth — you define the profiles, set the standard, hold the bar • **Founder Leverage:** Free the founders from operational management so they can focus on vision, growth, and external relationships — you are the connective tissue between strategy and execution **MUST-HAVES** • Verifiable P&L owners
