Summary

About us We're a 7-person (and growing) startup building an AI product for the insurance industry. I'm the founder, and I'm getting busy enough that I need a right-hand person to own communication — outbound and inbound — so I can focus on running the company. This starts as an assistant role, but I'm looking for someone who can grow into a team manager as we scale. If you want a job where your responsibility (and pay) grows with the company, this is it. What you'll do • Run cold outreach on LinkedIn and hunt for leads using LinkedIn Sales Navigator • Draft outbound content: cold emails, LinkedIn messages, follow-up sequences • Respond to inbound email from clients and prospects in a professional, on-brand voice • Use AI tools (ChatGPT/Claude/etc.) effectively to draft faster — but with your own judgment and editing on top • Come up with creative solutions as new needs pop up (they will, constantly) What I'm looking for • Excellent written English — this is non-negotiable, you'll be the voice of the company to clients • Comfortable with AI tools and prompt-based workflows • Proactive: you spot what needs doing and do it, rather than waiting for instructions • Reliable with client-facing communication — attention to tone, detail, and follow-through • Interest in growing into a bigger role (content lead, outreach manager, team manager) Nice to have: experience with LinkedIn Sales Navigator, cold outreach, or insurance/fintech. Pay & growth Starting at $10/hr with regularly scheduled performance reviews and raises. Up to $20/hr for the right person as you take on more responsibility. This is a real growth path, not a flat gig. To apply 1. Start your application with the words "Led Zeppelin" 2. Send 2–3 examples of your writing — outreach emails, class projects, blog posts, anything you wrote 3. In a few sentences: why does a role that grows into team management appeal to you? Bonus: Write a letter addressed to Barack Obama inviting him to my 6-year old's birthday party. Make up the party details and location. Don't use A.I. The candidate who can make it sound both serious and humorous successfully will likely get the job.
