Head of Market Launch in Abbeyville, Colorado at PadSplit

PadSplit is entering new markets faster than ever, and we need a leader who can build the repeatable system that turns every new launch into a thriving, self-sustaining marketplace.

You love creating order from ambiguity, know how to launch new markets from the ground up, and have a track record of building partnerships and systems that continue producing results long after you've stepped away. You're energized by ambitious growth goals, thrive in cross-functional environments, and enjoy developing teams while solving complex marketplace challenges.
