Job Description: Founder Associate
This role is based in our London office π¬π§
We are an office-first company & believe great products are made when we are together.
Stacks is building an AI-native platform that reinvents how modern finance teams run the monthly close. The opportunity is massive: every growing company depends on accurate, timely financial data, yet most are still operating with tools and workflows built for a different era.
In just over two years, we've grown from a team of 2 to 50+ and are on a rapid trajectory. We've raised a $23M Series A led by Lightspeed Venture Partners, with General Catalyst and EQT Ventures doubling down. We're already trusted by leading European scale-ups including Cleo, Epidemic Sound, and Motorway.
Our team is a blend of finance, product, and technical experts from top-tier companies like Uber, Plaid, Miro, and Google, united by the drive to create a game-changing solution.
We're a team that is deeply customer-obsessed, plays to win, and isn't afraid to take big, bold bets. We move fast, hold a high bar, and are committed to growing together as we scale.
About the Role
Stacks is hiring a sharp, technical and curious Founder Associate who understands finance and can explain complex financial concepts in clear terms.
You'll work directly alongside our CEO, Albert, and our Marketing Lead, Irina, shaping how Albert and Stacks are seen in the world. You'll own how we communicate, especially in the small moments that add up: a LinkedIn post, a line on the website, an event topic, the next question on our podcast. You'll write in Albert's voice and build the AI workflows and automations that let one person do the work of a team.
If you read about AI and finance because you find it fascinating, love questioning experts until a complex idea clicks and then turning it into content people want to read, and automate anything you've had to do twice, this is the role for you.
π§± What You'll Do
LinkedIn and social
- Own Albert's and Stacks' LinkedIn accounts, drafting and publishing in Albert's voice
- Track what's being talked about in AI, finance and tech, and find where there is something worth talking about
- Grow the follower base and engagement among CFOs and senior finance leaders
- Own the full narrative and consistently release high-quality micro-content demonstrating deep understanding of our customers and finance space
Reasons to use Rodeo
Iβm in my final year doing Economics and I donβt know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer β it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) donβt need a masters. Letβs look at the ones youβd be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet β that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Narratives and expert network
- Own the content narratives Stacks wants to be known for, and build a network of finance and AI subject matter experts who fuel fresh ideas, sharper questions and new perspectives across everything we publish.
- Bring that network to life through our podcast and events: choosing guests and speakers, researching topics, writing questions and talking points, handling recording and event logistics, and turning every episode and event into clips, comms and follow-up content.
Content flywheel
- Take each theme across podcast, social, events and email so everything we say reinforces itself
- Write nurture emails and high-quality thought leadership content
- Work with sales so content shows up in deals and drives pipeline
Automation and AI
- Build AI workflows and automations that turn one recording or idea into posts, clips and emails with minimal manual work
- Automate event outreach, registration and follow-up
Beyond marketing and growth
Marketing and growth are where you'll start, but they won't be the only thing you do. This role is constantly evolving with the company, and you'll pick up projects across the business as priorities shift. You are a Founder Associate: when you see a gap, you move toward it.
π§© What You Need
- Technical instincts: you build with AI tools and automation platforms (Zapier, Make, n8n, Clay or similar), not just prompt a chatbot
- A voice on social: you enjoy writing for social, you have opinions, and you can pick up someone else's voice quickly
- Genuine curiosity about the space: you follow AI, finance and tech closely. You don't need to be a finance expert, but you need to be commercially literate
- Speed: you ship fast, iterate in public, and keep several workstreams running at once
- Low ego: you're happy for your best work to go out under someone else's name, and you get better with every edit
- Excellent written English: native or native-equivalent speaker
- Bonus points: you've grown an audience, for yourself or someone else, or you've built something of your own.
