Benefits
We champion ‘extreme ownership’ – being not just the owner of your own tasks, but a key member of a team united by, and accountable for, common goals.
We offer paid holidays (pssst...we will give you one day off extra for your birthday).
In addition, once every two months on Friday we close down all comms at Volt - a digital detox. The whole business is officially ordered to take the day off!
We offer a predominantly remote way of working, while still valuing in-person connection from time to time. If you're in or near Sydney, you’re welcome to use our beautiful co-working space whenever you like. If you're based elsewhere in the country, we’d love to get together in person at least once per quarter.
We’re open to both part-time and full-time setups. In a full-time capacity, this role would expand into a hybrid Compliance and Operations position. Please indicate in your application whether you’re looking for a part-time or full-time role.
If you want to work in a company with a great, start-up atmosphere, you don’t have to look further :)
