[Hiring] Team Coordinator @Nascent

Role Description

You'll be the operational backbone of a high-output team — the person who makes everything around them run. As Team Coordinator you'll own a wide surface area:

• Recruiting and onboarding
• Special projects that don't have a playbook yet
• Keeping a fast-moving trading firm firing on all cylinders

This is a Swiss army knife role where the job description is "literally everything" — and you'll use AI-native tools and workflows to move at a pace that would be impossible otherwise. You'll partner directly with senior leaders, create clarity across stakeholders, and serve as the connective tissue between people, projects, and priorities. You'll thrive here if you're:

• A people-person who gets energy from enabling others
• A project manager who can hold ten threads at once
• Someone with the ambiguity tolerance to take a vague ask and turn it into a done thing

This is a genuine foot-in-the-door role for someone who wants a breakthrough career in finance and cares about being inside a fast-moving, tech-forward firm. You'll have real visibility, real ownership, and a steep learning curve — the kind of role where a fast learner with 3–5 years of experience can punch well above their weight.

Qualifications

• 3–5 years of professional experience in operations, project management, chief of staff, or a generalist role at a fast-moving startup or high-output organization (8 years max)
• Demonstrated track record of managing multiple concurrent workstreams across stakeholders without dropping balls
• Hands-on, daily use of AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, or similar) to accelerate real work
• Experience supporting recruiting processes: sourcing, scheduling, pipeline coordination, or candidate communication
• Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to synthesize ambiguity into clear action items and documentation

Requirements

• Own end-to-end coordination of recruiting efforts on the operations side — sourcing, scheduling, candidate communication, pipeline tracking, and hiring manager support
• Run day-to-day operations and administration across your team: calendaring, travel, expense coordination, vendor management, and keeping the gears turning on everything that doesn't have someone else's name on it
• Drive special projects from ambiguous ask to completed deliverable — scoping requirements, building lightweight project plans, coordinating across stakeholders, and closing loops
• Serve as the primary point of contact and enabler for your team lead, anticipating needs, clearing blockers, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks
• Use AI tools daily to accelerate your own output — drafting communications, summarizing research, building templates, automating repetitive workflows, and staying ahead of a high volume of work
• Create and maintain operational documentation, trackers, and lightweight systems that bring order to a fast-changing environment
• Coordinate across teams and functions to keep information flowing, deadlines visible, and stakeholders aligned — especially when priorities shift quickly
• Handle sensitive information with discretion and build trust as a reliable, people-first operator across the organization

Benefits

• The opportunity to learn, experiment and build in an entrepreneurial environment
• Remote-first, distributed team with frequent in-person sprints and retreats
• Competitive total comp with strong bonus upside tied to performance
• Hardware & home-office stipend, conference and learning budgets
• Comprehensive health benefits (medical/dental/vision), life insurance
• Open vacation policy as well as flexible work hours and location
• 16 weeks fully-paid parental leave + supported return to work
• Retirement matching, open vacation policy, flexible hours
