Founding Go-To-Market Lead at Marloo — VC-backed AI fintech
Marloo is heading to the US, and we're looking for a Founding GTM Lead to spearhead our expansion. Backed by Blackbird Ventures, we've already proven our AI assistant for financial advisers across the UK, AU, and NZ—now it's time to tackle the world's largest wealth management market. If you have 3+ years of experience in the US RIA or broker-dealer ecosystem and want a founding-level role with significant equity, this is your chance to move from the 'doer' to the 'architect' of a global fintech success story.
