Operations Associate

This is a close-proximity, high-trust role supporting the Senior Management of a dynamic Web3 and AI. You will be in the room where things happen, and expected to keep everything you see and hear strictly to yourself.

If you are sharp, self-driven, relentlessly detail-oriented, and hungry to learn some of the most exciting industries in the world, this role will accelerate your growth faster than almost anything else available to an early-career professional.

What You Will Do

• Be responsible for carrying out general day-by-day administrative office tasks

• Handle ad hoc tasks as they arise — about 40% of this role is responding to fast-moving priorities and turning them around quickly and well.

• Support the Senior Management across a portfolio of businesses — handling tasks ranging from strategic follow-ups to day-to-day operational matters with equal care and precision.

• Own project execution end-to-end: managing operational systems, tracking expenses and receipts, coordinating deliverables, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks — big or small.

• Leverage AI tools proactively and creatively to automate workflows, improve efficiency, and stay ahead of the curve — self-discovering and self-learning new tools as needed.

Who You Are

• Obsessively detail-oriented — you notice what others miss and follow through without being chased.

• Smart enough to understand the ultimate goal behind any task, not just the instructions given.

• Proactive: you surface problems before they become issues and communicate progress without being asked.

• A fast and self-directed learner — you thrive without hand-holding and get yourself up to speed quickly in unfamiliar territory.

• Discreet and trustworthy to the core. You keep information strictly confidential at all times — from everyone, including senior management and colleagues. No exceptions.

• Emotionally resilient and composed. You can deflect probing questions gracefully and hold your position under pressure without causing friction.

• Bilingual in English and Putonghua to a professional conversational standard.

• Comfortable with irregular hours, on-call availability, and occasional travel.

Background

• Fresh graduate or up to 2 years of relevant experience — what matters most is your mindset, not your CV.

• Exposure to or genuine curiosity about Web3, crypto, blockchain, AI, or FinTech is a strong plus.

• No specific technical tool requirements — but a natural affinity for technology and AI is expected.

What You Will Get

• Direct access to and personal coaching from the Senior Management of serial entrepreneurs — a rare opportunity at this career stage.

• Deep, hands-on exposure to multiple businesses in Web3 and AI.

• A front-row seat to how a multi-business SME is run at the board level.
