Right away, we’ve listed what we think you’ll be spending your time on. We’re growing fast, and growth means the challenges we’ll work on together will change as we lead Loop through new and different phases.
This is an indispensable role with us, so we’ll be looking for you to have examples of when you’ve tackled these challenges throughout your career. We’ve laid out the experience we think is important to set you up for success in this role. But, we appreciate that different humans will solve problems in different ways, so we don’t expect you to fit exactly in a box of requirements.

- Communication is your superpower - you should impress others with your style, thoroughness and frequency of communication through email, call, video, chat, you name it!
- Even the smallest of details don’t pass by you. Your coworkers have described you as more organized and detailed than all others.
- Experience tackling ambiguous special projects - you can take an idea and turn it into action.
- You’ve created noteworthy relationships with your internal and external partners, and earned yourself a reputation of being one of their favorite people to work with.
- You have a tried and true, high-touch method for keeping the CEO’s schedule moving smoothly in a remote-first environment.
- You operate with a high level of agency, and are comfortable navigating ambiguity to make sound decisions.
- Have been accountable for confidential and sensitive information, and handled it flawlessly.

In a perfect world, Loop wouldn't exist. If we had our way, we'd live in a world where we're mindful about how we consume, we love every product we own, and we share values with the brands who create them. In reality, commerce isn't perfect and often breaks. Loop creates second chances.
We're starting by revolutionizing the post-purchase experience. We've taken one of the most fragile commerce interactions - returns - and turned it into something consumers actually love, and that deepens our connection to brands and products.
We take connection seriously on the inside, too. We're building a work experience that allows you to Be A Human First and prioritizes empathy and wellbeing. We view Loop as a special place in your career to shape the future of an industry and become a better person while doing it. You can grow faster here in a shorter amount of time - we'll give you space and trust you to fill it.
