Who are we?
Why should you be excited about joining us?
You'll be set up for success as a
"Founder's Office" at Miles if:
Miles Education, the Flagbearer for Accountants, is on a mission to empower
accountants worldwide and address the global shortage of skilled professionals.
With relentless dedication and a team of 600+ across India and USA, we are
shaping the future of the profession.
A clear vision and outcome-focused approach have gotten us to become the only
bootstrapped and profitable edtech startups operating at scale (current
revenues > INR 200 crores | CAGR > 100% y-o-y). So you'll be joining a team of
mission-driven professionals building one of the most valuable edtech in the
world.
We have created a unique pathway for Indian accountants to work in the US. There are
three main pillars/stakeholders (students, universities, and corporations) that we
need to manage to successfully scale this pathway. This role is positioned as a key
leadership position focusing primarily on the first pillar (students piece) where the
person will report to the Chief of Staff (CoS) and work directly with the CEO. The
individual will work collaboratively across departments, fostering cross-functional
collaboration and crafting forward-looking strategies. As the leader of this initiative,
you will play a crucial role in organizing and managing the project's timeline. This
involves developing detailed project plans, ensuring optimal resource availability
and allocation, and consistently delivering each project on time, within budget, and
in alignment with scope. This role demands enthusiasm for tackling new projects
and a willingness to take ownership. If you are passionate about driving impactful
initiatives and thrive in a leadership position, we invite you to explore this exciting
opportunity.
