About Collective:
Collective is on a mission to redefine the way businesses-of-one work. Our technology and team of trusted advisors help members achieve financial independence by taking care of everything from business incorporation to accounting, bookkeeping, tax services, and access to a thriving community, all in one integrated platform. We believe in empowering self-employed people to enjoy the same tax savings that big companies get, so they can focus on their passion, not paperwork.
Featured in Forbes, Business Insider, Yahoo, Bloomberg, Financial Times, TechCrunch, and more. We are backed by General Catalyst, Sound Ventures (Ashton Kutcher and Guy Oseary), QED Investors, Google’s Gradient Ventures, Expa, and other investors who have financed iconic companies like YouTube, Substack, Twitch, Box, Hims, Instacart, and Lyft.
About the role:
As a Member Success Manager at Collective, you are the business owner of your book. Roughly 800 solo entrepreneurs rely on you as their trusted advisor and main point of contact. You're the client-facing representation of our team and our brand. We're looking for people who truly care about helping solopreneurs build the businesses they're betting their livelihoods on.
This is a proactive role, not a reactive one. You won't just be responding to tickets. You'll be working your book like a portfolio. Knowing who's at risk before they ask, spotting the members ready for the next step, and showing up early instead of late. The members you serve deserve someone in their corner before something goes wrong, and you'll be measured on whether you deliver that.
You'll be exposed to a wide variety of scenarios that require resourcefulness and judgment. No two days will be the same, but the work is genuinely rewarding. You are a key advisor to our entrepreneurs, and the difference you make in their year, financially and operationally, is real.
Please note: You are expected to be online and available for members 9am-5pm Pacific Time hours.
