*   Making executive decisions about investments, staffing, and risk
*   Representing the company publicly and within the group

## Requirements

**Professional Background and Expertise**

*   Experience with building brand recognition and nurturing a new client base from scratch 
*   Established professional network in Australia and/or New Zealand
*   Expertise in building sales from early stage to repeatable revenue
*   Experience with public sector and regulated industry procurement and RFPs
*   Solid knowledge about open source technologies and vendors

**Leadership and Management Skills**

*   Seeing the bigger picture and thinking ahead
*   Making sound decisions and owning the outcomes
*   Building sustainable relationships and networks
*   Seizing entrepreneurial opportunities and taking calculated risks
*   Planning, allocating, monitoring and adjusting resources
*   Identifying, mitigating, and monitoring risks
*   Setting goals and monitoring progress
*   Managing tasks and optimizing workflows

## Benefits

*   **Open and Inner Source Culture:** Transparency, collaboration, and community not only shape our technology choices and business model but also define the very core of our company's identity.
*   **Attractive Working Environment:** We're a value-driven, owner-operated company with an informal atmosphere, direct and uncomplicated communication, and short decision-making paths.
*   **Growth and Training:** We are committed to our employees' growth and development, investing in their training and certifications, and providing opportunities to attend conferences.
*   **Work with Purpose:** We believe open source technologies foster innovation, transparency, and collaboration without vendor lock-in, so we can build a more open, sustainable, and inclusive digital world.
