About the Role

Initia is working on an initiative in Latin America at the intersection of AI x blockchain x the real world. We're looking for a builder to own the region from day one. You'll open doors with businesses across LATAM, launch new programs with them, and grow a community of individual contributors + businesses to participate in what we're building. You'll be our first person on the ground and will shape how we operate in the region.

What You Will Be Doing:

• Partnerships: Find, pitch and close partnerships with businesses across industries such as manufacturing, logistics, hospitality, retail and multi-site business groups. Own the pipeline from first meeting to signed agreement and launched program.
• Community building: Recruit, onboard and keep a growing network of individual contributors, from skilled professionals to everyday participants. Design incentives, referral programs and community channels that keep engagement and quality high.
• Launch and operations: Stand up programs end to end, including logistics, training, scheduling, quality checks and payouts, and hit growth and quality targets.
• Local setup: Work with legal counsel and our core team on privacy and consent requirements, contributor payments, local structures and equipment logistics.
• Team building: Hire and manage early local team members as the region scales.
  • Playbook: Document what works so we can repeat it across countries.

What You Bring:

• 5+ years in business development, partnerships, marketplace operations or country launch roles at a high-growth company, ideally one that ran a workforce or contributor network (gig, delivery, mobility or data platforms).
• A track record of opening doors with large companies in LATAM and closing deals.
• Experience building and scaling a supply-side community.
• Comfort running operations hands-on.
• Fluent Spanish and English; Portuguese is a strong plus.
• Willingness to travel frequently across the region.

Even Better If You Have:

• A network across LATAM conglomerates or family-owned business groups.
