🇫🇷 Right-Hand CEO (French Fluent)

Wait a minute.

Deep inside you are looking for a new adventure with…

• 🗽 Freedom: feeling free to work remotely or hybrid and being trusted to deliver

• 🔥 Ambition: growing up surrounded by smart colleagues driven to create an iconic brand like Nike

• 😍 Impact: contributing to transform people lives at scale and feel your own impact in the company

Not just another job. You’re craving intensity. Growth. A real seat at the table. You want to leave your fingerprints on a start up that’s scaling —and help build an iconic brand that changes lives at scale.

If you want something comfortable, stable, and slow… this is not for you.

Do you love the idea of being the strategic right hand to a high-performance CEO, operating at breakneck speed, and helping scale an ambitious company that’s reinventing how people learn, grow, and lead—Do you want to contribute to impacting the lives of thousands of people?

YES - Then keep reading.

Oh, and let’s get one thing straight from the start:

✅ A deep, genuine interest in AI is absolutely non-negotiable.

We’re obsessed with how AI can enhance productivity, learning, and creativity. If you’re not already experimenting with GPTs, AI tools, and automation stacks for fun… this isn’t your tribe.

This is a full-time position, carried out from our beautiful offices in Dubai or full-remote from anywhere in the world (with frequent travels to Dubaï).

French and English fluency is required.

-------------------------------

Our sources of inspiration are Apple, Nike, Spotify, Disney for their obsession of excelling, having a worldwide impact and not just selling products but crafting experiences. You will be playing a pivotal role in making Paradox play at that level and becoming an iconic brand.

For us, being Iconic is to innovate at the intersection of Psychology x Creativity x Technology.

You’ll be at the heart of Paradox’s growth engine, working hand-in-hand with the CEO to build and scale the systems, team, and operations that power our global ambitions.

To do so, here are your 5 main responsibilities :

From growth hacks to operational buildouts, you’ll own entire strategic projects.

Think:

• Building a cold outreach engine or international brand partnerships
  

• Setting up sponsorships for our YouTube & events
  

• Testing acquisition channels & AI-powered growth playbooks
  

• Sourcing elite talent & streamlining HR processes
  

• Helping secure and negotiate deals
  

We move fast, but we want to move even faster. You’ll help drive international launches, MVP tests, and new product initiatives… with autonomy and speed.

Market research, growth models, biz dev, M&A scouting, dashboards, KPI tracking—you’ll help the CEO & GM make data-backed, high-leverage decisions.

Design workflows, implement automations, and optimize every process. From Airtable to Notion to AI-powered dashboards—you’ll be our internal COO meets Growth Architect.

We want to scale with AI baked into our DNA. You’ll:

• Champion new AI tools & use cases
  

• Train internal teams to adopt AI-first processes
  

• Benchmark AI integrations across content, marketing, ops, product
  

• Stay 10 steps ahead on what’s possible
  

Let’s not waste time. This is not for everyone. We’re looking for someone elite—both in mindset and execution. If this sounds like you, read on:

• You likely come from a top-tier business or engineering school (HEC, ESSEC, X, Sciences Po, Stanford… you get the idea).

• You’ve already built or scaled something—startup, ops team, or growth engine.

• You’re driven with a strong work ethic – you show up with commitment, perseverance, and thrive under pressure.

• You have a true entrepreneurial spirit – you can own projects from scratch, work with limited resources, and get your hands dirty to make things happen.

• You execute relentlessly – a pragmatic problem-solver who thrives on ownership, not hand-holding.

• You’re obsessed with growth – both personal and team-wide – and love learning, building, and optimizing.

• You embrace growth over ego – open to feedback, eager to improve, and driven by progress, not praise.

• You’re analytical, autonomous, and fast, with a natural ability to structure systems and automate for scale.

• You’re tech-savvy and either already AI-native or actively becoming one—AI is your playground.

• You’re naturally persuasive – you love influence, sales, negotiation, and can align others without force.

• You excel in communication, both written and verbal, and tailor your message to your audience.

• You’ll be working directly with a CEO who has extreme work ethic, expects excellence, and gives massive ownership. If that energizes rather than intimidates you, you’re in the right place.

English: fluent. You can hold a conversation on specific details with English-speaking colleagues. Our chosen language for written communication is English.

French: ideally bilingual.

Currently, 20% of the team is International, from the cherry blossoms of Japan, the Canadian lakes and to the forest of Madagascar.

Let’s be clear, we are looking for someone who is not just Great, and for whom Paradox ambition isn’t just another cool project; but a true mission.

So if those personal interests : personal development / coaching / professional growth / education / edtech / teaching / edutainment are not things you REALLY love, let’s forget it!

Let’s forget about it also if,

• You don’t like to be challenged and grow in your job

• You don't like receiving or giving tough feedbacks

• You don’t question the status quo: the process are there for a reason, we have always done it this way

• You like to have very specific & fixed tasks assigned to you. Be told what to do and how to do it.

• Your only driver is joining a full-remote company: yes, our company culture is cool, but we want people to care about our mission, products, and their job!

🏅 We hire only the best, it’s exhilarating to be surrounded by A-players who strive to perform whilst being in a good mood. You'll be working with some of the best minds. We understand that "A" people attract "A" people.

🏋️‍♀️ No more bosses, but ongoing conversations to support your professional development.

-------------------------------

At Paradox, we are convinced that people do not want “just a job” anymore.

We are all craving to have an impact through our professional journey. Some want to start their own venture, some want to become an intrapreneur in their current organization, some others just want their day-to-day tasks to have more meaning.

🎯 PARADOX HAS ONE GOAL: TO EMPOWER PEOPLE AND ORGANIZATIONS TO LIVE THEIR TRUE AMBITIONS.

But where do we start?

If you have an interest in personal development, you probably already know that:

• Making things happen is a real struggle when you don’t know what truly inspires you and how to get there ;

• Available resources are either boring 😴 or full of crazy unsubstantiated theories 🤪.

It needs to change, and we’re here to make it happen!

⭐️ OUR AMBITION IS TO MAKE SUCCESS THE ONLY POSSIBLE OUTCOME FOR OUR CLIENTS (WHATEVER SUCCESS MEANS FOR THEM), BY CRAFTING INNOVATIVE & CAPTIVATING BREAKTHROUGH EXPERIENCES.

In other words, we want to make personal growth as entertaining as watching Netflix.

How, you might be wondering?

• We travel the world and surround ourselves with top entrepreneurs (Richard Branson - Founder of Virgin, Marc Simoncini - Founder of Meeting, Fred Mazzella - Founder of BlablaCar), world athletes (Tony Parker - Hall of fame NBA Player, Frederick Bousquet - World record in 50m free swimming, Frank Leboeuf - WorldCup Footballer), and artists (Gad Elmaleh - Comedian, Franck Dubosc, Barry Osborne - Producer of Lord of the Rings and Matrix) ✊;

• We reverse engineer their strategies for achieving success and fulfillment and lean on the latest researches about neurosciences ⚙️;

• We deliver trainings & educational contents around Power Skills (critical thinking, productivity, leadership, public speaking, coaching, stress management, etc.), self-growth and performance, through a balanced set of e-learning programs, events and edutainment videos 💡.

From one well-known Founder to a team of +40 people today (and counting!), this approach has paid off and enabled us to exceed 2 million followers on social networks, and to have thousands of people attending our online events and training courses.

🔥 TOGETHER, WE ARE DRIVEN BY ONE DREAM:

1. Helping 100 000 people achieve their dream and display their pictures on what we call the “100 000 dreams wall” ;

2. Giving our clients access to constant personal growth by reinventing their learning experience ;

3. Leverage AI and other technology to provide an outstanding customized experience to millions of people for them to transform their lives.

And that’s where you come in. Join the Paradox Revolution !
