Founder’s Associate
Build Consultancy Circle (buildpsychology.com) · Mostly remote, Lebanon · Full-time
Most first jobs put you in a corner of someone else’s system and ask you to stay there. This one puts you next to the person running the business, on the problems that actually decide whether it grows.
Who we are
Build Consultancy Circle exists to raise the standard of therapy in Lebanon and for Lebanese expats everywhere.
Finding the right therapist shouldn’t be a gamble. At Build, it isn’t. Every therapist who joins us is vetted, screened, and interviewed until only the very best remain, so patients never waste their time on the wrong help. Every patient is matched to the therapist who fits them, never randomly assigned, and every single case is supervised weekly by our clinical department. Human-first, evidence-based care, with the structure of a real organization behind every session: training, SOPs, and quality control.
That quality-first model has grown us to five clinics (Badaro, Jdeideh, Jbeil, Saida, Aley), online therapy, psychometric assessments, corporate programs, and a team of 24 therapists. Founder-led and profitable.
The role
The co-founder sets the direction. You turn it into finished projects. And your work feeds back into the direction itself: your research, numbers, and project results are what the co-founder uses to make the next decision.
This is a generalist seat, not a lane. You’ll be sent wherever the most important unsolved problem is: pricing one week, a CRM build the next, a hiring sprint after that. You’ll touch every lever of the business: traffic, conversion rate, LTV, operations, and delivery. As you learn the business, you’ll be trusted to find those problems yourself.
And the work means something. Every system you build improves the experience of real patients: better matching, proper follow-up, no one falling through the cracks. Good operations here is not an abstraction. It’s someone getting the care they need.
You won’t be handed SOPs. You’ll get direction, context, and trust. Then you’ll make sure the SOPs get built, working with the people who know each process best, so messy, undocumented work becomes systems the team can run without you.
One rule governs everything: every initiative gets tested, and data decides whether it lives or dies. Your ideas won’t sit in a document waiting for someone’s approval. They’ll be tested in the real market, with real money, within weeks.
You’ll operate as a true right hand to the co-founder. Most careers make you wait a decade for a seat like this; this role compresses it into a few years.
Your first mission
Your first weeks are spent inside the business as it runs today: the spreadsheets, the follow-ups, the monthly numbers, the parts that are held together by hand. You’ll feel where it hurts before you touch anything.
Then you take on our biggest infrastructure project: building Build’s data backbone. One connected system, from first click to last session, replacing the patchwork we run on now. You’ll own the project end to end, with direction from the co-founder and a specialist alongside you for the technical build.
This is patient experience work as much as tech work: a connected system means proper follow-up for every patient, and a way to bring back the ones who quietly dropped off instead of losing them.
Who you’ll work with
You’ll sit at the center of a small team. The sales team, who handle every new patient enquiry.
Marketing, meaning our media buyer and the co-founder himself. Our operations manager, who keeps the clinics and the schedule running. Our finance team, who you’ll work alongside on the monthly close. And our website and backend developer, who builds what you design.
You’ll also hire and manage specialists of your own, starting with the technical team who build the CRM.
Small team, no layers. You’ll speak to everyone, most weeks.
Beyond the first mission
Three things are always true in this role:
- You own the numbers the business runs on
- You build and maintain the systems behind how we operate
- You take execution off the co-founder’s plate so he can focus on growth, marketing, and strategy
Here’s where that shows up.
Systems and data
- Create and maintain the dashboards we run on (leads, bookings, ad performance, revenue) and flag what’s off before anyone asks
- Run our routine AI workflows, from monthly reports to operational audits
- Assist the co-founder with the monthly finance, accounting, and legal close
Growth
- Run market research with the co-founder: ICP mapping, competitors, offers, traffic and lead generation, branding and positioning
- Help open new marketing channels and more targeted patient segments, from research to first tests
- Design new systems (pricing and offers, team incentive structures, etc.) and sharpen existing ones (sales scripts, workflows, etc.), using AI at every step
People and coordination
- Improve how we communicate, internally and with patients, including AI agents for basic nurturing and qualification so no one waits for a reply
- Keep marketing, sales, operations, and delivery connected so no silos form
- Source and vet the freelancers and team members we hire next, and help grow our live info product
You won’t do all of this at once. We’ll point you at what matters most, and the scope grows as you do.
Who you are
- 0–2 years of experience. Fresh graduates welcome
- Exceptionally sharp. We’re hiring for raw intelligence, and with no track record to judge, your grades are how we measure it. Expect us to ask
- Engineering (or another quantitative degree) from a reputable university preferred
- Generalist by nature: you pick up new domains fast
- AI-native, not AI-curious. You already use AI tools daily and think “how do I automate this?” before “how do I do this manually”
- Genuine interest in direct response marketing and AI systems automation. Offers, funnels, copy, and workflows are the daily language of this business
- Data-first: you think in numbers, and you’d rather test than debate
- Detail-obsessed. You sweat the small stuff and never drop the ball
- You push back. When you think we’re wrong, you say so, with reasons. Then once the decision is made, you commit to it
- Coachable. You take feedback without ego and learn fast, because in the age of AI the playbook changes every quarter
- Trilingual: you work comfortably in English, French, and Arabic
- Comfortable with ambiguity: you ask the right questions and go deep, not just execute tasks
What this role is NOT
- Not a clinical role: no psychology background needed
- Not a narrow marketing job: you’ll touch everything
- Some of this job is routine: monthly closes, dashboard upkeep, recurring reports. That part is task-taking. The rest isn’t. Nobody will tell you how to do it
The practical details
- You report directly to the co-founder
- Mostly remote, with regular in-person days. Expect more of them in your first months while you learn the business, and fewer once you’re running on your own
- Standard probation period, with a written review at the end of it
- You’ll see sensitive business and patient information. Discretion is non-negotiable
What you get
- A seat next to the co-founder of a real, profitable business, and the fastest operating education you can get
- Direct mentorship from the co-founder on marketing, growth, and business building
- A launchpad into B2C (DTC): consumer services are the heart of the business, with a B2B arm and a live info product alongside
- Competitive salary
- A growth path: the role expands as the business does
