If you are not afraid but stimulated to work with a CEO who has a crazy work ethic, is not easily satisfied, thrives for excellence, and is ready to give you ownership of strategic projects, you have found the next adventure that will fulfill you.
This is a full-time position, carried out from the comfort of your living room (or wherever you want) or from our amazing offices in Dubai, Paris or Barcelona.


But maybe YOU WONDER WHAT\xe2\x80\x99S OUR STORY ?

- We are convinced that people don\xe2\x80\x99t want a job anymore!
They are thirsty for a project with meaning, either through entrepreneurship, or intrapreneurship But\xe2\x80\xa6making it happen is quite hard without finding what truly inspires you and learning the soft skills you need to get there : productivity, leadership, public speaking, coaching, stress management\xe2\x80\xa6 This is why we craft training & educational content to provide a set of tools and strategies centered around soft skills, self-growth and performance.
We deliver through apps, e-learning platforms, events and a strong social media presence. Paradox has one goal: to help people and organizations live their true ambition The challenge is that some people experience learning as boring, too hard, or on the contrary : for losers.
Yeah, we all experienced that boring teacher or stumble on this video with unsubstantiated/crazy theories It needs to change!! So we travel the world with learning designers, and researchers and surround ourselves with top entrepreneurs ( Richard Branson, Marc Simoncini, Fred Mazzella ), top athletes (Fred Bousquet, Frank Leboeuf), artists (Barry Osborne, producer of Lord of the Rings and Matrix)... to reverse engineer their strategies. \xef\xb8\x8fOur ambition is to make our training and coaching as attractive as watching Netflix and to make success the only option for our clients. (whatever success means for them) So far, this approach has paid off and has enabled us to exceed 2 million followers on social networks, and to organize online events and training courses attended by thousands of people. But we wanted more, so we created 2 new brands with international ambitions. And with them we have 3 dreams :
  • Helping 100 000 people achieve 1 dream and stick their pictures on a wall we call the 100 000 dreams WALL
  • Have Will Smith and Richard Branson in our next documentary
  • Reinvent Education & Create a badass platform to develop yourself
And that\'s where you come in.
