OUR BELIEFS

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


We believe self-help is broken.

Most learning platforms fail : generic theories, short-term motivation, little real change.


At

Paradox

, we believe people deserve more


They deserve a

system that knows them

, one that adapts, challenges, and grows with them through

AI personalization, lean experimentation, and deep psychological understanding

.


Personal development shouldn't just make you feel motivated for a day, it should

change how you think, create and live.

OUR VISION

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


At Paradox, we want to re-invent how people grow.


We do not build another course or coaching app but the Operating System for Greatness.


Founded by David Laroche, followed by over 2M+ people and known for his interviews with icons like Tony Parker, Mike Horn, Richard Branson, and Gad Elmaleh, Paradox aims to build something that will live beyond any individual (including its founder), for decades to come.


Our ambition is to compete with players like Mindvalley (150M ARR), but with a sharper vision, grounded protocols for achievers, people who want more for their life, refusing mediocrity.


To do that, we bring together designers, tech, coaches, and filmmakers to create learning experiences that are cinematic, precise, and effective.


We move fast, aim high, and hold ourselves to the standards of Apple, Spotify, and MasterClass. No fluff, focused on meaningful impact.


While others hide their numbers, we want to let our results speak loudly for us.


Get obsessed with transforming our clients' lives and let those transformations be our marketing.


And that's where you come in.

YOUR MISSION

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

-

Your mission is to remove the CEO from everything that shouldn't require his presence,

while building systems that work without him.

Important note:

The responsibilities are broad by design. That is intentional.


You will not do everything at once.


You will sequence, systemize, delegate, and eliminate.

1. Personal Operations

Own the founder's operating system: inbox, calendar, priorities, and follow-through Manage personal admin : banking, leases, visas, real estate, payments Coordinate travel and podcast logistics Investing & Real estate management

Outcomes

CEO is no longer required for follow-ups, coordination, problem solving Decisions reach the founder

prepared

, with options, trade-offs, and recommendations

2. Negotiation, and Finding the best suppliers

Negotiate with: banks, vendors, service providers Build credible BATNAs Benchmark pricing, terms, timelines, and market standards Design leverage and pressure points

Outcomes

Faster deals, better terms, minimal CEO involvement.

3. Complex Project Management Ownership

Own complex projects end-to-end (business and personal) Coordinate legal, technical, financial experts Understand enough technically to ask the right questions, detect evasive answers, expose weak assumptions

Outcomes

Projects move. Decisions are documented. No drift.

4.

Execution, Systems & Scaling

Own execution cadence (priorities, OKRs, follow-through) Build scalable operating systems (processes, tools, AI, knowledge base) Turn Paradox Philosophy Guides David is writing into rituals and operating behaviors Run post-mortems, and reflection rituals.

Outcomes

Strategy turns into execution.

5. Talent Density

Source, screen, and interview top talent Identify misfits early Secure top-tier service providers

Outcomes

Right people. Right seats. No compromise.

6. Finance & Admin Operations & Cost Discipline

Multi-country admin (France, Portugal, Spain, UAE) Ensure all financial data is complete, accurate, and decision-ready Continuous cost and tool audits

Outcomes

Clean numbers. Controlled spend.

The Reality of This Role (Read Carefully)

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


-


This role blends

business operations and personal operations

.

The founder's life is fast-paced and unpredictable.

Opportunities arise last-minute.


Decisions sometimes require evenings or weekends.

This role requires flexibility, discretion, and excellence.

you need clarity before chaos wrong place.
you prefer balance over intensity wrong season.
you avoid confrontation wrong fit you want a purely strategic or advisory role wrong job Big corporation CoS or junior EAs usually don't work out
