You’ll obviously need an eye for grammar, but also an ear for rhythm, tone and flow, as well as an unflagging ability to explain complex topics simply and concisely. You’ll need creative flair, too: we want you to find compelling ways into inert stories, ply your output with a sense of humour, and work closely with every part of the company to engage our readers. You don’t need to be a financial expert, but you will need to be able to understand unedited analysis and challenge our analysts when something doesn’t sound right.
ABOUT REVIX
We are a rapidly growing fintech expanding into global markets and are looking for highly motivated dreamers, thinkers and doers to join our small high-performance team. We have received investment funding from prestigious NASDAQ and JSE listed companies.

Cryptoassets have been our first investable category. We offer Bitcoin, Ethereum, a regulated fully backed gold token called Paxos Gold, and 3 ready-made crypto Bundles, that are like the S&P 500 for crypto and offer passive diversified exposure to the crypto asset class.
Early next year our crypto products will be joined by listed thematic ETFs which offer retail investors exposure to several emerging industries including AI, biotech, cybersecurity and eSports as well as mainstream indices (S&P500, NASDAQ100, etc.) and previously inaccessible alternative asset classes (including tokenised real estate, private debt, fine art, classic cars, etc).

These may include creating through-leadership content, hosting events, supporting with social media outreach, developing Press Releases, to name a few.
The most important community that the HoC will focus on are the startup Founders and Africa’s early-stage entrepreneurs.
Others include: investors (VCs), corporates/partners, universities and other research or academic institutions, and the media. For example, in mid 2020, FFA has launched HATCH “Hatch by Founders Factory Africa is a network of African entrepreneurs and visionaries who are committed to transforming the startup ecosystem across the continent.” Other existing efforts include the Partnerships Advisory Forum - a network of African leaders (high level and C-suite individuals) who engage with FFA startups and FFA teams to share their network, provide technical advice and engage in finding solutions to complex challenges.
HoC will work closely with the Head of Growth (Marketing); the design team; Programmatic Managers (FFA Venture Scale and Venture Build), Head of Partnerships, , Head of Investment and Head of MakersLab.

We're building the most powerful growth engine for African startups and their founders.
Founders Factory Africa (FFA) is unlike any place else you’ve ever worked. We are venture builders dedicated to solving some of Africa’s biggest challenges and capitalizing on it’s incredible potential by leveraging market and tech opportunities. Over the next five years, we’ll build 40 businesses from scratch and scale 100 existing growth-stage ventures through our venture development programs. Backed by leading corporates, such as Standard Bank – the continent’s largest bank – we have access to their vast resources, infrastructure, and expertise and will bring those to bear for all our ventures and entrepreneurs. Starting with FinTech and HealthTech, FFA will expand our focus as we grow, adding other sectors that include retail, transportation, energy, and education.
Our Culture
Our goals are audacious, and we want to work with people who share our passion for pursuing transformation at scale. We believe that good ideas can come from anywhere - not just the top - and we love to build our way out of uncertainty. At FFA, you will work with and meet outstanding and diverse talent from across the continent and help us build a collaborative, inclusive, and supportive network. You will work faster (and learn faster) than you ever have before.
With offices in Johannesburg and London, we are building an ambitious, talented, and passionate team, ensuring that Founders Factory Africa is the continent’s best partner for founders.
We're looking for someone to join our Venture Design team, the team responsible for designing the new ventures that we build from scratch.
Venture Design is the process of identifying new business opportunities and developing solutions to address them. Rather than relying on serendipity, venture design looks at user needs and market opportunities and applies an iterative and creative process to create the foundations for new businesses.
Our venture design process is not about creating an exact business blueprint, as finding product market fit is an exercise in itself. Instead our aim is to give the founding team a foundation to build upon, usually consisting of:
1. An opportunity: Identify market gap and unmet user need or desire.
2. A solution: A credible solution hypothesis on how to address that need.
3. A go to market approach: Clear differentiating factors, a commercial strategy and unfair advantage.
As a Venture Designer, you will be constantly researching trends and markets, teasing out problems, hypothesising solutions, testing and validating their appeal, and thinking about the commercial foundations for new businesses. This involves constant ideation and rapid experimentation, so we’re looking for individuals who are both creative and analytical with strong commercial acumen. You’ll be working with individuals across our organization as well as with stakeholders from our partners, so you must be a natural collaborator and be adept at synthesizing many different inputs into a set of actionable insights.
To succeed in this role you must have a curious and creative mind, a deep empathy for the people you’re designing for, and the ability to apply a commercial lens to everything you do. You should enjoy the messiness that is the design process and thrive in a fast-paced, constantly evolving startup environment, but be comfortable building processes and applying an analytical lens and lean methodologies to your work.
You will be:

We want everyone at Revix to own their story and their successes - working with us means you’re not just another cog in the machine.
WHAT DO WE OFFER
We are a platform that makes investing simple, engaging and automated.
Cryptoassets have been our first investable category. We offer Bitcoin, Ethereum, a regulated fully backed gold token called Paxos Gold, and 3 ready-made crypto Bundles, that are like the S&P 500 for crypto and offer passive diversified exposure to the crypto asset class.
Early next year our crypto products will be joined by listed thematic ETFs which offer retail investors exposure to several emerging industries including AI, biotech, cybersecurity and eSports as well as mainstream indices (S&P500, NASDAQ100, etc.) and previously inaccessible alternative asset classes (including tokenised real estate, private debt, fine art, classic cars, etc).

We're looking for someone to join our Venture Design team, the team responsible for designing the new ventures that we build from scratch.
Venture Design is the process of identifying new business opportunities and developing solutions to address them. Rather than relying on serendipity, venture design looks at user needs and market opportunities and applies an iterative and creative process to create the foundations for new businesses.
Our venture design process is not about creating an exact business blueprint, as finding product market fit is an exercise in itself. Instead our aim is to give the founding team a foundation to build upon, usually consisting of:
1. An opportunity: Identify market gap and unmet user need or desire.
2. A solution: A credible solution hypothesis on how to address that need.
3. A go to market approach: Clear differentiating factors, a commercial strategy and unfair advantage.
As a Venture Designer, you will be constantly researching trends and markets, teasing out problems, hypothesising solutions, testing and validating their appeal, and thinking about the commercial foundations for new businesses. This involves constant ideation and rapid experimentation, so we’re looking for individuals who are both creative and analytical with strong commercial acumen. You’ll be working with individuals across our organization as well as with stakeholders from our partners, so you must be a natural collaborator and be adept at synthesizing many different inputs into a set of actionable insights.
To succeed in this role you must have a curious and creative mind, a deep empathy for the people you’re designing for, and the ability to apply a commercial lens to everything you do. You should enjoy the messiness that is the design process and thrive in a fast-paced, constantly evolving startup environment, but be comfortable building processes and applying an analytical lens and lean methodologies to your work.
You will be:
