Business Operations Associate (Junior)

£30-£35k DOE.

Sixty Learn is a young two-person startup building AI-powered learning technology — already working with global organisations like the House of Commons, Network Rail, Nestlé, and Nationwide.

Now we’re hiring our first team member. You won’t be joining a department. You’ll be joining the business.

One day you might be sorting invoicing or building a cash flow view. The next, creating a sales pack, testing a product feature, or setting up a client pilot.

It’s fast, varied, and sometimes messy — but you’ll see how a startup actually works, not just one small part of it.

If that sounds like your kind of environment, keep reading.

A bit more about us:

We specialise in learning around ‘soft’ and ‘people’ skills — the things education doesn’t traditionally teach you.

Our areas of focus are early careers and frontline training — where our mobile tech thrives.

We have 3 core platforms, supported by people services — we help our clients with content creation & live events to support the uptake of our software.

What you’ll get:

You’ll work directly with the founders every day — no layers, no middle management.

Real ownership — you won’t just “help out”, you’ll own things that matter from day one.

Full business exposure — finance, sales, product, marketing, operations, you’ll get hands-on experience across all of it.

A steep learning curve — this role will stretch you. We’ll support you, but we won’t spoon-feed you.

What you’ll do:

The honest answer: whatever the business needs. But realistically, it breaks down to:

Operations & client work

Managing supplier and client onboarding, including data and cyber requirements
Building sales packs and supporting client bids and proposals
Building and maintaining our CRM

Finance

Running core financial processes — invoicing, cash flow tracking and forecasting. You don't need an accounting background; you need to be comfortable with numbers and willing to learn the tools.

Marketing & events

Creating LinkedIn content and supporting marketing campaigns
Helping plan and deliver events and webinars

Product & delivery

Supporting project delivery — creating training content, templates, helping turn round client work
Supporting product development, testing, feeding in ideas, flagging what's not working

Internal

Building internal workflows and systems using AI tools (we build AI products; we also use them everywhere internally)

The individual who’ll thrive in this role:

You take ownership. You figure things out. You don't wait to be told what to do.

Ideal candidate profile(we don't expect you to tick every box):

Experience owning and delivering something — we care less about what it was than what you genuinely delivered.

Comfortable applying Gen-AI tools to real work — we're an AI company, so genuine fluency matters.

Strong organisation and attention to detail.

Comfortable with complex problems and a fast learner.

Strong written and verbal communication — you’re clear, concise, engaging.

Comfortable with numbers and basic data analysis — finance is part of the role.

Entrepreneurial spirit — you want to build things and make a difference to the world, not just coast.

Practical experience with Excel, Gen-AI, and workflow tools — applied to real tasks, not just coursework.

Details:

£30-35k starting salary — dependent on experience.

Stamford, Lincolnshire — our office location.

Hybrid working — 3 days minimum in office per week following induction.

Immediate start available.

50:50 board — we’re proud to say our board is 50% female managed.
