Growth Associate

We aim to create a world where managing, sending, and receiving money is effortless, no matter where you live or work. With Sling, people can protect, move, and spend their money across 150 countries and currencies from a single, simple app.

Sling leverages stablecoin and real-time payments technology to convert between local currencies and digital dollars or euros almost instantaneously for a negligible fee. We’re in 150 countries and the app is available on Android and iOS. Sling is from Avian Labs, Inc., created by product builders and engineers from Monzo, Square, Cash App and Revolut.

We’re hiring multiple Growth Associates to establish Sling’s on‑the‑ground presence across key cities in Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Kenya, Uganda, Zimbabwe, Rwanda, Indonesia, Malaysia, Poland, Czechia, and the UAE. This is a high‑energy, high‑ownership role that blends strategy, creativity, data analysis, field marketing, and community engagement to test and scale the channels that matter most for our target customers.

You will work closely with product to design campaigns, run on‑the‑ground activations, and build authentic, long‑term relationships in the communities Sling serves. From structured experiments in paid and organic channels to grassroots events and WhatsApp or local community programs, you’ll own growth in your city and turn insights from the field into repeatable growth playbooks.

This isn't just a desk job. It's about being scrappy, testing bold ideas, and building Sling's presence from the ground up. You'll have the freedom to experiment, the autonomy to execute, and the responsibility to make things happen. This is a great role for anyone early in their career with a keen interest in start‑ups and hands‑on growth, who wants to learn how to launch and scale products in the real world.
