Founding Growth Lead

About the job

At Adclear, we're building the trust layer for how the world's most regulated companies bring products to market. Every bank, lender and investment platform runs into the same invisible pain: compliance review that slows down every campaign, every launch, every idea. We're turning the function that has always said 'no' into infrastructure that says 'yes, and here's how'.

This is a fundamental shift in how regulated industries and compliance teams operate, and we're only at the beginning. Your role here isn't just to hit a number, it's to help redefine how an entire market discovers what's possible, and to build the commercial engine that gets us there.

Founded in 2024, we've already gained the trust of leading innovators as well as established enterprises including Monzo, Lloyds, PensionBee, Kraken, Coinbase and many others.

Our early traction enabled us to raise £2.6m in funding and we're now looking to scale faster. We're moving from founder-led sales to a repeatable growth engine and we want someone who has built that engine before, not someone building it for the first time.

The Basics

📍 Location: London (4 days a week in our Farringdon office)

⏱️ Experience: 4+ years in outbound-heavy sales/GTM, including time spent building process, tooling, or a team from scratch

🧑‍💼 Reports to: Founders

💰 Pay: Competitive base with uncapped, meaningful upside plus equity

🥇 The role: Lead our commercial engine, own pipeline generation, close new business, and build the playbooks, tooling, and team structure that let us scale beyond founder-led sales

The Role

This is the role that builds and runs Adclear's UK commercial engine. We spent two years building a genuine community, a content engine, events and a strong network a lot of what you touch is already warm. But we need someone who's done more than work a warm desk: someone who has stood up a GTM motion before, knows what "repeatable" actually looks like, and can operate directly with founders without a playbook handed to them.

You'll close net-new business yourself, own the full cycle from outbound through to signed retainer, and build the systems - CRM, sequencing, reporting that let the function scale past you. As we grow, you'll be first in line to build and lead the team und
