NOTE: this is a remote position. We don't have offices and run a distributed team. Although this position is subject to spend time for meetings locally in Madrid, Spain. At marketgoo we are hiring an Integrator, a high level key role to execute the business plan by managing and integrating major functions.
Note: the Integrator term is related to the EOS model which is a system to support the management of companies. The alternative title to Integrator is usually a COO, GM or Chief of Staff.
An Integrator is the person who is the tie-breaker for the Leadership Team, is the glue for the organization, holds everything together, provides cadence, is accountable for the P&L results, executes the business plan, holds the Leadership Team accountable, and is the steady force in the organization.
The Integrator also creates organizational clarity, communication, and consistency; typically operates more on logic; drives results; forces resolution, focus, team unity, prioritization and follow-through; is the filter for all of the Visionary’s ideas; harmoniously integrates the Leadership Team, and helps to remove obstacles and barriers.
marketgoo operates in the B2B SaaS space. Our WHY is to build a company our own way while we create digital products. At this point we operate two business lines that provide web presence providers with solutions that they resell and a solution for agencies to optimize their reporting activities.
Our mission is to help businesses succeed online. marketgoo offers software solutions for SMBs to grow their business online by providing powerful, yet simple and easy to use SEO tools. We are a small, bootstrapped, profitable company that is fully distributed - although most of our members live in Spain.
We operate a moderate complex business that works with dozens of partners and resellers all over the world with English spoken markets as our main target. Our resellers are Hosting Companies, SMB providers, WordPress providers, Telecommunication companies and digital Agencies.
Our Culture is above our project. We believe in transparency, personal growth, high impact and profitability. We make a big deal about Culture because it’s the most valuable asset. See more in our Culture Handbook, our Instagram page and get the B-Roll on Pinterest.

Why not work with us
Over the years we have learnt that culture and momentum fit is key for a successful relationship. We expect you to evaluate whether your working preferences and values match ours.
You feel confident being autonomous and don’t expect someone to always lead you by the hand. That doesn’t mean you’ll be lost. The hierarchy is quite flat, lines of communication are open to any one in the company and we will support you in helping you develop your career.
The company is growing and in a great financial situation. However, we are still far from being antifragile to the market. That’s why we are working hard to grow the business, diversify and make the company more stable. In this phase of the company we expect hard work from you too.
You can embrace uncertainty. We run smooth operations and the long term vision is clear but we are not a big corporation where everything is certain, stable and doesn’t change. Expect to explore, iterate, change strategy every once in a while, sunset projects and launch new ones.
We are ambitious and aspire to wealth. We work ethically and want to have a positive impact in the world. But we prioritize business success and impact on ourselves and our families first. We share a percentage of the profits among the team. We hope to have you onboard this amazing journey too.
We are committed to the long term. We expect to work with you forever. Don’t apply if you are not ready to commit for at least three years minimum.
If you feel aligned to our vision and the way we are but your role does not fulfil 100% all the requirements please don’t hesitate to still get in contact with us. Culture fit is greatly important for us and we might prioritize it over a specific technical ability (that you can learn afterwards).
What You Can Expect in the Hiring Process
We expect you as a candidate to be part of the selection process. We believe that a process like this should not be entirely asymmetrical and we are very open to explain how we operate. This process is run by Wences Garcia, our GM and co-founder of the company.
