We’re Hiring!
Working for Fountain Creek
We are always looking to meet entrepreneurially minded individuals - so whether you see a role that is a direct fit or not, please don’t hesitate to reach out and introduce yourself. If you think there is any current or future professional overlap with Fountain Creek, we’d love to talk about it and keep you in mind for future opportunities.
We look for relevant experience and training in your background to make sure you are a fit for a given role, but, above all else, we seek people that have long term ambitions of owning and running a business. Where Fountain Creek is different from most financial services firms is that our focus is on serving the interests of small business owners - this is a core principle of our business. As a result, we strive to hire team members that share in this vision. Where most employers attack or shame your right to work on your own business, Fountain Creek will celebrate it.
We hope our team members think of Fountain Creek as THE ideal place to learn and grow their early stage skill set while incubating their own startup vision. We offer a variety of part-time roles with the explicit goal of giving you the platform to learn to navigate small business headwinds while working on your own business in parallel. Our employment agreements are explicitly protective of your side business, but more importantly, you will find team members eager to listen to and advise on your personal venture. We hope that someday you will transition that side business into your own full time pursuit and, we will celebrate it when the time comes.
Associate, Bookkeeping
We are actively seeking part time bookkeepers - ideally with experience in restaurants and located in Southwestern Connecticut (with the ability to commute 1-2x per week to Westport, CT). If you have experience with restaurant operations but not bookkeeping, we would still highly encourage you to reach out. We have opportunity for 10 and 20 hours per week. Depending on experience, rates are $25-$40 per hour.
Summer Associate, Finance
We have part time roles available for a variety of business development needs in our business that would include: working directly with client companies on their weekly and monthly reporting requirements, marketing research and outreach for perspective clients, managing and upgrading our systems and processes. Ideally the candidate has some experience in the restaurant industry but, above all else, has long term entrepreneurial interests. We are willing to find the right fit for the right person, so if any one or all of the above focus areas are of interest, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us to set up an introductory conversation. The role would be designed for a three month engagement working 10-20 hours per week with the explicit understanding that you are also working with other startups or on your own venture. The hours are flexible, but we would require some in-person visits to our offices in Westport, CT.
