Role
Who you are
- The ideal candidate is highly analytical with a natural inclination for problem-solving and a passion for precision, understanding that small improvements stack up, driving significant overall impact
- A bachelor’s degree in a technical or analytical field (e.g., STEM, economics, finance, etc.)
- At least 6 months working in a fast-paced professional work environment where analytical thinking & rigorous organisation were required - e.g. high growing start-up, consulting, investment banking but the list can be longer
- Experience working hands-on with data in a professional environment is strongly preferred
- Some proof of building something new individually or in team is appreciated
- Likes to roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty. “Our job isn’t done until the job is done”
- Ready to tackle the last mile when needed, and motivated by taking on challenges that stretch your personal capability
- Open to feedback and happy to collaborate. Aristotle said ‘the whole is greater than the sum of it’s parts’. That’s how we work!
- Unafraid to say, "I don't know the answer. But I have a few ideas on how we can find out"
- Analytical: you are able to search for patterns based on qualitative/quantitative insights and identify the causes for the pattern
- Freakishly organised: you have a high attention to detail and don’t let things fall through the cracks
- Data-driven and outcome-focused: you can track, interpret and evaluate outcomes to show impact
- Pragmatic: capable of focusing on the highest priorities and apply the 80/20 rule to achieve them (i.e. what 20% of the work will drive 80% of the impact?)
- Highly proficient English (written and spoken)
- Working knowledge MS Office / equivalent business tools
- Nice to have: SQL
- Most importantly, we're looking for curious, ambitious people who love to learn and want to be a part of building something special. If (for any reason) you don't fit our requirements but you're passionate about our vision, don't hesitate to apply!

Salary benchmarks
Our take
Stotles is aiming to break down the barriers to government contracting, so more firms can compete for public sector contracts, not just those with the right contacts.
They do this by using lots of government data to identify business opportunities in the public sector, and match them with the companies on their platform. The platform, which gets its name from Aristotle, enables suppliers to follow indicators, track potential contract renewals, monitor buyers, and monitor competitors.
The founders have been at the intersection of public and private sectors, at firms such as the World Economic Forum, Boston Consulting Group, and Bloomberg. They have experienced the pain of bidding for public work beforehand, which gave them the idea.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at Stotles
John Witt (CEO)
- ED&I is both important *and* urgent — in the short-term and long-term. It must not take a back seat.
- The phrase "Equality, Diversity, & Inclusion" (ED&I) refers to our initiative to create a well-rounded workforce and an environment where everyone has the opportunity to be the best version of themselves - no matter who we are, where we're from, or what we look like
- How we define equality: We view equality as the fairness of opportunity to contribute to the mission of Stotles - regardless of traits and characteristics of a person.
- How we define diversity: We view diversity as the traits and characteristics that make people unique. Gender, race, ethnicity, age, origin, religion, sexual orientation, and disability are some examples of how we are diverse at Stotles. We also consider diversity as differences in experiences and ways of thinking. Sometimes we can see things that make us diverse and sometimes we can't.
- We view inclusion as the behaviors, processes, systems, and norms that ensure all unique people feel welcome, and feel ownership of our mission, regardless of their background
