About The Venture
We're looking for a Founder / CEO to lead COREO from venture studio build through spin out and scale.
COREO solves a critical, unsolved problem.
Enterprises can find SMEs but they struggle to book meetings with the real decision-maker and convert intent into revenue.
COREO combines AI agents + human sales orchestration to:
Detect real-world and digital SME signals
Identify true decision-makers
Trigger compliant, timely, multi-channel outreach
Route meetings to the best human agent (field, agency, call centre)
Govern the flow from quote ? contract ? activation
This is a chance to build a category-defining B2B platform at the intersection of AI, sales infrastructure, and compliance with real customers, pilots, and revenue pathways already in motion.
About The Role
As CEO, you'll own vision, traction, and execution.
You'll be the voice of the customer, the driver of product-market fit, and the architect of our go-to-market strategy.
You'll lead conversations with early enterprise clients, sales agencies, and advisors while shaping the broader strategy and culture of the company.

Access to an expert team through our 6 month Venture Studio and accelerator programme
Access seed-stage capital plus hands-on support from an experienced venture-building team
