So what does 40 Parables do?
Since 2015, 40 Parables has been a strategic MarTech firm that has helped many Christian ministries share their stories better.
In 2022, one of our pivots created our first product, Bleat, an assessment platform for the missional world. Thousands of ministry and church leaders are now using assessments built by Bleat. Our hands are full, and that’s why we need your help to perfect this pivot.

Sounds cool! How can I know more?
Bleat? Yes, that’s our product’s name, and the dictionary defines it as the wavering cry of a sheep. That’s why it is also the name of our assessment platform, as it helps churches evaluate themselves and know their congregations better by listening to the voices of their sheep.

Our new product is just two years old, and we’ve already built 50+ assessments for clients, and things are only getting bigger faster!
That said, we need more hands!

Teamwork makes the dream work! Just look at these guys 👇
That’s why we’re hiring a marketing coordinator to stand in the gap and bridge our leadership and product team toward greater fruitfulness.

4. Schedule Zoom calls, in-person meetings, events, etc.
5. Organize and maintain documentation and files for our clients on Notion.

3. You proofread your own work so that everything is always good to go.
4. You have ninja-like research skills to scour the web faster than Spiderman!
5. You know how American churches operate or can research this fast and well.
6. You coordinate in your sleep and know event management like the back of your palm.
7. You are amazing at collaborating with multiple team members across departments.
8. You have graduated with a linguistic degree or worked extensively in such roles before.
9. You will score well on our content test that is licking its lips and waiting to test such people.

That sounds exciting! What will I gain and learn from this experience?
Let's start with the gains.
1. A well-compensated role: We believe a worker is worthy of his wages (1 Tim 5:18). So we’ll compensate you fairly for your capability, capacity, and career experience.
2. Time off: This role isn't your life. Your life is your life, and you need time for it. We offer sufficient time off (public holidays, vacation, and sick leave) to ensure that you’re working to live and not living to work.
3. Flexible working conditions: We’ve been remote since day one in 2015.
You can count on flexibility as your friend—as long as it’s communicated in advance, deadlines are not affected, and teammates aren’t left hanging.
However, it’s mandatory to attend our online weekly meetings and in-person internal hackathons that take place every quarter in Bengaluru.
Hope you’re willing to travel, because it’s going to be fun! And, of course, your travel and stay are on us, and we take great care of our people. 😊

Thanks! But most decent companies offer these basic benefits. Tell me more about the real learning benefits.
1. Great learning opportunity for someone who’s interested in SaaS products, digital marketing, client servicing, etc.
2. 24/7 access to many SaaS MarTech tools we use daily (ActiveCampaign, Typeform, Mouseflow, etc.) that can help you become a smart product developer

4. 1:1 mentoring to ensure you’re growing in your skill

All that sounds good, but how will I know if I’m a good fit?
We hate jargon such as self-motivated, proactive, team player, etc. What do those terms mean, anyway? We’re intentional about adding every teammate because we can run only as fast as the slowest member of our team.
This role is a good fit only for those who can handle these 10 commandments daily:
1. We believe everything we do is unto the Lord, and we’re accountable to Him. If you don’t believe the same, we totally understand that, and thank you for reading thus far.
1. We believe everything we do is unto the Lord, and we’re accountable to Him. If you don’t believe the same, we totally understand that, and thank you for reading thus far.
2. We’re far from perfect and have many shortcomings, but by God’s grace, our team has had a zero-ego policy from day one. If you can’t leave your ego at the door, it might not be worth knocking or trying to enter.
3. As innovators, our primary enemy is mediocrity. We’ll hold you (and ourselves) to the highest standard. If excellence isn’t your pal, chances are we won’t be either.
4. Iron sharpens iron daily at 40 Parables. We depend on honest, constructive, and critical feedback to refine our sabres. If you can’t handle feedback, you might not be able to handle our efforts to enter through the narrow door.
5. You’ll get to unlearn and relearn almost everything you know about product development. A posture of humility, a keen ear for listening, and an attitude of lifelong learning are mandatory for innovators like us.
That’s great! I love to learn, and I’m already learning a lot about what this role will look like. Please keep going.
6. Extreme ownership is a value that we aim to live out daily. We’re looking for people who are mindful of the big picture and can responsibly see things through entirely.
7. We always echo Nicolas Hayek’s quote: “Everything we do and the way we do everything sends a message.” That’s why we love people who pay attention to detail and have their heads in the game.

8. Plans are disposable, but planning is essential. Ask 2020 if it was prepared for a pandemic! This role is a Marie Kondo magnet for those who are good at organizing, project management as well as being good stewards of and productive with their time.
9. We’d prefer if you had decent product development experience or could pick up really, really, really (hoping you got the emphasis) fast. It doesn’t matter if you’ve been at it for two or 20 years; we want someone we can pass things on to, rely on, and move on.
10. We collaborate best with those who ask questions and challenge the status quo, not those who blindly take orders and follow the crowd on the broad road to mediocrity.
