We’re looking for an entrepreneurial leader to take the reins of Roomli : a venture that turns rent into ownership by letting people buy individual rooms in shared homes. Roomli revolutionizes access to housing empowering people and boosting their savings and wealth.
Who are we?
At Byld, we don’t just build businesses, we create game-changing ventures in collaboration with leading corporations. Since 2017, we’ve been designing, validating, and launching new companies, blending the best of the entrepreneurial and corporate worlds to develop scalable businesses with real impact.
Today, accessing homeownership in major cities is nearly impossible. Prices keep rising, renting has become a dead-end trap, and buying a whole property is out of reach for most people. In Spain, 70% of young households are over-indebted, spending more than 40% of their income on rent, and the average time needed to save for a first home is 15 years. This lockout has created a new need : a more accessible, fair, and flexible path to start building wealth—without literally mortgaging your life.
Roomli is one of our latest ventures. It was born to challenge the status quo in real estate and push towards a society where property ownership is more accessible for everyone, especially in big cities. The model allows people, particularly young professionals, to become co-owners of a home by purchasing individual rooms, instead of renting . This isn’t just a new real estate model; it’s a new way of living, investing, and building community. It brings together real estate, fintech, and community into a single experience.
Roomli is now at the go-to-market stage : We’ve already validated demand, built the legal framework, secured access to properties and now we’re ready to scale. We’re looking for a strategic, entrepreneurial leader with experience in operational businesses, real estate, or financial products and a strong desire to roll up their sleeves and build something big from the ground up. Someone who thrives in ambiguity, knows what it takes to go from zero to one, and wants to reshape how an entire generation accesses homeownership.
Join us in making access to property fairer, smarter, and more flexible.
About The Role
We’re looking for a strategic and entrepreneurial leader excited about changing the rules of the game in one of the most rigid industries. With experience in real estate, high-demanding operational businesses, ventures, or financial products. Someone who thrives in early-stage environments, can wear multiple hats, and is ready to roll up their sleeves to launch a high-impact venture.
