Location
Hamburg | Germany
Job description
We are looking for a Founder’s Associate (m/f/d) for an paid full-time internship for 6-12 months. In special cases, a working student position (20 hours per week) might also be possible.
You think and act like a founder yourself. You work directly with our founder and CEO Robert.
The role gives you a comprehensive insight into every area of our startup – from HR and operations, over business development/sales and finance, to marketing/PR and product development. As our startup grows, your responsibilties can evolve to include other areas and/or shift in focus to build on your strengths. This is your chance to be part of a visionary journey and stand at the forefront of the global fight against air pollution.
What you need to succeed:
You deeply care about our environment
You are available for 6+ months
You are enrolled (or in a gap year) in a Bachelor, Master or PhD-Program
You have prior experience in fast-paced environments, e.g. high-growth startups, venture capital, private equity firms, investment banking, management consulting or tech companies
You show entrepreneurial skills with attention to detail
You have a high level of agency and ownership
You have outstanding verbal and written communication skills
You are curious with a hunger to learn
You are fluent in German and English
You would like to work on-site in our office in Hamburg, Germany, and be willing to travel with our founder to international events
YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES
You think and act like a founder: You will get responsibility from day one for a variety of operational and strategic initiatives. You act as an in-house consultant and work directly with our company’s founder to uncover needs and bottlenecks. All projects will have a critical impact on our startup and directly relate to our mission of creating more livable cities and improving air quality.
Enable company growth: From scouting top talent for our growing team, over creating presentations and proposals for potential customers, to organizing our company’s participation in events, your work will be mission-critical for the future growth of Breeze Technologies.
Be our founder’s shadow: Whatever our CEO is working on, you will be working on as well. You’ll have Robert’s back and support him in everything that he is working on. In exchange, you will get unique insights into what it takes to build and grow a deeptech social-impact company on an international level.
Depending on your preferences and performance, your responsibilities and role will be evolving over time with the growth of Breeze Technologies as a successful social impact startup. With your entry as a Founder’s Associate, you are perfectly positioned for a later candidacy for a full-time or part-time position at Breeze Technologies, also for leadership positions.
WHAT WE OFFER
Have a measurable positive impact on our environment, people’s health and the planet
Work on a great product in one of the most innovative startups in Hamburg
Be part of a dynamic and tightly-knit team of 15 people where you can really see the effects of your contribution
A flexible work schedule (currently with heavily encouraged remote work due to the ongoing pandemic)
