Founders Office Intern

Overview

About build3
We’re a mission driven startup studio (read more here) that builds impact oriented startups to better the mind, body and the earth. We work with Founders as their institutional co-founder until their venture is a self-sufficient organisation and ready to scale. But we are not advisors, mentors, investors, incubators or accelerators – we are all of these! We are always co-building with the Founder, creatively, conscientiously, through the power of communities.

Your mission, should you choose to accept:

• The only objective you should have as an Intern is to contribute value through your effort and skills to one of build3 programs (startup studio, bIA accelerator, build3 eco-village etc), its startups and the community. This can be achieved through –
  Getting deep into one of the programs – implement processes and strategies to scale the vertical.
• Building out new businesses, conducting fast experiments, conducting industry and competitor research to help stay ahead of the game.
• Working in multiple functional areas as per the organisation’s needs such as Business Operations, Sales, Product Management, and Marketing.
