London
Description
Founder Associate MBA Interns work within the Office of Strategic Management (OSM), a lean and elite team that drive high priority, strategic and operational projects for our Founders. You will report to the Global Head of Strategy and OSM (Jairo Riveros), work directly with our two Founders and support the wider Executive Leadership Team too.
Founder Associate MBA Interns are empowered with high levels of autonomy and there is no fixed structure, nor set of BAU activities. To succeed you must be comfortable with that ambiguity and have the ability to assess a problem, navigate complexity to define an approach, undertake the analysis and deliver a solution. This is a summer internship starting late June/early July.

In return, you'll be treated as a trusted member of the OSM, have the space to grow and work on some of the most interesting projects for the company - this is an unparalleled growth opportunity!
Requirements
We don't have a specific type, however, this role lends well to those who are adaptable, driven and keen to get stuck in. We are not looking for a finished product, we're looking for individuals who can demonstrate the right behaviours, have added value before and who want to continue to develop.
