Founder's Associate Intern / Working Student

About the role

Roughly 80% of your time will be spent on outbound outreach — researching target accounts, writing emails to procurement leaders at industrial manufacturers, running LinkedIn sequences, following up, and tracking everything in the CRM. You'll work directly with the CEO and help build the GTM playbook from scratch.

What you'll do

• Research target companies from the ICP list, find the right contacts, write personalized outreach, and manage multi-touch sequences across email and LinkedIn.
• Track open rates, reply rates, and conversion. A/B test messaging. Identify patterns. Every week, the outreach should be better than the week before.
• Keep target account data clean, complete, and actionable. Research company context, procurement org structures, and trigger events.
• When a meeting is booked, help prepare: competitive research, company briefings, one-pagers tailored to the specific account.
• Take on what needs doing — event prep, partnership research, market analysis, or investor deck updates.

What you'll need

• Currently studying or recently graduated in business, engineering, or something equally rigorous.
• Sharp written German and English — able to write a cold email to a Head of Procurement in German and an investor update in English.
• Organized and reliable — you hit your own deadlines and keep data clean even when nobody is checking.
• Genuinely curious about B2B enterprise sales, AI, or how procurement works.
• Entrepreneurial — you've built, organized, or started something from scratch.
• Based in Berlin, available to work from the office at CIC in Kreuzberg (hybrid possible).

What they offer

• Competitive compensation for internship/working student in Berlin.
• Direct mentorship from the CEO of a venture-backed enterprise AI startup.
• Genuine reference and introductions to founders, investors, and operators.
• Path to a full-time role for exceptional performers.
