Founders Associate - CEO Office (all genders)

You're not getting coffee. You're getting things done that the CEO can't get to — and some things he hasn't thought of yet.
As Founders Associate at Prospeum, you work directly with the CEO across strategy, operations, and growth. You explore new initiatives, drive them from idea to execution, and make sure the 50 things on the "we should do this" list actually happen.
This starts as an internship. If you're the right person, it becomes a full-time role — and the scope grows with you.
Tasks
* Drive cross-functional projects from idea to execution, including competitive intelligence, partnership development, marketing campaigns, event coordination, and hiring processes.
* Research and structure strategic opportunities in new markets, partnerships, and product angles.
* Manage operational tasks that keep the business running, such as pipeline tracking, reporting, partner coordination, and proposal preparation.
* Prepare customer-facing materials, including decks, one-pagers, and data analysis.
* Coordinate across Sales, Product, Engineering, and external partners.
* Identify problems before they become emergencies and propose solutions, not just raise flags.
* Build processes where none exist — you're creating the playbook, not following one.
Requirements
* Currently studying or recently graduated in Business, Economics, Engineering, or a related field.
* Execution-first mindset — you finish what you start and don't wait to be told what to do.
* Comfortable with ambiguity: you can take a vague "we should figure out X" and turn it into a structured plan.
* Strong analytical skills: you're comfortable with data, spreadsheets, and structured thinking.
* Excellent written and verbal communication — you'll be writing emails to enterprise customers and structuring internal documents.
* Curious about B2B SaaS, procurement, or supply chain — or genuinely eager to learn.
* Tech-literate: you use AI tools productively, navigate SaaS platforms comfortably, and aren't afraid of new tools.
* Fluent in German and proficient in English.
* Available for at least 6 months, ideally full-time.
Benefits
* Direct mentorship from the CEO — not through a manager or a team lead.
* Real ownership from day one: you'll run projects, not just observe them.
* Path to full-time: prove yourself and the role grows with you.
* Exposure to enterprise sales, product strategy, and AI-driven SaaS — from the inside.
* Hybrid work: primarily in the office (that's where the action is), with flexible scheduling.
**Why Join Prospeum?

Most internships teach you what a company does. This one teaches you how a company is built.
Prospeum is at an inflection point — 60+ enterprise customers, a product that's transforming with AI, and a team that's scaling for the first time. You won't be filing documents. You'll be in the room when decisions are made, and sometimes you'll be the one making them.
If you want a founders-track career and you'd rather build than observe — this is where you start.
