About the job

This is a high-exposure internship for someone who graduated from a top university (like UCT or Stellies) and wants to learn how a growing business is actually built and run by working directly alongside our founder, who has built and sold three companies.

You’ll support the founder across all areas of our business – including recruitment, marketing, operations, HR, legal, sales, and client work. Some days will be structured; others won’t. At times you’ll receive close guidance, and at other times you’ll be expected to figure things out independently with minimal oversight.

This role suits someone who is exceptionally driven, highly organised, and serious about building a career in the startup world.

What you’ll be involved in

• Supporting our founder with day-to-day execution across the business
• Researching, preparing, and following up on operational, commercial, and people-related tasks
• Assisting with recruitment, onboarding, and internal processes
• Helping with marketing, content, and sales-related work
• Coordinating meetings, notes, and actions to keep momentum high
• Taking ownership of tasks and seeing them through properly

What we’re looking for

• Graduate of a top university
• Unbelievably driven – you don’t need to be chased
• Strong self-learner, comfortable operating with limited oversight
• Exceptional attention to detail – accuracy matters
• Confident, organised, and reliable under pressure
• Willing to work hard, stay committed, and be relentless when needed
• Genuinely curious about how startups are built and scaled

This is not a passive or observational internship. You’ll be expected to contribute, take responsibility, and learn fast.

Working arrangement & logistics

• One-year internship
• Based in or willing to relocate to Cape Town
• Hybrid, with at least 3 days per week from our office in Claremont
• Monthly stipend provided

Why this role is different

This internship can be a launchpad into a full-time role within the business, or a strong first step into the startup world, offering rare exposure to real founder-level decision-making.
