Founder's Office Ops (Working Student)

Key Responsibilities:

• Product from the commercial side: You translate process knowledge into requirements, define edge cases, test new features, and prioritise with the team. You won't write the code, but you will shape what gets built.
• Operations: You take on operational work in the day-to-day business and run it reliably and cleanly.
• Collect feedback and pass it on: You actively gather feedback from customers and from daily operations, structure it, and hand it to the tech team so it turns into the next version.
• Commercial support: You help us find the right target customers. Sharpening the ICP, researching accounts and decision makers, enriching and preparing lists, and keeping the CRM clean so the sales team can move straight into a relevant conversation.
