Responsibilities
- Prepare research, briefs, presentations, and decision material for founder meetings, investors, and partners.
- Capture meeting notes, maintain action trackers, and follow up with teams to drive closure.

- Build and maintain dashboards, spreadsheets, and operating trackers used to run the business.
- Coordinate calendars, travel, and communications when required.
- Conduct first-pass analysis of new opportunities and present clear recommendations rather than raw data.
- Step into urgent gaps across the company and adapt as priorities change.
Requirements

- Structured thinking and the ability to turn ambiguous questions into practical plans.
- Strong Excel or Google Sheets and presentation skills.
- Sound judgment and complete discretion when handling confidential information.
- High ownership, reliable follow-through, and comfort working independently in a fast-changing environment.
- Ability to learn quickly and use AI tools effectively.
- Prior experience in a founder's office, consulting, startup, club, society, or self-run venture is helpful but not essential.
- Basic financial modelling skills and an interest in a future full-time leadership track are valued.
- Applicants may come from any college, degree, or academic year; there is no tier or marks filter.
- Availability for a full-time, hybrid engagement of at least 6 months, along with a clear view of what they want to accomplish during the internship.
- Shortlisted candidates must complete a structured problem-solving round and a written exercise.
