About the role

As Founders Associate you work directly with the CEO on the strategic core of the business: growth market expansion and fundraising. This is a high-leverage role for a sharp generalist who wants a front-row seat building one of Europes most ambitious health platforms.

This is not a coordination job. You own outcomes not tasks. You move at startup speed with strategic depth and you are measured on results not activity.

Tasks

What you own first

This role is broad by design but the standard is not. Within your first six months you will own at least one company-priority workstream end to end with a real number attached reported by you without the CEO in the numbers. We assign the specific outcome together in your first 30 days once we have read the quarters priorities and your strengths.

What does not flex: you carry a metric you drive it and you are judged on the result not the activity around it.
