Founder’s Associate – JD [Dec 2025]
🧑🏾💻 Founder’s Associate (Sales & GTM Operations)
Role: Founder’s Associate (Sales & GTM Operations)
Location: London, UK (Shoreditch)
Schedule: Full-time (36 hours/week — 4 day work week Mon-Thurs)
Reports to: Founder (with close collaboration with Managing Director & Chief of Staff)
Start date: January 2026
Literal Humans is a growth partner agency for forward-thinking, mission-driven brands. We advise C-Suite leaders on holistic growth strategy while deeply integrating with their in-house marketing, product, and sales teams to help them scale with purpose.
We specialise in working with early-stage startups and scale-ups in sectors like ClimateTech, HRTech, HealthTech, FinTech, EdTech, InsurTech, and AI, as well as other values-led brands across the UK, US, and Europe.
We care deeply about alignment, quality, and empathy. The people who thrive here think like founders, take ownership, and make things happen.
You’re an early-career operator who loves making complex things simple, and big ideas executable. You’re obsessed with clarity, follow-through, and making sure nothing “falls between the cracks.”
You’re excited by sales, marketing, GTM strategy, and the inner workings of a growing company. You like building systems as much as you like getting things done day-to-day. You’re happy being behind the scenes, making sure the Founder is in the right place, with the right information, doing the right work.
You’re not scared of spreadsheets, CRMs, transcripts, or messy pipelines. In fact, you like turning chaos into clean boards, clear priorities, and simple checklists.
This is a high-exposure execution role where you’ll act as the Founder’s force multiplier — with a special focus on:
You’ll sit at the heart of our GTM engine, helping build and run the systems that will take us to £1M ARR in 2026.
This role is perfect for someone who wants to learn GTM, agency operations, sales, and strategy by working directly with the Founder, Managing Director (MD), and Chief of Staff (CoS).
You will ensure that:
If you struggle with detail, follow-through, or organisation, this probably isn’t the role for you. The expectation is that you’ll organise yourself brilliantly as you manage and tweak an executive operating system that maximises our Founder’s hard work.
If you want to spend all day “thinking strategy” without ever updating a CRM, drafting an email follow-up, or turning voice notes into usable documents, you’ll find this frustrating.
If you’re not willing to ask questions upfront, chase people for clarity, and then make an informed decision to move things forward, this role won’t be a good fit. If you’re not ready take ownership for keeping the Founder and leadership team aligned, this will feel overwhelming.
If you want something “chill” where your work doesn’t really move the needle and you’re not accountable for showing your work and presenting results regularly, this isn’t it.
If you love being the person who makes everything run smoothly, you’ll thrive here.
If you enjoy turning chaos into clean systems, big ideas into actionable plans, and messy conversations into crisp notes and next steps — you’ll be in your element.
If you’ve been looking for a role where you can learn cutting-edge strategy and execution in sales, marketing, growth strategy, and operations directly from a Founder and senior leadership team, this is that role.
You’ll see the immediate impact of your work in:
Your Q1 mission:
Support the Founder and leadership team to build and activate a fully operational, high-value revenue engine capable of delivering £1M ARR in 2026.
You’ll play a key role in:
This Q1 Rock is complete when:
We’ll evaluate success through both qualitative feedback and clear metrics.
Co-managing the Founder’s Sales + Marketing operations system
Preparing every client/prospect meeting with context + goals
Producing post-call follow-up drafts, next steps, and email scripts the Founder can quickly approve
Managing pipeline hygiene across tools (Monday.com currently)
Turning Founder notes, call recordings, or transcripts into:
→ next steps
→ insights
→ tasks
→ sales assets
Supporting marketing workflows (content drafts, asset organisation, scheduling)
Feeding MD/CoS with structured GTM data and simple weekly summaries
Acting as a communication amplifier and operational anchor for everything the Founder touches
Not essential, but great if you have:
We’re building a company that reflects the world we want to live in.
You’ll resonate with our core values:
You’re not just here to do tasks. You’re here to help build a high-performance, values-aligned GTM engine, and learn a huge amount along the way.
(We can finalise numbers together based on experience, skills, and mutual expectations.)
We keep things straightforward. We care about fit, speed, clarity, and your ability to execute.
Application & Screening
We’ll review your CV and answers to a few short questions.
Intro Chat (30–45 mins)
A conversational call to understand your background, interests, and working style.
Practical Task (~3–4 hours)
A realistic exercise that demonstrates the type of work you’ll be doing while allowing us to assess your capacity to do it.
Final Interview (45–60 mins)
A deeper conversation with the Founder to explore how you think, how you work, and how we’d build together.
We move quickly and value clear communication — you won’t be left hanging.
Founder’s Associate – Task Assessment [Nov 2025]
Traineeship jobs are structured programs that combine learning and practical experience, helping you gain the skills needed to enter the workforce.
Students tend to (but not always) gain credits as they do the internship.
Traineeship jobs are the stepping stone to a successful career. Here’s why they’re invaluable:

Some traineeship jobs offer stipends or salaries, while others are unpaid. On theInterna you can whether the internship is paid or not before you apply.
Absolutely! We encourage you to apply for about 5 opportunities initially which really align to your interests. It is better to have fewer but more tailored applications
Not necessarily. Many traineeship jobs are designed for beginners and focus on skill development but make sure to really demonstrate (quantitatively where possible) your skills and achievements in your CV.
Traineeship jobs come in many forms—tech, marketing, sales, customer support, engineering, and more. Some focus on creative skills, others on business or data. You can filter by field or interest when browsing listings on theInterna.
It depends on the employer. Some roles require local language skills (like Spanish or French), while others only ask for fluent English. Each listing will mention language requirements clearly, so check before applying.
Yes, you can. theInterna typically works with students in their final year or those who graduated recently. If you’ve recently completed your degree and are looking to gain hands-on experience, a traineeship is a great next step.
Yes, especially in marketing, software, and customer experience roles. Many companies now offer remote traineeships or hybrid models, allowing flexibility if you can’t relocate.
Traineeships are often structured with training modules and soft skills development, while internships tend to focus more on workplace immersion. Traineeships may also lead to qualifications or support services.
Many traineeship jobs serve as a stepping stone to a permanent role. Some companies hire top-performing trainees or extend their contracts if there’s a good fit.
Typically, you’ll need an updated CV, a short motivation letter, and any relevant academic or work references. Some roles may ask for a portfolio or language proof.
Yes, if you’re working in a country where you’re not a resident. Visa types vary by country and job duration. theInterna provides guidance or links to help with the visa process.
Most traineeships range from 20 to 40 hours per week. Full-time roles are common, but some employers offer part-time schedules, especially for students or remote placements.
By interning at a partner startup of theInterna you will be sure to get real business exposure and give you the right grounds to be able to excel when there.
