About Entrext
Entrext (Entrepreneur’s Next) is a venture studio that identifies problems, validates markets, builds products, and brings together founding teams to operate them.
We’re looking for someone who wants to work closely with us long-term, especially someone who is genuinely interested in startups, partnerships, founders, and building businesses.
This is a volunteer-based role. There is no fixed stipend attached to the role.
If you simply want to be associated with interesting startups, meet founders and operators, understand how businesses are built, and learn by doing, this could be a good fit.
What you’ll work on
1. Mentor Partnerships
We are constantly building a network of experienced founders, operators, specialists, and mentors who can contribute to the startups we are building.
You will:
- Receive relevant mentor profiles and research from our team
- Identify the right people to approach
- Reach out and start conversations
- Explain what Entrext is building and why their involvement could be valuable
- Follow up with interested people
- Get them onto a meeting with our team
- Help move the conversation towards a partnership
Your job is primarily opening and developing the relationship. Our team will handle the final conversation and closure.
2. Startup & Ecosystem Partnerships
We work with different startup programs, platforms, companies and ecosystems that can potentially support our portfolio.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You will:
- Research relevant partner programs
- Identify programs that our startups can benefit from
- Apply to relevant programs
- Find decision-makers when there is no obvious application route
- Reach out to them directly
- Initiate conversations
- Align meetings with relevant people
- Help us build long-term ecosystem relationships
Not every program will work out. A big part of the role is learning how to find the right person and create an entry point.
3. Venture / Operating Exposure
If you want to go beyond partnerships, you can also work alongside the startups and products we are building.
Depending on your interests, you may:
- Work with founders and early teams
- Help solve operational problems
- Research markets and customers
- Work on growth or distribution
- Understand how products are being built
- Participate in experiments
- Identify problems and figure out possible solutions
You don’t need to know everything beforehand.
The expectation is simple: figure things out, execute, and learn along the way.
Who are we looking for?
Someone who:
- Is genuinely curious about startups and entrepreneurship
- Can communicate confidently with new people
- Is comfortable reaching out to strangers
- Can research and identify the right people to approach
- Is persistent with follow-ups
- Takes ownership instead of waiting for instructions
- Can commit for the long term
- Wants exposure to real startup building, not just a certificate or title
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Prior partnership, sales, business development, or startup experience is useful but not mandatory.
What you get
- Direct exposure to founders and startup operators
- Experience building real partnerships
- Access to the Entrext startup ecosystem
- Opportunity to work alongside early-stage products
- Understanding of how startups are validated, built and operated
- Freedom to explore areas beyond partnerships
- Long-term opportunity to take on greater ownership based on contribution
This isn’t a role where we’ll give you a list of repetitive tasks every day.
You’ll be given context, resources and access. Your job is to figure out what to do with them.
Commitment
This is a volunteer, long-term opportunity.
We are not looking for someone who wants to spend two weeks here and move on.
If startups genuinely interest you and you want to stay close to what we’re building, even if you don’t know exactly where you want to contribute yet, we’d like to hear from you.
How to apply
Send us:
- Your LinkedIn profile
- A short introduction about yourself
- Why startups interest you
- Why you want to work with Entrext
- One example of something you have taken ownership of and figured out yourself
No fancy resume required.
