About the Position
Start date: February or March 2027 Duration: 3-6 months
By scaling HOLY from zero to over €250M in total revenue in under five years, we’ve grown from a D2C start-up into one of Europe’s fastest-growing consumer brands. As we continue expanding across channels and markets, strong structure, clear communication, and reliable execution are becoming increasingly important.
As the Founder’s Associate Intern, you’ll report to the Corporate Development Lead and work closely with the Founders and our Business Development and Special Projects team across a mix of strategic and operational topics. Your work helps to keep projects organised, ensures teams stay aligned, and creates the clarity needed in a fast-moving environment.
In practice, this means preparing presentations and internal documents, analysing data and translating it into simple insights, organising and documenting meetings, coordinating timelines and to-dos, and supporting the overall planning and structure behind key projects. You’ll also take on administrative and enabling tasks that keep the organisation running smoothly and help teams make decisions based on clean inputs.
Throughout the internship, you’ll gain exposure to topics across Organisational Development, Strategic Planing and Execution, Product Development as well as Regulatory and Compliance. You’ll work closely with leaders across multiple teams and get a realistic, hands-on view into how a high-growth consumer brand operates behind the scenes. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys structure, problem-solving, and learning in a dynamic environment.
Responsibilities:
- Build and structure strategic presentations (e.g. board updates, performance overviews, project summaries) that clearly communicate insights and progress.
- Analyze and visualize data, turning numbers into concise, actionable insights to support decision-making.
- Prepare and facilitate meetings — from structuring agendas and gathering inputs to capturing next steps and ensuring follow-through in Notion.
- Coordinate cross-functional projects across teams and ensure timelines and priorities stay on track.
- Support planning & administration, such as internal kickoffs, team sessions, and light logistics — executed with ownership and attention to detail.
- Learn directly from HOLY’s Founders and leadership and participate in strategic discussions shaping our next phase of growth.
