Business Development & Growth Intern

LAURENE Living | Singapore | Performance-Based

Are you energetic, entrepreneurial and excited by the idea of helping build a lifestyle brand from the ground up?

LAURENE Living is a Singapore-based botanical home & lifestyle brand creating premium, modern products designed to bring a sense of calm and freshness into everyday spaces.

We are looking for an energetic, commercially minded and entrepreneurial individual to work directly with the founder and help take LAURENE Living from a small founder-led business to a scalable brand.

This is not a conventional office internship. You will have the opportunity to get involved in real business development, sales, product development, AI and eventually building a scalable operating model.

Our digital marketing is already supported by an external marketing agency. Your primary focus will therefore be the physical, human side of the business — getting the products into people's hands, letting customers experience the scent and developing opportunities that cannot be achieved purely online.

What you will do

PHASE 1 — Physical Business Development & Sales

Your initial focus will be getting LAURENE Living physically in front of potential customers.

You may:

  • Introduce and demonstrate our products at suitable offline opportunities
  • Approach potential corporate clients, boutiques, lifestyle businesses, events and communities
  • Organise product sampling and scent experiences
  • Identify potential retail, corporate gifting and partnership opportunities
  • Speak directly with potential customers and understand their feedback
  • Build a database of potential business leads and partnership opportunities
  • Test different offline sales approaches and report what works
  • Represent the LAURENE Living brand professionally and confidently

The key objective: get people to experience the products physically and convert that experience into sales and partnerships.

PHASE 2 — Product Making & Development

As you become familiar with the brand, you may be trained to assist with the production of LAURENE Living products using the founder's formulations and processes.

This could include:

  • Preparing products according to established formulations
  • Learning our production and quality-control process
  • Assisting with small-batch production
  • Understanding product costing and margins
  • Helping improve production efficiency
  • Maintaining consistency and quality

You will be working with established formulations and processes rather than independently creating or modifying formulas without approval.

PHASE 3 — Build a Scalable Business Model

The longer-term objective is to move beyond the founder personally making and selling every product.

You will help explore:

  • How production can be delegated to other people
  • Training and standardising production processes
  • Developing simple SOPs
  • Creating a repeatable sales model
  • Building partnerships and distribution channels
  • Improving unit economics and margins
  • Using AI and automation to reduce administrative work
  • Developing a model that can grow without everything depending on the founder

The goal is to help turn LAURENE Living from a founder-operated business into a scalable business.

PHASE 4 — Regional Expansion

If the business reaches the appropriate stage, you may become involved in exploring expansion into other markets.

This could include:

  • Market research
  • Identifying potential distributors and partners
  • Testing demand in other countries
  • Understanding local customer preferences
  • Exploring regional e-commerce and retail opportunities
  • Supporting the development of an APAC expansion model

Who we are looking for

You may be a good fit if you are:

  • Energetic, outgoing and comfortable speaking to strangers
  • Naturally curious and commercially minded
  • Comfortable approaching people and starting conversations
  • Presentable and confident in customer-facing situations
  • Interested in marketing, business, design, entrepreneurship or technology
  • Interested in AI and how AI can be used to build a better business
  • Comfortable working independently without being given instructions for every task
  • Resourceful — you see a problem and think of a way to solve it
  • Interested in building something rather than simply completing assigned tasks
  • Comfortable with a fast-moving, founder-led environment
  • Interested in eventually building a career in technology, startups, entrepreneurship or business development

Students and recent graduates are welcome to apply.

Marketing, business, design, communications, entrepreneurship, technology or related backgrounds are particularly relevant.

This opportunity is different

You will work directly with the founder of LAURENE Living and see how a business is built from the ground up.

You will get exposure to:

Business Development → Sales → Product → Operations → AI → Scaling → Regional Expansion

If you are ambitious, this can potentially develop into a long-term role with increasing responsibility as the business grows.

Compensation

This is currently structured as a part-time / freelance entrepreneurial opportunity as an internship, with compensation primarily linked to business results.

The initial structure may include:

  • Commission on sales generated
  • Performance-based incentives
  • Profit-sharing arrangements for appropriate projects
  • A small stipend or other compensation may be discussed depending on experience, commitment and scope

The longer-term compensation structure can evolve as the business grows and your responsibilities increase.

This is not intended to be a traditional fixed-salary internship.

Working arrangement

  • Singapore-based
  • Part-time / freelance initially
  • Flexible hours, with a significant focus on offline business development
  • Some work can be done remotely
  • Physical meetings / product activities will take place in Singapore
  • Potential for a longer-term role if there is strong mutual fit

Location for interview

Physical interview in Singapore required.

Interview locations:

Tanjong Pagar or Somerset

How to apply

Please send:

  1. Your CV or LinkedIn profile
  2. A short introduction about yourself
  3. Why you are interested in LAURENE Living
  4. Your current studies / work situation
  5. Your availability
  6. One idea for how you would get 20 people in Singapore to smell and experience LAURENE Living products within your first month

We are particularly interested in people who take initiative rather than wait for instructions.

This is a small business with a big ambition. If you want to help build something rather than simply work in something, we would like to hear from you.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
