Germany

At 8returns, we're transforming one of the most frustrating, environmentally damaging and costly aspects of e-commerce — returns. We built a technology that automates the returns process for retailers and makes data-driven decisions to connect each return to its next best use.

We're still in the scrappy startup phase, so we are looking for people who are comfortable with ambiguity and having wide impact. We've been remote-first since Day 1, and care a ton about communication, autonomy, curiosity, and initiative.

## Tasks

As a Founders Associate, you will take on a versatile role with high-impact opportunities. You’ll work closely with the founders on strategic projects and operational tasks. Your responsibilities will include:

 • **Strategy Development:** Supporting the development and implementation of growth strategies, including new business models, market research, and competitor analysis.

 • **Project Management:** Leading and coordinating cross-functional projects to enhance the efficiency and success of 8returns.

 • **Business Operations:** Optimizing internal processes and structures to make our team and workflows more efficient.

 • **Investor Relations:** Assisting with the preparation of presentations, pitches, and reports for investors.

 • **Ad-Hoc Tasks:** Providing flexible support in daily operations, whether in sales, marketing, or product management.

## Requirements

 • **Language Skills:** Fluency in both German and English (spoken and written).

 • **Experience:** A background in **startups, consulting, venture capital, finance**, or a related field is highly valued.

 • **Entrepreneurial Mindset:** You are proactive, resourceful, and comfortable taking ownership of projects in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.

 • **Analytical Skills:** You can structure complex problems and make data-driven decisions.

 • **Independence:** You are a self-starter who takes initiative and ownership without waiting for detailed instructions.

 • **Communication Skills:** You can communicate effectively with internal and external stakeholders.

 • **Flexibility:** You thrive in a dynamic environment where priorities can shift quickly.

 • **Tech-Savviness:** You’re comfortable using new tools and technologies to support our processes.

## Benefits

 • **Diverse Responsibilities:** A unique opportunity to actively shape the growth of a startup in its early stages.

 • **Direct Collaboration:** Work closely with the founders and gain insights into all areas of the business.

 • **Personal Development:** Individual support and mentoring to help you grow your skills and career.

 • **Flexibility:** A dynamic work environment with plenty of room for initiative and creativity.

 • **Long-Term Opportunities:** The chance to grow with the company and take ownership of your own projects.

 • **Equity Options:** Be part of our success and own a piece of the company’s future.
