Founder's Associate - Internship (f/m/x)

We are looking for ambitious students (3+ months) who want to go beyond a “typical internship” to shape the Go-to-Market. As a Founder’s Associate Intern at Pactos, you will work directly with the founders (ex-BCG, WHU) and take full ownership of projects from day one.

Pactos is a fast-growing B2B SaaS startup transforming how companies manage their external workforce. Our AI-powered platform integrates the entire process end-to-end, enabling organizations to manage external staff in a compliant, transparent, and efficient way. Backed by renowned investors (HTGF, StepStone CEO, Peri Owner) and trusted by leading customers, we are building the category leader in this space.

• 🚀 Drive Go-to-Market: Support and execute our GTM strategy – from lead generation to process optimization – in close collaboration with the founding team.
• 🧩 Business Development: Run your own projects across Sales, Marketing, and Operations, designing scalable processes and new initiatives.
• 💡 Challenge & solve: Formulate hypotheses with the founders, validate them hands-on in the market, and create data-driven insights that shape strategic decisions.
• 🎯 Engage with customers: Work closely with HR, Procurement, and Operations leaders to identify customer needs and translate them into actionable improvements.
• 🛠 Prototype & innovate: Use no-code & AI tools to quickly automate and improve workflows.
• 🤝 Be a sparring partner: Work side-by-side with the founders on strategic and operational challenges – gaining firsthand experience in building a company from the ground up.

• Currently in at least your 5th semester (Bachelor), Gap Year, or early Master’s in Business, Management, Tech or related fields
• Top of your class: excellent academic performance and/or outstanding extracurricular achievements
• First experience in fast-paced environments (consulting, scaleup, VC, or similar)
• Hands-on mentality, i.e., you are proactive, structured, and willing to go the extra mile
• Analytical mindset combined with strong communication skills
• Fluent in German and English
• Bonus: first exposure to no-code/AI tools

• Full ownership and responsibility from day one
• Direct collaboration with the founders and exposure to high-level strategy
• The opportunity to shape the future of work as part of a fast-scaling SaaS startup
• A steep learning curve in a dynamic, ambitious team with top-tier colleagues
• A modern workplace in central Munich and a team culture with ambition and fun (incl. events like Oktoberfest)
