ABOUT LEMON.MARKETS 🍋

We enable anyone to be an investor. Our mission is to grow investing opportunities for all European customers and businesses. By

empowering FinTechs, banks, and wealth managers to offer investment products, we help create financial well-being for their

customers.

lemon.markets is a Brokerage-as-a-Service platform: simple digital access to capital markets through a single API. Our API-first

infrastructure abstracts brokerage complexity with a well-documented API, a self-service customer operations portal, and a clear

regulatory framework, so partners can launch customer-centric, compliant products in weeks, not months.

As part of the dwpbank group, we’re adding a layer of resources and expertise to benefit from, while continuing to operate as an

independent fintech with our own team, product, and start-up identity under the dwpbank umbrella.

YOUR MISSION:

As a Founder’s Associate Intern, you will support the leadership team here at lemon.markets, making sure the business grows & runs

smoothly, ensuring alignment across all business areas.

You will work on a selection of diverse projects ranging from Strategy & Operations, to Business Development & Go-to-Market. These

projects are hard to forecast and will highly depend on needs evolving from the phase lemon.markets is in, as well as hugely on

your interests and the skill set you already bring along.

You’ll get the best of both worlds: Experience first-hand how an early-stage start-up is being built, enjoy & benefit from a

fast-paced and flexible environment, while working closely with experienced experts in their field. That means you will not only

support and leverage your skill set, but learn & grow by taking on projects with a high degree of ownership.

YOU WILL:

Support the leadership team on strategic projects: Help develop business strategies & execute on them, making sure we stay

aligned with our company goals & objectives.

Further, define & develop our GTM strategy: Continuously research and analyse market trends, conduct competitor activities, and

stay up to date with the changing Brokerage landscape in Europe.

Drive various strategic initiatives to help us prepare for our growth post launch, ramping up business operations and ensuring

operational excellence.

Critically question, analyse and improve existing processes. Constantly aim to improve our existing setup, build world-class

processes around it, that enable us to have a smoothly running organisation.

WHO ARE YOU:

You have a background in Business Administration, Economics, Finance, Computer science or a similar area.

You are an entrepreneurial problem solver. You strive to take ownership of the tasks you get and apply your analytical skills,

structured thinking, and independent working style towards solving them.

You have gained hands-on experience in a fast-paced environment. You understand what working in a startup or a similar lean

organisation is like. Ideally, you have worked in an early-stage startup, fintech, consulting, tech company or similar.

You are ready and willing to take ownership. “This is not my job!” is not part of your vocabulary - you identify problems, take

initiative to take them on, and challenge the status quo.

You cope well with frequent change and ambiguity. Changing tasks & requirements excite you. You are able to think logically,

break down complex problems and prioritise between multiple tasks on your table.

You have a hands-on mentality. You default into action, want to gather first learnings fast, and iterate on the progress along

the way.

You are a team player. Working together as a team and sharing knowledge comes naturally to you.

You have no problem with learning new tools and skills on the go. You try to solve problems with more things than the ones you

already know. We will always enable you with that, but your willingness has to come first.

How we take care of you:

🚀 Compensation package: Our Interns are compensated at a fixed rate of €2,425 per month.

💎 Make a real impact: Our start-up environment gives you the room to start your career, explore areas outside your role, and

build expertise through ownership. As we mature and are backed by dwpbank, we’re adding a layer of resources and expertise you

are benefiting from.

🕑 Flexible working hours: We trust people to choose when they work best and avoid a rigid 9 to 5 mindset. You decide on the

rhythm that helps you do your best work, with only shared core hours from 12:00 to 16:00 to support collaboration.

🏢 Hybrid work setup: You can work from Berlin within a hybrid model. However, we strongly encourage our internship “lemoneers”

to spend at least 3 days or more per week in the office. Being on-site allows you to learn faster, provides a more immersive

experience, helps you collaborate more effectively with the team, and ensures you fully benefit from hands-on support.

📈 Grow with us: We take your personal development seriously! You’ll get regular mentorship and stretch opportunities, plus a

clear career development framework with frequent feedback conversations so you always know where you stand, and what to do to

level up.

🌱 People & culture: You’ll feel our culture in the small things, like polaroids from our lemoneers’ first day, Friday food

market strolls at Maybachufer, and our monthly new-joiner breakfast. But also in the bigger things: celebrating the onboarding

of new partners, growing our teams, and owning a strong discussion culture.

🏝 Workation: Get out of here! At lemon.markets you can work remotely from anywhere in the EU for up to 10 consecutive days at

a time, and up to 60 days per year in total.

As an equal opportunity employer, lemon.markets is committed to building an inclusive workplace. The company welcomes people from

all different backgrounds, including age, citizenship, ethnic and racial origins, gender identities, individuals with

disabilities, marital status, religions and ideologies, and sexual orientations to apply.

If you feel this role could be a great match for you even if you don’t tick every box, we’d still love to hear from you, please

apply.

Strategy Associate to the CGO (Intern) (f/m/d)

Hive

Berlin•Publicerad: 9 juli•Sista ansökan: 16 aug.

The Position Hive is scaling to become Europe’s default operating system for commerce, and our Growth engine is at the heart of that ambition. We’re looking for an exceptional Founder Associate / Strategy Associate to our Chief Growth Officer to sit at the nerve center of that engine for 6 months, own problems that would normally land on a McKinsey Engagement Manager’s desk, and actually ship the answers. This is a zero-to-one internship. You’ll work shoulder-to-shoulder with our CGO on the highest-leverage questions Hive is facing: market entries, pricing architecture, GTM motion redesigns, and the board-level narratives behind them. You won’t fetch coffee. You’ll build the models, drive the analyses, and present the recommendations that shape where Hive goes next. If you’re the person who excelled at a top program, cracked the McKinsey case-prep circuit, and now wants 4-6 months of real operator exposure before you take the BCG/McKinsey/Bain offer, or before you start the venture you’ve already been sketching out, this role was built for you. Your Mission You’ll be the CGO’s force multiplier. Every week, you’ll turn an ambiguous, high-stakes strategic question into a crisp, defensible answer, and then help make it happen. Your Responsibilities * Own CGO-level strategic projects end-to-end: from framing the problem, to structuring the analysis, to landing the recommendation with the leadership team * Build the models: unit economics, pricing simulations, cohort analyses, market sizings, and business cases for new market entries and product bets * Run deep-dive analyses across our commercial funnel: pipeline health, segment performance, sales productivity, churn drivers, and turn findings into concrete interventions * Prepare board, investor, and all-hands materials with the CGO, the kind of decks that get pressure-tested in front of Tiger Global, Earlybird, and Picus Capital * Design and run strategic experiments with Sales, Account Management, Marketing, and Partnerships, and measure what actually moved the needle * Synthesize competitive and market intelligence into decisions: how Hive positions against Shopify, Amazon, 3PLs, and category entrants across Europe * Act as chief of staff to the CGO: driving the weekly operating rhythm, prioritizing the inbox and calendar, and ensuring nothing important drops Your Profile * A distinctive academic track record: Dean’s List, scholarships, or thesis awards are strong signals * Consulting-track pedigree: you’ve prepped seriously for McKinsey, BCG, or Bain interviews. You think in MECE, you’re analytically ruthless in Excel, and you can structure a slide in your sleep * Prior exposure at the highest bar: internships at MBB, top VC-backed scaleups (Trade Republic, N26, Revolut, Flix, Sennder), PE, or IB. Founder or founding-team experience is a huge plus * Analytically ruthless, commercially sharp: you can go from a messy Metabase export to a board-ready insight in an afternoon. SQL or Python is a strong plus * Operator instincts, not just analyst instincts: you don’t stop at the recommendation; you drive execution and carry things across the finish line * Exceptional written and verbal English (C1+); German is a strong plus given our large DACH footprint * High agency, low ego: you move fast, you ask the blunt question in the room, and you’d rather be useful than look good politically * Available for 4-6 months starting ASAP: Pflichtpraktikum, gap semester, or pre-MBA window all work Our Offering * Proximity to the decision table: you’ll sit in every meeting that matters, strategy, board prep, exec offsites, investor updates. Most people don’t get this exposure until their late 20s * A resume line you can’t buy: Founder / Strategy Associate to the CGO of one of DACH’s top-scaling scaleups * A guaranteed conversion path: top performers get a full-time offer into Strategy, BizOps, Chief of Staff, or a GTM leadership track, with a clear 2-year path to running a function * Work with exceptional people: our team includes alumni from McKinsey, Amazon, Shopify, Google, TikTok, and Trade Republic * Real autonomy from day one: your impact drives your progression, not your past titles * Tools to thrive: MacBook, Claude Pro & Lovable Business Plan, modern office at Alexanderplatz, 30 vacation days prorated, flexible hours, and regular team events including company-wide offsites * A front-row seat to the €200B operations opportunity in European commerce About us We're revolutionizing e-commerce operations. At Hive, we empower brands to excel in the digital commerce era through our innovative operations platform. By combining cutting-edge technology with a curated network of top-tier operations partners, we deliver measurable results. Our comprehensive platform streamlines the entire operational chain through a single, intuitive interface. Since our founding in 2020, we've rapidly grown to become one of Europe's leading operations platform, partnering with hundreds of innovative brands. With strategic locations in Berlin, Paris, Milan, Madrid, London, and Amsterdam. Backed by prestigious investors including Tiger Global, Earlybird, and Picus Capital, we're scaling our impact across Europe. Diversity and inclusion are core to our success. We actively cultivate an environment where every team member, regardless of background, can thrive. We welcome talent from all walks of life, regardless of religion, ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, or disability. At Hive, authenticity and professional growth go hand in hand.
