Founders Associate
Clera
About the Role This is an early-stage, high-ownership role at a small but growing B2B automation and Go-To-Market (GTM) engineering agency focused on helping B2B companies scale their revenue operations. You'll work directly alongside the founder, owning meaningful parts of client projects and internal initiatives from day one. If you thrive in fast-moving, ambiguous environments and want to learn how modern B2B growth actually operates - this role is for you.
What You'll Do
Ideal Candidate Profile You're a low-ego, high-output person who owns problems and drives them to completion. You're comfortable with context-switching, small-team ambiguity, and figuring things out independently. You don't need hand-holding - you need interesting problems and the autonomy to solve them.
What You'll Do
- Client Delivery: Own parts of client projects including research, Clay builds, workflow setup, and QA. You'll work on real GTM problems every week.
- Operations: Keep things running smoothly - proposals, invoicing, documentation, and tool management. Build systems so nothing falls through the cracks.
- Research & Strategy: Dig into markets, competitors, and new opportunities to help shape what the agency offers and who it targets.
- Product Development: Help validate, build, and launch a GTM Career Accelerator program from the ground up.
- Content & Visibility: Turn learnings into content that builds the agency's reputation and thought leadership.
- 1+ years of experience in a business role - sales, marketing, GTM, RevOps, or similar.
- Touchpoints with GTM strategy, RevOps, or B2B SaaS product development (dealbreaker requirement).
- Strong fundamentals from a rigorous field (e.g., Computer Science, Business/BWL) - you think clearly and structure problems without over-engineering.
- A track record of shipping something : a side project, student org, scrappy internship, or early-stage startup role that proves you take initiative.
- Comfortable with Notion, Google Workspace, and Slack.
- Fluent English (written and spoken) - required.
- German is a strong plus - most clients are DACH-based.
- Familiarity with Clay, n8n, or Make is a bonus - we'll teach you.
