Role Overview:

We are hiring Entrepreneurs-in-Residence (EIRs) to build recent businesses from zero inside MedhaviOne. Each EIR reports to the Founders and owns one mandate end to end.

Why Now

Higher education is being rebuilt, and the people who build it now will shape the sector for decades.

- Degrees are giving way to skills.

- Classroom-only learning is giving way to work-integrated learning.

- One-size-fits-all programmes are giving way to new models designed with employers.

For years, the strongest graduates from top institutes walked past education. That is changing. The capital, talent and ambition now entering the sector mean it is moving fast.

This role is a 2-3 year founder apprenticeship, fully paid. You build a real business, with our partner network and university behind you.

The Mandates

We are hiring for two mandates. Apply for one.

Mandate

Where it can lead

Best-fit background

EIR, Enterprise Growth

- Pull in marketing, technology, academic and partnerships teams to get things done.

- Build a lean team as the business proves itself.

- For New Learning Brand: EdTech experience or new-age education businesses.

- For both: Experience running a P&L;, or part of one.

How yo work

- Owner. If it reaches the Founders, you have already checked it.

- Detail-driven. You meet deadlines, and flag early when you cannot.

- Proud of your work. You build things and businesses you would put your name on.

- Thick-skinned. The mandate will change as we learn, and you adapt.

- Direct access. You work alongside the Founders and the leadership team.
