Partnerships — Volunteer

Entrext | Volunteer | Remote

About Entrext

Entrext (Entrepreneur’s Next) is a venture studio that identifies problems, validates markets, builds products, and brings together founding teams to operate them.

We’re looking for someone who wants to work closely with us long-term, especially someone who is genuinely interested in startups, partnerships, founders, and building businesses.

This is a volunteer-based role. There is no fixed stipend attached to the role.

If you simply want to be associated with interesting startups, meet founders and operators, understand how businesses are built, and learn by doing, this could be a good fit.

What you’ll work on

- Mentor Partnerships

We are constantly building a network of experienced founders, operators, specialists, and mentors who can contribute to the startups we are building.

You will

Receive relevant mentor profiles and research from our team

Identify the right people to approach

Reach out and start conversations

Explain what Entrext is building and why their involvement could be valuable

Follow up with interested people

Get them onto a meeting with our team

Help move the conversation towards a partnership

Your job is primarily opening and developing the relationship. Our team will handle the final conversation and closure.

- Startup & Ecosystem Partnerships

We work with different startup programs, platforms, companies and ecosystems that can potentially support our portfolio.

You will

Research relevant partner programs

Identify programs that our startups can benefit from

Apply to relevant programs

Find decision-makers when there is no obvious application route

Reach out to them directly

Initiate conversations

Align meetings with relevant people

Help us build long-term ecosystem relationships

Not every program will work out. A big part of the role is learning how to find the right person and create an entry point.

- Venture / Operating Exposure

If you want to go beyond partnerships,



you can also work alongside the startups and products we are building.

Depending on your interests, you may:

Work with founders and early teams

Help solve operational problems

Research markets and customers

Work on growth or distribution

Understand how products are being built

Participate in experiments

Identify problems and figure out possible solutions

You don’t need to know everything beforehand.

The expectation is simple: figure things out, execute, and learn along the way.

Who are we looking for?

Someone who

Is genuinely curious about startups and entrepreneurship

Can communicate confidently with recent people

Is comfortable reaching out to strangers

Can research and identify the right people to approach

Is persistent with follow-ups

Takes ownership instead of waiting for instructions

Can commit for the long term

Wants exposure to real startup building, not just a certificate or title

Prior partnership, sales, business development, or startup experience is useful but not mandatory.

What you get

Direct exposure to founders and startup operators

Experience building real partnerships

Access to the Entrext startup ecosystem

Opportunity to work alongside early-stage products

Understanding of how startups are validated, built and operated

Freedom to explore areas beyond partnerships

- Long-term opportunity to take on greater ownership based on contribution

This isn’t a role where we’ll give you a list of repetitive tasks every day.

You’ll be given context, resources and access. Your job is to figure out what to do with them.

Commitment

This is a volunteer, long-term opportunity.

We are not looking for someone who wants to spend two weeks here and move on.

If startups genuinely interest you and you want to stay close to what we’re building, even if you don’t know exactly where you want to contribute yet, we’d like to hear from you.
