So you want to be an entrepreneur?
“The best way to predict the future is to create it.” - Peter Drucker
Not everyone can be an entrepreneur and not everyone has the courage to step outside the sandpit of convention to play in the park of freedom. PlaceMatch is a tech company founded by 2 young entrepreneurs whose burning passion to reform the experience of finding a home resulted in the company being formed. We have a young and dynamic team full of energy and we’re looking for someone to join us. Not as a marketing intern, or a communications intern, or a content or business development intern. We’re looking for someone to join us as an Apprentice Entrepreneur where you will have the opportunity to be attached to one of the Co-Founders and learn everything about what they do.
Your job scope is simple. In order to learn you have to “Do”. You will learn to do everything that an entrepreneur does. This includes writing proposals, managing the finances of a start-up, following up with customers, scheduling and arranging meetings with foreign companies for regional roadshows.
It seems like a tall order, but there are 2 points to note. You will gradually be immersed into an entrepreneurial environment. We won’t expect you to be able to do everything from day 1. The second point is that this is as realistic an experience as you will ever get to being an entrepreneur without bearing the risk yourself. You will learn the lessons needed to become an entrepreneur without having the risks involved with being one. If you feel like you are up to the challenge, send us an e-mail and we will give you more information on how you can apply.
Responsibilities:
Your only responsibility is to have a burning desire to learn and a positive approach to work (and life too!). You must truly want in your heart to become an entrepreneur and be willing to do whatever it takes to do so. The Apprentice Entrepreneur program is unlike any other internship program. For highly committed candidates, it is the learning opportunity of a lifetime.
Requirements:
At PlaceMatch, we don't care about your academic qualifications. First and foremost, we look at your attitude and your outlook on life. You must however have the following:
• A can-do attitude
• A solution oriented approach
• Sense of ownership and responsibility
Benefits:
• Mentorship from management and advisors
• Exposure to fast-moving, problem-solving start-up environment
• Exposure to our network of contacts in Sg and globally (entrepreneurs, investors, creatives, and more!)
• Potential for full-time position in SG or region
