    Part-time
    Purley

    Founders Associate Contract / Freelance basis (with scope to turn permanent) 12-15 hours per week Hourly rate of £22 –£28 Remote first role - ideally based in or near South London for occasional in-person working We’re looking for a brilliant, curious, and creatively minded Founders Associate to work closely alongside a Creative founder. This is a high-trust, high-impact role for someone who loves ideas, organisation, and learning how businesses really work behind the scenes. If you’re the kind of person who enjoys juggling different projects, solving problems, and building systems,all while being immersed in a creative world, this role could be a perfect fit. About the Founder The founder operates across design and branding, moving fluidly between big-picture thinking and practical execution. Their work sits at the crossroads of creativity, strategy, and smart systems. They value clear thinking, curiosity, initiative, and people who take ownership of their work. In this role, you’ll get a front-row seat to how creative ventures are built, run, and scaled in real time. The Role - in a nutshell This is not a PA or admin role. Think of it more like being the founder’s right-hand person across both business and personal operations. You’ll help bring structure, clarity, and momentum to a fast-moving creative world - blending organisation, research, coordination, and proactive problem-solving. You’ll be trusted early, given responsibility, and encouraged to think independently rather than just follow instructions. What you’ll actually be doing Your work will be varied, dynamic, and interesting, including things like: • Managing inboxes and calendars across multiple ventures, • Keeping track of priorities, deadlines, and next steps, • Light-touch project oversight to keep things moving smoothly, • Preparing clear summaries, notes, and updates, • Liaising with team members, freelancers, and external partners, • Managing inbound leads and working alongside a virtual assistant, • Qualifying leads and eventually joining short intro calls, • Conducting independent research and presenting findings clearly, • Using AI and digital tools to speed up research and decision-making, • Exploring new tools, systems, and workflows to improve how things run, • Supporting early-stage ideas around products and systems, • Handling personal logistics like travel, bookings, and planning, • Organising digital files and improving personal systems, • Researching personal projects like trips, events, or experiences In short: you’ll help keep both the business and the founder running smoothly - creatively and intelligently. Who this role is perfect for This role would suit a recent graduate or early-career professional from a creative background such as design, arts, or the creative industries. Someone who is genuinely interested in entrepreneurship and how businesses are built. You’re likely to thrive in this role if you are: • Naturally organised but creatively minded, • Curious and proactive rather than reactive, • Comfortable working independently, • Excited by learning in a real-world environment, • Keen to be deeply involved in the workings of a creative business The skills you’ll need Essential: • Strong written communication, • Excellent organisational instincts, • Confidence using tools like Google Workspace and Notion, • Comfortable working remotely and independently, • Discreet, reliable, and trustworthy, • Enjoys research and synthesising information, • Creative mindset with an interest in ideas and execution Nice to have: • Interest in startups or entrepreneurship, • Familiarity with AI tools, • Basic understanding of how businesses work, • Experience supporting a founder or small creative team Why this is a special opportunity This isn’t just a “support role.” It’s a learning role. You’ll gain rare, behind-the-scenes exposure to founder-level decision-making across multiple creative ventures. You’ll be trusted, challenged, and genuinely involved in the reality of building businesses from the ground up. If you want to learn by doing rather than just watching from the sidelines, this role offers exactly that.
