About Benjamin Button

Benjamin Button is a fast-growing UK consumer brand operating across beauty, wellness, supplements, retail and e-commerce.

Our products are sold through major online and retail channels, and we are building the next stage of the business across retail expansion, Amazon, partnerships, B2B, international markets and new product development.

We are an entrepreneurial company with ambitious plans for growth, and we're looking for an exceptional Founder’s Associate - Growth & Ventures to work closely with the leadership team and help drive the next stage of the business.

This is not a traditional assistant or administrative role.

You'll work across commercial growth, partnerships, retail, new ventures, research and company-wide projects. You'll be expected to spot opportunities, take ownership and turn ideas into results.

For the right person, this is an unusual opportunity to learn how a fast-growing consumer business is built from the inside while having a direct impact on its growth.

The Role

A significant part of your role will focus on growth, commercial opportunities and new ventures, with the remainder working across strategic projects and priorities throughout the business.

No two weeks are likely to look exactly the same.

Growth, Commercial & Partnerships

You'll help identify and create new growth opportunities, including:

• Identifying potential B2B customers, retailers and commercial partners
• Developing new retail and distribution opportunities
• Researching new markets, sectors and sales channels
• Supporting partnerships with retailers, influencers, distributors and other brands
• Building and managing a pipeline of commercial opportunities
• Preparing proposals and supporting negotiations
• Researching international expansion opportunities
• Identifying opportunities across Amazon, e-commerce and marketplaces
• Helping evaluate new products and categories
• Following opportunities from initial idea through to commercial outcome

We don't just want someone who can manage existing opportunities.

We want someone who can spot opportunities that others have missed and help turn them into revenue.

Founder’s Office Projects & Execution

You'll work on some of the company's most important projects, including:

• Researching new commercial opportunities
• Managing projects from idea through to completion
• Conducting competitor, market and pricing analysis
• Supporting retail launches and expansion
• Helping develop and test new growth initiatives
• Supporting new product launches
• Researching international markets and distribution opportunities
• Improving internal processes and ways of working
• Supporting recruitment and other strategic projects
• Using AI and automation to improve productivity and execution
• Preparing information and analysis to support commercial decisions
• Coordinating projects across sales, marketing, operations and external partners
• Following up actions and ensuring important projects actually get completed

You'll have visibility across much of the company rather than being confined to one department.

Who We're Looking For

We're deliberately flexible on experience.

You might be an ambitious university graduate looking for an unusually entrepreneurial first role, or you might already have several years of experience in start-ups, business development, consulting, e-commerce, retail, operations or another commercial environment.

Your mindset matters more to us than the number of years on your CV.

You should be:

• Entrepreneurial - you naturally look for opportunities and better ways of doing things
• Commercially minded and interested in how brands grow
• Confident communicating with customers, partners and senior people
• Comfortable creating new relationships and opening doors
• Highly organised and able to manage multiple projects
• Analytical and comfortable researching unfamiliar subjects quickly
• Resourceful - when you don't know someth

Pay: £30,000.00-£35,000.00 per year
