Founder’s Associate / Management Trainee

We are looking for a sharp, practical, and highly driven entry-level professional to join our team as a Founder’s Associate.

In this role, you will work directly alongside our two Co-Founders, splitting your time between our administrative office and our production factory floor. This is a hands-on "learn-by-doing" opportunity designed to give you complete visibility into how our business runs, solves problems, and scales.

Our goal is simple: to mentor, train, and build you up to take on major operational or executive management responsibilities as our company expands.

What You Will Do

Your time will be split across two key areas of the business:

Office & Administration (with Sabrina):

• Assist with core administrative operations, compliance, customer communication, and procurement.
• Organize files, track operational data, and support financial/invoicing workflows.
• Help design and implement organized systems to streamline office processes.

Factory & Operations (with the Factory Co-Founder):

• Shadow daily factory floor operations, production tracking, and workflow management.
• Gain an understanding of floor-level bottlenecks, job orders, and quality control.
• Act as a clear line of communication between office administration and factory operations.

Who Should Apply

• Education/Experience: University degree or diploma (Engineering, Operations, Business Management, or related fields are a plus, but all backgrounds are welcome).
• Communication: Excellent verbal and written communication skills—you must feel comfortable speaking to everyone from shop floor workers to clients.
• Adaptability: Comfortable switching gears between a professional office setup and a active factory floor.
• Work Ethic: Strong attention to detail, high curiosity, and a willingness to roll up your sleeves and learn complex operations from the ground up.

What We Offer

• Direct Mentorship: Daily access to both business owners with direct executive mentorship.
• Rapid Career Growth: A clear trajectory toward key operational management or executive roles.
• Hands-On Experience: Real-world operational exposure—no mindless corporate busywork.

Pay: From R7 000,00 per month

Application Question(s):

• Describe a time you had to learn a complex process or system quickly. How did you approach it, and what was the result?

License/Certification:

• Drivers License (Preferred)

Work Location: In person
