Alternative Venture Building Management Associate

At Reapra, we're pioneering an innovative approach to venture building. Our core belief is in nurturing potential founders by dedicating ample time to develop their vision for addressing long-term systemic issues. We view our current startups as the initial building blocks of a brighter future for generations to come. Our primary focus is on individuals and their commitment to solving these very long-term challenges while not relying on trending technology or hot business ideas. This distinctive approach influences how we identify potential founders, initially through in-depth self-exploration, and how we operate internally-setting us apart from conventional companies and VC firms.

Your traineeship will entail a discernment process called Intensive Foundation Design where you will use a model of self-understanding as a personal blueprint to enhance your learning and work throughout the project tasks and think about your own career options in the future. After completion of Foundation Design, you will dive right into a very dynamic, fast-changing set of project-related tasks while building new types of venture communities along the way.
