Startup Scout for new iconic Corporate Accelerator - powered by Rainmaking

Salary Competitive

Join us in building the coolest corporate accelerator program for one of the most iconic Swedish companies. This program is the first large external innovation initiative from our client partner, and is one of our most exciting projects ever in Rainmaking. The bootcamp will be a unique opportunity for a few selected startups to deeply engage with one of the world’s most iconic brands. To build the best possible program, we need you!


The role:

Together with the Lead Scout and our accelerator team, your role is to identify and communicate with the hottest new startups in the world. This includes online and offline research of startups, planning and attending startup scouting events around the world, and meeting and evaluating startups. The job will include travelling outside Denmark.

What you’re awesome at:

  • You’re enthusiastic about the international start-up ecosystem and eager to become part of it
  • You’re up to speed with the newest technology trends and hottest startups of today
  • You’re a great researcher and enjoy “detective” work - being creative in your approach to search
  • You’re used to working with online productivity tools and databases
  • You’re a great team player, but also able to work on projects autonomously
  • You’re ambitious, highly motivated and buzzing with energy
  • You’re super keen on learning fast and are not afraid to roll up your sleeves when needed

Candidates should ideally have experience working with startups and/or knowledge about the startup ecosystem. We are looking for someone who has experience within search and who are creative in their approach. However, we believe in learning by doing and we measure people by how far they walk the talk. There will be many opportunities, but it’s your job to seize them.

Our side of the bargain:

  • A unique opportunity to help build the first external innovation program for one of the most iconic companies in the world
  • Possibility for you to leave your mark on multiple startups
  • Access to world-class mentors and experts to build your network and inspire
  • Become a part of an amazing team
  • Experience working in a dynamic and fast paced environment
