We believe that a healthy and active lifestyle should be accessible to all, and we are committed to making this a reality for all working Australians. About the Internship A WHEREFIT placement is different to your typical internship. This is an on-site placement where you will work directly with the co-founders of WHEREFIT and the wider team. We give you significant responsibility from Day 1 so we prefer to call you an Associate rather than an intern. You will develop and manage fitness/wellbeing partnerships for WHEREFIT, learning how to: pitch to and convince external stakeholders to join the WHEREFIT ecosystem - an important learning experience; manage and strengthen partner relationships through account management, and use CRM tools such as Active Campaign; maintain databases and analyse and report data, including in widely used tools like Airtable, MS Excel, Sheets and others; develop and implement strategic and tactical improvements to the partnerships business function as a whole; and collaborate efficiently and effectively with colleagues using Slack, Asana, Notion and Google Suite. You will be exposed to a dynamic, fast-growing technology startup located in Fishburners, one of Australia’s leading startup coworking spaces in the Sydney Startup Hub. This means you will have direct exposure to 270+ high quality startups of various maturities and industries. You will also have free member access to workshops and numerous learning, networking and startup community events within Fishburners and the hub. Examples of recent speakers have included the former Spotify CTO, Koala’s co-founder as well as key leads and managers from Google, Atlassian and Canva. You will be part of an exciting startup culture, working alongside talented and driven individuals, and contributing to the success of a company that is helping businesses do better for their employees. You will have access to all of our fitness and wellbeing perks too! We welcome applications from both students seeking internship experience and recent graduates eager to kick-start their careers.
