Growth Associate - CEO Office

About GeneralMind

GeneralMind builds AI Systems of Action for complex enterprise workflows. We deploy AI employees that automate messy operational handovers across supply chains — processing orders, validating invoices, coordinating suppliers, and handling exceptions directly on top of enterprise systems like SAP, Oracle, JDE, and Dynamics.

Our platform combines AI agents, operational context graphs, and real transaction data to achieve Autopilot-grade automation in real operational environments. We work closely with leading global companies across manufacturing, retail, and logistics to deploy AI into mission-critical workflows.

We are backed by a €12M pre-seed led by Lakestar, founded by ex-unicorn founders, and building one of the most exciting startup opportunities in Berlin right now.

About the role

You will join GeneralMind as a Growth Associate in the CEO Office, working directly with the founders to build the company's commercial engine from the ground up.

We are at the stage where speed, ownership, and execution matter most. Some foundations exist; much still needs to be built from zero. You will work across growth, GTM strategy, outbound, customer development, market research, partnerships, operations, and special projects. It is a high-ownership position at the centre of the company, close to the founders, with exposure to every part of building an early-stage startup.

You will learn how to build and scale a company from the inside — and either grow into a leadership role at GeneralMind or leave with the playbook to build your own company.

Who thrives here

We believe that throwing exceptional people at hard problems produces exceptional outcomes. The people who succeed here share these traits:

• Extreme ownership. You take responsibility without waiting for permission. When something is broken, unclear, or slow, you fix it.

• Relentless execution. You move fast, follow through, and do not stop because something becomes difficult or ambiguous.

• Founder mentality. You do not wait for a playbook. You enter new territory, figure things out, and turn ambiguity into action.

• Commercial instinct. You are excited by customers, markets, messaging, sales, and growth, and you want to understand what drives adoption and revenue.

• Systems first. You do not solve problems by adding manual effort forever — you build processes, automations, and repeatable systems that scale.

• Technical curiosity. You are excited by AI and want to understand the product deeply. You do not need to be an engineer, but you should be eager to engage with technical topics and learn fast.

What you will do

Working directly with the founders and leadership team, you will:

• Build GeneralMind's early GTM motion from scratch.

• Identify and prioritise customer segments.

• Run outbound and demand-generation experiments.

• Qualify inbound interest and manage early customer conversations.

• Support partnerships, strategic initiatives, and market entry.

• Create commercial materials, pitch decks, messaging, and sales assets.

• Set up CRM, outbound tooling, automation, and reporting systems.

• Take ownership of high-priority CEO Office projects as they arise.

What we are looking for

• 1–3 years of experience in a startup, consulting, banking, investing, or another high-performance environment.

• Strong analytical and communication skills.

• High agency, speed, and the ability to operate independently.

• Strong interest in AI, startups, and company building.

• Based in Berlin or willing to relocate.

• Fluent in English; German is a strong plus.

• Available to start ASAP or very soon.
