Role - Founder’s Office – Strategy, Global Partnerships & Special Projects


About the role


This is a Founder’s Office role working directly with the leadership team on the most critical strategic priorities for international expansion and international partnerships. You will act as an extension of the founders, taking ambiguous, high-impact initiatives from idea to execution.

The role spans global partnerships, labour market intelligence projects, and international expansion of content vertical  — with real ownership, fast decision cycles, and exposure to global institutions.

This is not a support role. You will own outcomes.


What you will do -


1. Founder-Led Special Projects

  • Own and execute high-priority strategic initiatives driven directly by the founders (e.g., global university partnerships, new market entry plays).
  • Take vague problem statements and convert them into structured plans, pilots, and outcomes.
  • Drive groundwork independently — research, partner identification, first outreach, operating models, and execution plans.
  • Act as the single-threaded owner for cross-functional execution, aligning internal teams.


2. Global Partnerships & Institutional Strategy

  • Strategic Outreach to US Stem Universities
  • Global Academic Immersion Partnerships for South East / Middle East 
  • Design, Arts University partnerships - short certificates and long programs
  • Running Targeted Reachouts to Conference attendees where we have attended
  • Run coordination for these projects end-to-end
  • Partnerships to be struck immediately for degree, academic immersions and more
  • Build custom executive education partnerships with Financial Times Top 30 institutions
  • Setup a structural way to automate all this eventually
  • Analyzing and create long term partnerships for Board Infinity, Leadup Universe, InfyLearn and run founders office for these activities (on both demand and supply side)
  • Strike strategic partnerships in Saudi Arabia, UAE and the Middle East
  • Strike partnerships with Governments, Consulting firms, Tech firms, Staffing Companies, Employer Organizations and other organisations


What this role requires -


  • 1–3 years of experience in Founder’s Office, strategy, consulting, partnerships, higher education, edtech, or research-led roles.
  • Someone from a Tier 1 MBA background will be preferred
  • Proven ability to operate in ambiguity and build from zero to one.
  • Strong first-principles thinking and comfort making judgment calls with incomplete information.
  • Ability to work directly with founders and senior stakeholders — crisp thinking, high ownership, low ego.
  • Excellent research, synthesis, and communication skills (written + verbal).
  • Strong Outreach Mindset
  • Global exposure or experience with international institutions is a strong plus.


How will success be measure -


  • Quality and depth of international partnerships built.
  • Speed, clarity, and reliability in execution for the founders.


Why this role is special -


  • Direct access to founders and strategic decision-making.
  • Real ownership over international expansion initiatives.
  • Exposure to global education, policy, and workforce ecosystems.
  • A natural launchpad into senior leadership roles across strategy, partnerships, or global expansion.


Who this role is perfect for -


  • Someone who wants to build, not manage optics.
  • Thrives in fast-moving, founder-driven environments.
  • Thinks in systems but enjoys hands-on execution.
  • Excited by the future of work, skills, and global education.
