Drive growth in a future unicorn.
Jumpstart is the startup career accelerator. We help ambitious people land sales roles at top UK startups, fuelling growth for both their careers and the startups they join.
How does it work?
- Sales roles in fast-growing startups - tired of scouring through jobs boards & unanswered applications? Get exclusive access to a curated list of top startup sales roles & receive a response on your applications within days.
- Founders pitch to you - as a Jumpstarter once said, “you can’t get vibes from a job description.” Pre-recorded video pitches from founders bring roles & a startup to life so you can ensure it’s a great fit for you.
- Connect directly with founders - we’ve made the job search a two-way process. Apply to startups and receive applications from startups who want to chat to you. There are no recruiters on Jumpstart so you can connect directly with the hiring teams.
- Individual interview support - forget awkward group training calls. Receive individual interview support, access training guides and chat to Jumpstart alumni. You’ll have everything you need to land your dream role.
- Ongoing career growth - landing a role is only the start of your journey with Jumpstart. You’ll join the Jumpstart community and gain access to all the tools you need to smash your role. Think mentorship, panel events, training & more.
On average, it takes ~4 weeks to receive an offer and you can participate in the programme whilst in full-time work.
