Job offer
Founders Associate - Growth

Available from March 17, 2026

Building a company from the ground up alongside its founders sounds exciting to you?

At DivTax, we're revolutionizing the way private and institutional investors reclaim withholding tax — making tax-efficient investing simple and accessible for everyone. We've built the world's first self-service platform for withholding tax reclamation for retail investors — and we're just getting started.

Headquartered in Hamburg and backed by leading tech investors from the finance world, we're pursuing ambitious goals for the years ahead — and are looking for exceptional people to help us achieve them.

Help us break down tax barriers and make tax-efficient investing accessible to all. We're a small team passionate about strengthening Europe's investment culture and promoting international portfolio diversification. If you want to be part of something big from day one — we'd love to hear from you!

Your role

As Founders Associate in Business Development, you'll work directly with our co-founder Nicolas on high-impact projects that have a direct effect on the entire company. Your focus will be on strategy, go-to-market, and growth topics — but you'll be needed across all the areas a founder deals with day in, day out.

Tasks

Be the right hand of our co-founder Nicolas and gain insight into every facet of the founder's day-to-day

  • Identify new business opportunities and partnerships that advance our mission: simplifying tax reclamation processes for investors and maximizing dividend returns

  • Support the development and execution of strategic plans to expand our platform's market presence nationally and internationally

  • Conduct well-founded market research to identify trends and growth potential in the financial industry

  • Support the founder in preparing presentations and pitches for potential B2B clients as well as existing and prospective investors

  • Take on operational tasks and directly impact our customers' returns

Requirements

  • Enthusiasm for equity markets and a genuine interest in FinTechs

  • Creative eye for growth opportunities and a natural talent for networking

  • Entrepreneurial thinking and a proactive, hands-on mentality

  • No fear of responsibility

  • A fast-paced environment motivates you

  • Good German language skills

  • Early-stage startup experience is a big plus

Benefits

  • You tell us what you need to be productive — we take care of it

  • Flexible working hours — because everyone has their own rhythm

  • We're an office-first team, but occasional remote work is no problem

  • Snacks and drinks are on us

  • Fair salary

  • Annual workations with the team

  • Free invitations to our regular DivDrinks and DivPadel events :)

  • Wellpass membership

  • A bright, modern office with a great atmosphere

What to expect after applying

We take the time to personally read every application — and promise to get back to you within five days. If we're excited, here's what the process looks like:

  1. Meet Nicolas — 30 min. virtual

  2. Take-home case study presentation — 60 min. virtual

  3. Meet the team — 60 min. in person at a bar :)

  4. Offer

We're looking for someone who can ideally start as a paid intern or working student, with the intention of bringing them on full-time afterward.
