Support the General Manager to grow the company: build prospect lists and campaigns, join client calls, track commercial performance, develop partnerships, attend international trade shows and embassy events, and help structure the HubSpot CRM and dashboards.
6 months, full time, September start.
Over 6 months, you will help build the commercial engine of a company mid-transformation, working directly alongside the General Manager.
Companow helps international entrepreneurs set up and manage their structures in France, entirely in English, with clients from over 90 countries. We are part of the Anderson Global group, an international, private-equity-backed group present in 8 countries.
We are in a growth and strategic repositioning phase, moving toward higher-value startup clients. We have just been officially selected by Choose Paris Region, we are about to migrate to a new CRM, and we are building a strong partner network: lawyers, accountants, chambers of commerce, investment promotion agencies, embassies. A small team, but a wide institutional and commercial ecosystem.
The role
You work directly with the General Manager, no middle layer, on everything that makes the company grow. Our belief: go find prospects where they are, rather than waiting for them to come to us. That means fieldwork, embassies, trade shows, real meetings, not just campaigns behind a screen.
Responsibilities:
Business development
- Building and enriching prospect lists, preparing and running prospecting campaigns
- Joining client calls: understanding their projects, connecting them with the right partners in our network
- Tracking commercial performance
Partnerships and events
- Attending major international events: VivaTech, Web Summit, Choose France embassy events, meetings with regional investment agencies
- Preparing and joining meetings with strategic partners (lawyers, accountants, chambers of commerce), before and after
- Connecting clients with these partners, including in-person meetings
Tools and structuring
- Contributing to the structuring of our upcoming CRM: data, pipelines, dashboards
- Monitoring the startup ecosystem and development opportunities
- Any cross-functional topic as needed: that is also what a small team looks like
Requirements
Who we are looking for
Mindset first, perfect resume second:
- Versatile, agile, comfortable with ambiguity and shifting priorities
- A self-starter who proposes rather than waits for permission
- Curious, eager to learn broadly and fast
- Humble: here to learn as much as to contribute
- Strong interpersonal skills, comfortable representing the company with clients, partners, and on the ground
- Fluent English required
- Business school, Sciences Po, or university student, M1/M2 level
Benefits
What you will gain
- Direct access to the General Manager on genuinely strategic topics
- Rare exposure for an internship: client calls, international trade shows, embassy events, partner meetings, real-time decisions
- A role at the crossroads of business, institutions, and international relations, ideal if you are aiming for consulting, international development, or entrepreneurship next
- The environment of a private-equity-backed group, with the agility of a small team
- A role that can lead to a full-time offer
Practical details
- Duration: 6 months, full time
- Location: Paris 8th
- To apply: send your resume and two lines on what would make you choose this internship over another
