Fintech Business Internship Opportunity

About The Company

At Kolleno, we are building the future of cash management for B2B companies: from invoice chasing to payments reconciliation. Our software enables businesses to solve operational challenges and inefficiencies involved into B2B Payments and cash collection processes. In less than 18 months of operations, we have already acquired customers across several markets in Europe, the UK, US, Canada, and South Africa.

We have just attracted £4M (USD $5.4M) in seed funding led by Eurazeo and Stride.VC, with participation from Euler Hermes, HubSpot and several angel investors including Michael Pennington. We are here to win!

We are looking for a graduate or student, with an entrepreneurial spirit, a hands-on attitude, good people & data management skills, as well as a knack for details, to join us for a 3+ months paid internship. You’ll be working on data-driven sales, marketing and operations projects, across several products and business functions.

The role provides an ideal opportunity to learn the ins and outs of the software market as you will be dealing with Software-as-a-Service companies across 100s of industries.  The internship is best suited for well-rounded candidates who don’t mind a challenge, are looking to learn and be part of an environment where responsibilities are shared regardless of the job title.
