At Reapra, we want to address long-term social problems for the betterment of society. In our current form, we are a venture builder trying to create new ways of building businesses for the wellbeing of the next generation and beyond. Our approach for doing this focuses on cycles of research and practice as a means for understanding how each of us interacts with our environment and ourselves - and how we can sustain our commitment to long-term problems.
A big part of this is about creating a community where Reapra can work with founders and potential that are interested in co-creating this approach with Reapra.
You could be coming fresh out of retirement or fresh out of school. You could be making a mid-career switch or just trying to find another way to connect to society. You are curious about how you learn and like to explore with an open mind. You have some kind of connection to entrepreneurship (whether it be a passing fascination or hands-on experience in a startup). And you are interested in the role businesses can play in solving long-term social issues.
This internship is about working with our founders to support the way they learn so that they can better operate their business in the near-term and better engage with solving long-term social issues in the longer term. A significant part of this will also include you, as an intern, reflecting on your own ways of learning and how you feel motivated toward addressing long-term social issues.
Your main activities in this role will be:
Note: Applicants for this role are reviewed on a rolling basis.
You will ideally be based in Singapore, Japan, the Philippines, New Zealand or Hong Kong.
You will need to be confident communicating in written and spoken English. You will ideally also be capable of communicating in an additional Asian language e.g. Japanese, Tagalog, Cantonese, Mandarin, etc.
You will be working with a team that is primarily based in the GMT+8/+9 time zone and will need to communicate with them during those working hours. The role can also be either full-time or part-time and can be conducted either hybrid or remotely.
Reapra is a founder-first organization based in Asia Pacific, with a strategic focus on developing financially sustainable businesses solving long-term systemic problems.
