Operations and Research Intern/Associate
Confidential Fintech Company
Remote | Part-Time | Commission + Bonuses + Potential Equity
About the Opportunity
A founder-stage fintech company is building operating infrastructure for investment managers, family offices, wealth firms and other financial-services organizations.
The product is live. The company has working demonstrations, sales materials, prospect lists, scripts and an established outreach process.
We are hiring a confident, persistent outbound salesperson to call qualified prospects, start professional conversations and book meetings for the founder.
Additional company and product details will be shared with selected candidates during the interview process.
The Role
Your primary responsibility is straightforward:
Call qualified financial-services prospects and book meetings.
You will:
Make outbound calls using company-provided lead lists
Speak with investment, wealth-management and financial-services professionals
Use approved scripts while developing a natural delivery
Navigate gatekeepers and identify appropriate decision-makers
Conduct structured follow-up through phone and approved outreach channels
Book qualified discovery meetings for the founder
Track calls, conversations, objections and follow-ups
Help improve scripts and outreach strategy based on market feedback
The founder handles product demonstrations, pilots, negotiations and closing.
What Is Already Provided
You will receive:
Researched lead lists
Defined target customer profiles
Call scripts and objection responses
Email and LinkedIn templates
Product demonstrations
Marketing and sales materials
Founder support for qualified opportunities
A live product ready to present
This is not a lead-list-building role. Your value comes from execution, phone confidence, persistence and results.
Compensation
This is a commission-heavy, performance-based role.
Compensation may include:
Small weekly performance stipend
Bonuses for qualified meetings that attend
Commission on clients directly sourced
Additional bonuses for pilots and closed business
Uncapped earning potential
Exceptional performers who consistently generate pipeline and help improve the company’s sales function may be considered for:
Expanded responsibilities
Increased commission
A formal sales leadership role
Performance-based equity
Equity is not guaranteed for joining. It must be earned through sustained performance and meaningful contribution.
Who We Want
You may be:
An experienced SDR or appointment setter
A commission-driven salesperson
A former recruiter, fundraiser or insurance salesperson
A student or recent graduate with strong phone presence
A startup operator interested in building a sales function
You should be:
Comfortable making cold calls
Persistent after rejection or no response
Professional, confident and articulate
Motivated by commission and performance
Able to follow an established process
Organized with follow-ups and notes
Comfortable working directly with a founder
Interested in finance, fintech, startups or entrepreneurship
Financial-services experience is helpful but not required.
What Success Looks Like
Success will be measured by:
Consistent outbound call activity
Real conversations with qualified prospects
Accurate follow-up and pipeline tracking
Qualified meetings booked
Opportunities and revenue created
This is not a passive internship or résumé-padding position. It is an opportunity to prove that you can generate pipeline and potentially grow into a larger commercial role.
How to Apply
Please submit:
Your resume or professional profile
A short explanation of your outbound or cold-calling experience
An example of a time you remained persistent after rejection or no response
A brief voice recording introducing yourself as though you were calling a financial-services executive
