Being a Leverage Apprentice is all about the experience.

Oh, and one more thing. Intern is a dirty word. As an apprentice, your job is to absorb as much knowledge as possible, demonstrate that you can apply this knowledge and perhaps, if you're a good fit for the company, we might just invite you to join the team for the long haul.

Plus points!

• Previous start-up experience
• Previous business development, sales and marketing experience
