About Foundervine

Foundervine is an entrepreneurship organisation helping founders build and grow successful businesses. Since 2018, we have supported more than 1,600 founders and entrepreneurs through our programmes, partnerships and wider ecosystem.

We work with some of the UK's and world's leading organisations to design and deliver programmes that support entrepreneurship, innovation and business growth. Our clients and partners have included Barclays, Lloyds Banking Group, NatWest, Google, Sainsbury's, Campari and local government, alongside investors, universities and organisations across the startup ecosystem.

Our work has been recognised externally, including being named by the Financial Times and Statista as one of Europe's Leading Startup Hubs in both 2025 and 2026.

Foundervine is now growing beyond our core programme business. Foundervine Spaces, our coworking and community hub in Canada Water, gives us a physical home for founders and creates new opportunities across memberships, events, partnerships and programming.

We are entering our next stage of commercial growth. We want to deepen relationships with existing clients, win new partners, grow recurring revenue and develop new commercial opportunities across Foundervine and Foundervine Spaces.

The Business Development Associate will play an important role in supporting this growth. Working closely with the Business Development Manager and Head of Business
