OUR MISSION

Nox's mission is to make overnight trains the best way to travel Europe. As short-haul flights face mounting environmental and customer pressure, we're building the premium night train experience that finally beats them on time, comfort and convenience. Now we're hiring the people who'll define what European travel feels like for the next decade. We recently closed our 2m Pre-Seed Round, so the timing could not be better.

Tasks

As our Founder Associate Intern, you'll split your time 50/50 between supporting our CMO with the biggest moment in Nox's young history and partnering with our Chief of Staff to build the GTM and CRM engine that turns it into long-term pipeline.

AREAS OF OWNERSHIP

With our CMO:

• Brand moment coordination: Drive the prep of a major physical brand activation from concept to on-site readiness, with internal teams and external partners.
• Event logistics end-to-end: Venue and supplier coordination, on-site setup, timeline tracking.
• Invitation funnel and on-site meetings: Segment, invite, track RSVPs and choreograph the moments between attendees and our leadership team.
• Pre-event media and social presence: Push reach and inbound interest before the big day.

With our Chief of Staff:

• HubSpot CRM build: Data model, lifecycle stages, pipelines, automations and reporting from the ground up.
• B2B pipeline onboarding and outreach: Enrich prospects across mobility, hospitality and distribution segments, then operationalise outreach sequences and follow-up cadence.
• Cross-departmental projects: Budget input, investor reporting prep, partner research, ICP refinement.
• Conversations into insights: Distill partner and customer feedback into structured input for product, marketing and sales.

• Own it. Take responsibility from day one and shape Nox with your personal touch
• Challenge. Question legacy thinking and push ideas that really excite our customers

Benefits

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU

Why does Nox need to exist, and why are you the right person to help build it? (max. 3 to 4 sentences)

Don't let imposter syndrome hold you back. We value passion and potential more than a perfect match with every requirement, so even if you don't tick every box, we still encourage you to apply. We bet on strong teams through diversity and fresh thinking, and especially encourage applicants who are usually underrepresented in traditional industries and business contexts to apply.

Nox is aiming to become the best alternative to short-haul flights by soon offering premium overnight trains across Europe. With a radically redesigned interior and onboard experience, people travel in style, saving time being asleep. We now search for the most passionate and talented people out there to bring the first of many more Nox trains on the tracks.
