Platform Intern | Antler Sweden
TL;DR: Be the right hand to the person leading our platform in Sweden. You'll start close, learning how we operate, supporting day-to-day execution across events and community, and earning more ownership as you go. You'll work alongside our founders, our team, and a network of leading tech companies, helping shape and execute the events and community work that make Antler what it is. It's a high-trust, high-ownership role. Some days you're shaping a fireside with a top founder; other days you're solving whatever needs solving so the day runs well. If that mix sounds like your kind of role, read on.
Why Antler
Antler backs the world's most ambitious founders from day zero. We're in 30 cities across six continents and invested in more than 1,500 startups — including a deep portfolio across the Nordics, where we continue to back ambitious teams at scale.
Our Stockholm office sits in the heart of the city. It's where our founders build, where our community gathers, and where a steady stream of investors, operators, and ecosystem people pass through. Beyond the office, we run and co-host events across the Swedish ecosystem together with leading partners. You'd be in the middle of all of it.
What you'll do
- Work as the right hand to our platform lead, supporting operations across Sweden and taking on more ownership as you grow into the role
- Help plan and run events, at our office and out in the ecosystem, from intimate founder dinners to larger events we put on together with partners
- Make sure the founders building in our house have what they need, day to day
- Manage communication and logistics across our community
- Help build and strengthen the Nordic founder community
- Pitch in across the Nordics team on whatever needs doing to strengthen Antler's position as a leading early-stage VC in the region
What we're looking for
- Genuine interest in startups, not in the logo. You want to work with founders because you find that world interesting, and you can see yourself building a career in or around startups long after this internship ends
- No task is too big or too small. One moment you're prepping a founder session, the next you're solving something practical so an event lands well. You don't need a title to feel good about either. Roll-up-your-sleeves is a default, not a stretch
- You don't wait for tasks — you see what's needed. You understand what Antler, the ecosystem, and our founders need at any given moment, and you act on it. Direction is a starting point, not a requirement
- Highly organized operator. You run multiple things at once without dropping balls. Tight deadlines, shifting priorities, and ambiguity don't throw you off
- Strong communicator. Sharp written and verbal communication. Comfortable around founders, investors, and the people who pass through our doors
- Some foundation. Academic grounding in business or operations, and/or a track record of leading projects, organizing events, or building communities. Bonus if you've run something yourself
What we offer
- A front-row seat to the Nordic startup ecosystem and the people building it
- Real responsibility from week one, with more autonomy as you grow into the role
- A network you'll keep long after the internship ends
- Hands-on coaching from a team of ex-entrepreneurs and investors
- A path to a full-time role at Antler for the right person
