Job description

About The Company

Founders today are building global companies from day one — but the systems that manage their money were built for a different era. Aspire exists to change that! We’re building the financial operating system for global founders, bringing banking, software, and automation into a single platform so businesses can move faster across borders and stay focused on building. Aspire is built by people who think from first principles, care deeply about solving hard problems, and take real ownership of their work. Our team brings global experience from leading fintech and technology companies, and many of us are former founders and operators who understand what it takes to build thoughtfully, make trade-offs, and deliver at scale in a global environment. Backed by leading global investors including Y Combinator, Peak XV, and Lightspeed, Aspire has been trusted by more than 50,000 startups and growing businesses worldwide to manage their finances since 2018. Together with partners like J.P. Morgan, Visa, and Wise, we’re building for the next generation of global companies.

About The Team

Our Growth tribe is focused on acquiring and activating customers at scale. You'll work on the experiments, channels, and funnels that bring new founders and businesses onto Aspire.

About The Role

At Aspire, we don't wait for big budgets or quarterly approvals — we test quickly, learn faster, and ship every day. Over a six-month internship, you'll lead live campaigns across Asian markets, with a focus on Chinese-speaking regions, owning the full journey from idea to high-performing growth channel. This is a hands‑on role: you'll operate from day one, tackle real growth challenges, test emerging strategies, and see the direct impact of your work on the business.

What You'll Own

• Running end-to-end growth experiments — defining hypotheses, setting up tests, executing, and analysing results
• Building high-value partnerships with creators, ecosystem partners, and founder communities
• Creating localised content in Cantonese, Mandarin, and English that feels native to each market
• Using AI-powered workflows to scale content production, outreach, and research
• Translating data into insights, iterating quickly, and building scalable growth playbooks

What You Need To Be Successful

• Native or fluent Cantonese and Mandarin, with strong written English
• Strong copywriting instincts and the confidence to publish work for real audiences
• A bias for action and a preference for shipping quickly rather than overanalysing
• A data-driven mindset and genuine curiosity about consumer behaviour and growth levers
• High accountability and comfort with ambiguity in a fast-moving fintech environment
• Prior experience in creator marketing, partnerships, or community-led growth is a plus
• Hands‑on experience with modern AI tools for content creation and workflow automation is a plus
• Demonstrated interest in fintech, startups, or B2B financial services is a plus
• Has a strong grasp of artificial intelligence concepts and the ability to apply AI tools (e.g. Claude, n8n, etc.) and frameworks to solve real-world problems at Aspire
