Job description

About Us

Vow is a food company - a very different one. We’re creating real meat products from animal cells instead of the animal itself.

We’re bringing together cutting edge innovations in science, engineering, culinary and design to make sustainable food that’s both irresistible and available to billions of people worldwide.

The Role

Join our first cohort of curious, motivated hyper-learners. This is a term we use to describe talented, open-minded individuals who are keen to kickstart their startup career by learning as much as possible across multiple areas of a fast-paced, rapidly growing company.

This internship will be a four month program focused on maximising your personal and professional learnings and will give you and your fellow hyper-learners the ability to have a huge impact at Vow in just a matter of weeks.

During your internship, you’ll rotate across the business, spending a few weeks deeply embedded within one team, learning how they operate, and helping them to solve business critical challenges. Imagine a series of “hackathons” in which you and your fellow hyper-learners have the chance to go deep, drive meaningful change, and then pause for reflection and learnings before spinning elsewhere across the business.

You may spend a few weeks working in our culinary centre, helping us to develop the business case for a future product then actually get hands on and evolve the physical prototype; or, you may step onto the factory floor (of the largest, operational cultured meat facility in the world!) and help our team with scaling manufacturing infrastructure, improving day to day operations, or any other of a number of challenges that pop up.

Your background and technical skills are secondary to having a positive attitude, curiosity, and passion to learn as much as possible at Vow, how we operate, and how we are working towards achieving our ambitious mission of creating better, more sustainable food for billions of people.

The experience/skills you will bring:

We’re looking to build a diverse internship cohort with a variety of skills, ranging from engineering, to biology, to food science, to business. We’re less concerned about your exact degree and studies; we’re more excited about how motivated you are to learn and grow.

We’re looking for some signals on technical aptitude, but we’ll be really focused on finding people who fit the following description:

  • You have a demonstrated love for learning across multiple disciplines.
  • You can indicate a track record of successful collaboration and teaming, whether in an academic or even team sport setting.
  • You have a positive “can do” attitude and are willing to work amazingly hard.
  • You’re eager to take feedback and grow as quickly as possible.
  • And last but certainly not least, you have a passion for what we do. You care deeply about food, sustainability, or just solving problems that matter at a global level.

We’re open to candidates with some or no professional work experience, but we do expect that you’re able to work full time (i.e., no current university students).

What success looks like:

After four months at Vow, you’ll have had a meaningful impact on our business and have learned more than you ever have, ranging from how different functions in a startup work to how to solve complex, cross-functional problems. You’ll have had access to some phenomenal mentors and managers who will challenge and push but support you to grow and think more intentionally about your own career and the impact you can have.

At the end of this, top performers will be invited to join our team of Vowzers full time.

Who we are and why join:

  • We are building a diverse, mission-led dream team of “Vowzers.” Our mission is to make food products for everyone. To do that well we need a workforce that’s representative of the people we serve. We celebrate multiple approaches and points of view - so we’re building a culture to match. Be yourself and come as you are.
  • Work on cutting-edge technology. We’re bringing together cutting-edge innovations in science, engineering, and food, to recreate the world’s most tantalising and unique culinary experiences. All without compromising on ethics or our planet along the way. Since our inception in 2019, we have held the title of being the first startup to cultivate meat from the cells of an undomesticated animal, and have served up our exotic meats ranging from kangaroo dumplings to alpaca sliders in tastings with world-renowned chefs.
  • Work with and learn from the best. Our team includes some of the world’s top scientists, innovators, operators, and creatives with decades of industry experience. Despite our experiences though, we all strive to build, break, learn, and repeat. We see the impossible as temporary and strive to learn and support our company and fellow Vowzers' growth as much as possible.
  • We’re fully funded and ready to go. We are a growing Aussie biotech start-up backed by Blackbird Ventures, Square Peg Capital, Grok Ventures, Tenacious Ventures, P7 Ventures, Toyota Ventures, and PeakBridge VC.

Vow perks and benefits:

  • Flexible working hours and location. We value work-life balance. While we’re mostly back in the office, you’re free to choose the best way for you to work.
  • Unlimited personal leave. At Vow we recognise that sometimes you need time off to recuperate, look after your mental health, or simply deal with an emergency. We put unlimited personal leave in place to empower you to truly bring your best self to work every single day and you are always paid for days taken off as personal leave.
  • Heaps of tasty samples from our culinary centre. Our fantastic u"food inventors" on the Vow team are always cooking up new product prototypes, and all Vowzers are given the opportunity to taste, give feedback, and learn from their culinary prowess.
  • An awesome converted warehouse “campus” in Alexandria. Complete with a glass-walled lab, manufacturing line, free snacks, a culinary centre, and professional-grade coffee machine in our cafe, as well as a DIY workshop for all hands-on projects.
  • Human and dog friendly office! An inclusive community and culture, in a welcoming office, complete with friendly “Vowzer” dogs!
  • A variety of social clubs. We encourage all our Vowzers to build the culture with us and share what you love by creating social clubs across the business. From book clubs to hiking groups, we’re always looking for ways to learn and engage with our team.
