Join Our Pack ️
From a bold idea to revolutionising dog food, Years has grown into a fast-scaling business dedicated to helping dogs live longer, healthier lives.
In just 3 years, we’ve built a thriving start-up, serving thousands of happy customers and making fresh, nutritious food the new standard for dogs across the UK.
Our goal? To give dog owners a better, fresher, and healthier way to feed their pets - with personalised, real-food meals, delivered to their door. No preservatives. No filler. Just real nutrition that dogs (and their humans) love.
As we continue to scale, we’re looking for people who want to build something meaningful - and have a real impact.
Your Mission
This isn’t your average junior role - this is the role we wish we had when we left uni.
As a Founders Associate, you’ll work directly with the founders of the business on a wide variety of projects - from improving customer experience and building out operational processes, to exploring new growth ideas and analysing performance.
You’ll learn how every part of the business works - and you’ll get to shape it. No two days will be the same, and you’ll be trusted to take ownership from day one.
You don’t need loads of experience. What you do need is the drive to learn fast, solve problems, and help build something meaningful.
Key Responsibilities
Work on priority projects across the business
Solve problems with data and logic - then turn ideas into action
Take ownership, reporting, and tracking of key initiatives
Dive into commercial analysis, growth opportunities or market testing
Create clear, sharp outputs - whether it’s a board slide or a project plan
Bring pace, energy and focus to everything you touch
Spot opportunities to improve how we work and act on them
What You'll Bring
Curious, smart, and excited to learn
Analytical mindset - confident with numbers and problem solving
Great communicator - clear in writing and conversation
Self-starter - you don’t wait to be told, you figure things out
Collaborative and humble - but happy to own your work
Resilient and adaptable - you bounce back from setbacks
Attention to detail and pride in doing things properly
Why This Role?
Learn how a real business is built - from the inside
Work directly with the founders and leadership team
Get exposure to high-impact projects early in your career
Be part of a mission-driven team with big ambition
A fast-track role for future operators, founders, or generalists
And Just as Important – Your Mindset
You’re hungry to grow - and not afraid of hard work
You want responsibility - and you’re ready to earn it
You’re flexible, positive, and get stuck in
You want to be part of something that matters
