Functionality Group of companies are a group of 6 companies in early-stage start-up within the health, lifestyle, and wellbeing sectors (Scentered, Global Amenities, Yogi-bare, Kitbrix, Gate8, and newco to aid those going through Cancer treatment).  These groups of companies often work closely together and many of the employees work across the group, and not just for one particular company.  We are seeking an intern to work alongside the owner/entrepreneur who has an opening for someone who is willing to learn, bring skills to the table and be on a fast track journey of learning and working.  Our team all work from home but this role will initially be based in Ansty Wiltshire, where the owner lives, to undergo some of the initial training but ultimately will work from home too. 

For those who are not familiar with the Entrepreneur role and personality, be warned they are a unique breed!  They work at a 1000 miles an hour, expect a lot but give so much back in return.  They will help you achieve and grow and not hold you back. So be prepared to be in the fast lane of learning, using the skills you have gained so far at school/college/uni, gaining hands-on experience in the workplace, being allowed to use your brain and your voice – your opinion matters!  You will learn new life skills that will set you up for the working world for life. You will also be expected to move boxes, in due course attend events at weekend and all our staff understand at the heart of everything you have to learn to sell. 

What do we need from you?

To come prepared and ready for some hard work and a busy full day.  If you want a slow and quiet pace, this role is not for you.  You will need to be excel literate, a good communicator, and above all willing to learn and to go that extra mile.  You need to be agile and able to apply common sense. Design and ppt presentation skills are a bonus. 

The Role:

Working alongside the Owner and other members of the team  You will be given the opportunity to work, learn and contribute to all aspects of the business such as Customer Service, Sales, Marketing, Operations, etc.  Once you have experienced all aspects, you will naturally fall into the area that you enjoy or feel you are able to contribute the most.  

What we offer

A fun team to work with, a unique place to work (a magical barn based in the grounds of the owners manor), a tremendous opportunity to learn and grow, life skills, the list is endless!  The hours for the role start from 25 hours a week 5 days a week but can be flexi and consideration for full time for an exceptional candidate, may be considered.  You will receive holiday pay and minimum wage whilst completing the internship.
