Generalist Roles
A generalist role tackles a wide range of tasks across operations, marketing, sales, hiring, fundraising, and more.
Generalists provide leverage to the founder by taking on projects that don’t fit neatly into a single department.
Often solving problems both in the short term and long term, and freeing the founder to focus on high-impact work.

Jumpstart’s platform features a broad range of vetted, high-growth startups, primarily in the UK tech ecosystem, rather than being limited to one niche.
The companies tend to be early-stage, venture-backed startups (seed to Series A) across sectors such as consumer tech, FinTech, climate tech, health tech, AI-driven companies, blockchain/crypto, and tech-for-good, with some marketplaces and digitally enabled consumer brands as well.
While not every startup is “deep tech,” they are generally technology-led, scalable businesses that are actively hiring and have passed Jumpstart’s screening, making the platform suitable for people looking to engage with credible, fast-growing UK tech startups across multiple verticals.
Candidates tend to land a role in 4-6 weeks.
