Job description
Company DescriptionSparkLab is a next-generation entrepreneurship lab built for high school students with ambition.
We partner with forward-thinking schools to deliver an immersive, real-world business program where students learn how to think like founders, investors, and operators.
Over an intensive multi-week experience, students develop ideas across curated industries, validate concepts, build financial models, craft marketing strategies, and pitch to real judges from the business community.
SparkLab bridges the gap between classroom theory and real-world execution. Our curriculum is designed by operators, investors, and entrepreneurs who have built and scaled companies — not career academics. We emphasize critical thinking, ownership, discipline, creativity, and confidence.Students don't just learn about business — they build it.
Backed by experienced founders and investors, SparkLab is building a scalable platform that equips the next generation with practical skills in strategy, finance, marketing, and leadership.
We are assembling a network of mentors, operators, educators, and strategic partners who believe young talent should be challenged early — and trained properly.
If you believe students deserve real exposure to how business actually works, SparkLab is building that future.Role Description
