Description of the mission

Pollinate Impact Residency is a 4–6 month, project-based experience for early to mid-career professionals and recent graduates. It’s a part-time, remote role, working alongside a globally distributed team.

You’ll thrive in the Residency if you believe in the power of impact entrepreneurship to solve complex global challenges—and you’re excited to use your skills to strengthen the entrepreneurship ecosystem by supporting accelerators and incubators across the Global South.

This experience provides a rare opportunity to contribute directly to Pollinate Impact’s mission of addressing systemic gaps in incubation and acceleration in emerging markets.

We’re currently recruiting for our March–June cohort, with multiple Residency roles available.

Depending on your interests, skillset, and where support is most needed, you may contribute across areas including:

Community building & convenings
Research & analysis
Programs support
Systems & operations
AI-driven solutions
