Join as a Founder in Residence in Climate We're on the lookout for entrepreneurial individuals with technical and commercial domain expertise with keen interest in founding, and building a global scale, impact driven, high growth company from ground up. We are seeking applications from experienced industry, startup and/or new science or engineering based technology development professionals from anywhere in the world to work with us on the next generation of plastics recycling. You'll work closely with the DSV team and the current Founder in Residence for this area to co found and spin out a new company. Once the new venture is incorporated with pre seed investment from DSV, you and your co founder(s) will own the majority stake in the business and continue receiving support from the DSV team post spinout. The role is full time, remote initially until venture incorporation and spin out (circa Q1 2026). The Opportunity We are building a venture to transform waste polyolefins into high value, recyclable degradable packaging materials. Our novel process produces polymers with properties comparable to polypropylene but with dramatically improved end of life characteristics, including solvolysis recyclability and environmental degradability. We are seeking a commercially focused co founder to partner with our technical founder and lead all commercial activities from company formation through Series A and beyond. This is a ground floor opportunity to shape a business addressing the urgent challenge of plastic circularity. Our Approach We are developing an electrified, contaminant tolerant process capable of transforming polyolefin waste into chemicals that will form the basis of a new materials platform. Initially, we will be focusing on developing new packaging materials to tackle the global plastic waste problem. Over time, we anticipate the technology will have applications in various other sectors. It is our hope that this technology will act as a global polyolefin sink - enabling global recovery and reuse of polyolefins. The developed materials will be simpler to recycle than current technologies, and will have environmental compatbility designed in from day one. In order for us to make our vision real we are seeking to recruit a commercially focused cofounder to support our near term commercial objectives. The Role As Commercial Co-Founder, you will own the commercial strategy and execution for the venture. Working alongside the technical founder, you will be responsible for validating market demand, building customer and supplier relationships, navigating regulatory pathways, and securing the commercial proof points required to raise successive funding rounds.

Here's what we offer: Access to optimised, purpose built, proprietary tools, resources, and processes to help create high impact ventures from scratch; Opportunity area specific know how from our network of Partners and Advisors; Up to £250k in investment to incorporate the new venture and develop early proof of concept data; Guaranteed income of £4,166 per month paid as a fixed consultancy fee until the company is launched and the pre seed investment is secured; Majority equity stake in the new company betweenyou and your co founder(s); Continuous post spinout support, including fundraising, commercial partnerships, recruitment, and team building; Collaborative support from dozens of Founders currently at DSV across sectors.
