Our Story

Our founders Kabir & Matthew set out with a hunch that graduates were looking for more than the same old corporate grad schemes. Well, more than a hunch. After both working in the corporate world for several years, they were tired of their jobs, overworked and frustrated by their low impact. 

Kabir and Matthew felt they’d sleepwalked straight into these corporate roles, without knowing about the more exciting, impactful careers out there. And they realised hundreds of other graduates are doing the same thing each year. 

Jumpstart was created in 2020 to give people like you the chance to carve out an alternative career path; one that’s exciting, impactful, and that you actually love. And startups, as diverse, innovative, and fast-paced work environments, are the perfect place for this. 

Our mission
