About Oneday

Oneday is an education technology platform designed to inspire and equip aspiring entrepreneurs from diverse backgrounds to turn their business dreams into reality. We are on a mission to redefine business education and are set to become the largest and the most practical business school in the world.

At the centre of the programme is the mentor relationship. Every student is paired one-to-one with a Founder who has already built what they’re trying to build. That pairing is the most important thing we do.

The Role

As an Entrepreneur in Residence, you will mentor a portfolio of ambitious early-stage founders one-to-one. Through structured 1n1 calls, you will help them validate ideas, build their first product, win their first customers, raise capital where appropriate, and scale a business that lasts.

This is not a side-of-desk advisory role. It is a serious commitment to supporting the next generation of founders — drawing on what you have already built, and giving it back at the moment it matters most in their journey.

What You’ll Do

  • Give direct, experience-led advice on launching and scaling a business in your sector — from idea validation to product, growth, hiring, fundraising, and operations.
  • Hold founders accountable to commitments and outcomes, with the candour they’ll struggle to find anywhere else.
  • Review and feed back on practical assignments tied to milestones in their company-building journey.
  • Bring your network when it matters — warm intros, hiring leads, customer conversations — at your discretion.

The Community You’ll Join

Our mentor community is composed exclusively of seven- and eight-figure Founders who have built meaningful businesses — operators, exiters, and category-builders.

You will join a peer group of accomplished entrepreneurs, with regular opportunities to collaborate, exchange playbooks, and access early dealflow from the founders we work with.

Who We’re Looking For

  • Founder of one or more seven- or eight-figure businesses — built, scaled, and ideally exited or still operating.
  • Deep tactical expertise in identifying and validating ideas, building product, and driving early growth.
  • A serious commitment to lean, outcome-focused company-building — not theory.
  • Outstanding judgement and people skills. The best mentors are direct, generous, and patient with the realities of early-stage building.
  • Prior mentoring, advisory, or angel-investing experience is a strong signal.

Time Commitment

Minimum 10 hours per week (can be evenings / weekends if you prefer). Up to 60 hours per week available for mentors who want to take on a larger portfolio of founders. Flexible around your existing commitments.

Why Join Oneday

  • Mentor founders at the moment your guidance has the most leverage — early enough to shape the business.
  • Be part of a serious, peer-level community of seven- and eight-figure operators.
  • Highly-rewarded work that flexes around your existing ventures.
  • Early dealflow access — invest in the founders you mentor, on your own terms.
