Business Development Assistant (Seabex)

Seabex

We optimize agricultural water use through AI-powered irrigation recommendations and verified environmental impact measurement.

Business Development Assistant

Most volunteer roles in sustainability ask you to research, assist, or support. This one asks you to build.

Seabex is an AI-powered agricultural water intelligence platform operating across France, Tunisia, and Spain. Our platform helps farmers optimize irrigation without any hardware installation, using satellite imagery and agronomic AI models. We work with 500+ recurring farmers across 60,000+ hectares, with independently validated water savings of 16 to 40%. We are also building Water Savings Certificates (WSC) — a first-of-its-kind MRV infrastructure that will allow corporations to account for water savings in their supply chain under CSRD/ESRS E3 reporting obligations.

As our Business Development Volunteer, you will identify and qualify corporate leads, map partnership opportunities with agricultural institutions across France and Spain, conduct competitive research, and directly contribute to a commercial pipeline that matters.

You will work closely with the CEO and founding team — not a middle manager, not an intern coordinator. Your work will feed directly into deals with agri-food corporations, irrigation cooperatives, and institutional buyers.

What we are looking for

• A proactive self-starter with an interest in climate, agriculture, or water.
• Background in business, agronomy, sustainability, or engineering.
• French or English fluency (both is a plus).
• Ability to commit 5 to 10 hours per week for a minimum of 3 months.

What you get

• Direct access to the founding team and their investor and partner network.
• Real exposure to a B2B SaaS commercial motion in climate-tech.
• A letter of recommendation and LinkedIn endorsement from the CEO upon successful mission.

Minimum Hours per Week:

7-9 hours per week

Duration:

3-5 months
