About The Position

This role supports the fund across two fronts: capital formation (preparing materials, tracking LP conversations, and writing communications) and investment work (research, market mapping, diligence support, and analysis). The position requires strong writing skills for LP updates, memos, newsletters, and fund materials, aiming for a client-service standard of communication. The team is described as fast-moving, dynamic, collaborative, inclusive, diverse, young, and energetic, valuing respect, teamwork, and open communication. The ideal candidate thrives in a startup environment and understands American business culture.

Requirements

• 2-3 years of relevant experience in venture capital, investment banking, startup ops/strategy, consulting or founder (office) roles.
• Direct exposure to fundraising, investor relations, or LP communications.
• Exceptional written English. This is a primary filter. You write clearly, warmly, and precisely, and you adapt register depending on whether the reader is an LP, a founder, or an internal stakeholder.
• Strong verbal communication. You are credible on calls with senior investors and operators.
• Solid analytical foundation: financial modeling, market sizing, competitive analysis, and comfort with accounting fundamentals.
• Working familiarity with term sheets, cap tables, and diligence processes.
• Proficiency in Excel, PowerPoint, and Google Workspace.
• AI fluency with Claude and ChatGPT for research, drafting, and analysis. No coding required.
• Comfortable working with US-based teams and American business culture.
• Organized, autonomous, and able to hold multiple workstreams without dropping threads.

• Develop market maps, thematic research, and investment theses across target sectors.

• Track deal flow, co-investor activity, and market momentum.
• Maintain research libraries and diligence documentation.
