Job description
ROLE MISSION
Lead US deal sourcing and pipeline development for Fund II from day one. With a large share of the fund's deal flow coming from the US, you'll own sourcing, technical diligence, founder outreach and portfolio support in the market, helping the fund move fast and build real presence on the ground.
KEY OUTCOMES
Own US deal sourcing, building a steady flow of high quality opportunities across the fund's focus sectors while growing the fund's network, brand and visibility across the US tech ecosystem
Lead technical and commercial diligence, preparing IC memos and presenting deals with clear, well reasoned recommendations
Conduct deep sector analysis to spot emerging consumer and prosumer tech trends, and support deal execution: financial modelling, cap table analysis, valuation and term sheet negotiation
Support portfolio companies hands on, including board observer seats and attending board meetings
Support the CIO and US Partner with LP relations and fundraising as the fund scales its US footprint
Own CRM and pipeline hygiene, keeping process and documentation to a high standard
CORE COMPETENCIES
3+ years investment experience in venture or growth
A proven sourcing track record and an existing US technology network
Strong technical diligence skills and sound commercial judgement
Hungry, self directed and comfortable owning a market with little supervision
YOU’LL THRIVE HERE IF
You want ownership of a market from day one, not a seat on a big team
You're relentless about sourcing and energised by finding what others miss
You're excited to grow with the fund as its US presence scales
IDEAL BACKGROUND
Venture or growth investing experience with direct exposure to US deal sourcing
A track record leading technical and commercial diligence through to IC
Existing relationships across the US consumer/tech founder and investor ecosystem
