Responsibilities

This Investment Fellowship is a unique opportunity to gain insider experience and skill-building with a leading specialist VC firm investing in next-generation tech companies in SE Asia and across the Global South. Many past fellows describe this as a highly condensed “MBA on venture capital”. Successful candidates are highly entrepreneurial and self-directed professionals who thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic, global startup environment.

You will work closely with the our SE Asia investment team as well as other investment, IR, value-add, operations team members focused on India, Africa and Latin America.

The Investment Fellowship is an opportunity to contribute to:

• Pipeline development support to find promising tech companies across entrepreneurial hotspots in the Global South
• Deal analysis, diligence and closure as we scale up our investment programs
• Investment operations, data collection, analysis, fundraising support and more
• Portfolio value-add and portfolio performance reviews support
• Other strategic global projects

Qualifications

• Experience working in a SE Asian country in venture capital, finance or an entrepreneurial environment
• Strong analytical and financial skills. You must be comfortable with organizing and synthesizing data.
• Experience in a start-up environment or equivalent. We’re not a large firm – just like us, we’re looking for someone who knows how to get a lot done with limited resources and is looking to be challenged and interested in growing.
• Outstanding communication skills, both written and verbal
• Highly motivated self-starter who creates opportunity and operates well with limited oversight
• Passion for learning and excitement for working with a variety of people and companies.
• Total fluency in English
