Marketplaces & Consumer team in

You will be supporting founders from the beginning to the culmination of their startup journey. You will need to maintain and expand your network in the consumer ecosystem in order to source deals. You will also need to develop a point of view around consumer investing to evaluate and diligence these opportunities. In addition, you will need to work with existing portfolio companies, providing operational support, input on product/growth/metrics and supporting them in any way you can. Finally, you will be front and centre, helping Speedinvest build its brand as the leading consumer seed fund in Europe.
This role is right for you if…- … you’re an early adopter — you love testing new consumer products and hanging out on Discord/Reddit
- …you’re intellectually curious — you love learning and going deep into new concepts and ideas
- …you’re data driven and have the aptitude to work out which metrics are relevant to each product
- …you’re a first principles thinker and not afraid of being contrarian
- …you have a bias to action, with a high clock speed
- …you want to roll up your sleeves and be a real sparring partner for portfolio founders on product, growth and metrics
This role is NOT right for you if…- …your idea of a good investment is based on whatever theme is in vogue at the moment
- …you’re more interested in your career trajectory than your portfolio companies’ trajectory
- …your idea of value add is making the occasional intro and sharing competitor websites with founders
What We Offer?

- Working in an inspiring environment directly with senior partners and receive ongoing training to develop your technical, leadership and interpersonal skills
- Working directly and hands-on with founders and their startups
