Job description
Role overview
This opportunity is with a leading early-stage venture capital firm seeking an Investment Analyst for a Sydney-based team. The firm supports exceptional founders from the earliest stages and operates with the backing of an international platform. This is a hands-on, front-office investment role on a small, high-performing team, combining ecosystem engagement with rigorous analysis to identify and support promising companies.
What you will do
- Build relationships throughout the startup community and regularly engage with founders, both in person and virtually.
- Carry out due diligence on potential investments, examining the market, product, team, and financials.
- Develop investment theses and contribute to decisions on capital deployment.
- Assist the portfolio and support the wider fund as the team expands.
Candidate profile
The background is intentionally broad and may include corporate finance, M&A, consulting, operating experience, technical experience, or another path entirely. More important than a specific pedigree is a strong appetite to learn, curiosity about businesses, and the motivation to spend time digging deeply into sectors and companies.
- Strong interest in learning quickly and going deep on topics that matter.
- Natural investment curiosity and a thoughtful view on what makes businesses compelling.
- Clear enthusiasm for venture capital.
- Comfort speaking with founders and taking initiative to reach out and move things forward.
- Ability to balance relationship-building with disciplined analysis.
- Solid work ethic and the ability to absorb new information quickly.
Why this role stands out
This is a rare chance to join a small team in a real investment seat with direct exposure to founders and deals. Strong analysts can progress quickly, and the role offers a clear pathway for growth within a respected platform. For someone who wants to build a career in venture capital, this is a strong entry point.
