Role Description
The VC Senior Associate sits at the center of the investment engine. You will run deal processes end-to-end - from initial screen through diligence, memo, IC presentation, and SPV close - alongside the Director of Investments. You will start sourcing independently within your first six months and set the bar for the analyst pool that comes in behind you.
This is the role for someone who has done 3 to 5 years inside a fund, an investment bank, or a high-velocity strategic finance team, and is ready to step up. You will own deals, diligence, and the relationships that come from running a process well.
You report directly to the Director of Investments at Inflection Club and will have regular exposure to the Investment Committee.
