Vacant job

We are looking for someone who is curious about new technology, analytical, and enjoys quickly immersing themselves in new areas. You also have an interest in economics/business development and a well-developed ability to structure, analyze, and communicate complex issues.

You thrive in a dynamic environment where tasks vary and where you switch between everything from investments in early-stage startups to management and follow-up of companies in the scaling phase.

The role is characterized by great freedom under responsibility and requires high flexibility, as you will work in a small, dedicated team with close collaboration with our partners. For the right person, the position offers a unique opportunity to gain deep insight into the venture capital industry, from investment to exit, as well as to build strong networks and develop a solid understanding of venture capital operations and company building.

You will analyze research-intensive startups in deep tech with a focus on market, technology, team, and financing. The work includes, among other things:

• Market and industry analyses as well as customer and expert interviews
• Competitive analysis and analysis of comparable companies
• Cap table and financing analysis, including basic financial modeling
• Preparation of investment memos and participation in decision-making materials
• Collection and reporting of portfolio data

You will also contribute to the development of investment strategies and analytical models in line with our mission and collaborate with universities, research institutes, and industrial partners to identify the technology companies of the future.

The role also involves working on marketing and ecosystem building towards our target audience outside academia, as well as working at the interface between portfolio companies and the investment operations.

We offer

• Permanent employment after a six-month probationary period.
• The opportunity to work closely with some of Sweden's most groundbreaking deep tech companies and entrepreneurs, where close collaboration between academia and industry is a central part.
• A dynamic environment with short decision-making paths and a high degree of responsibility.
• Experienced mentoring from investors with over 25 years of experience in the industry and a track record of over 200 investments.
• Access to a comprehensive network within academia, industry, venture capital, and other parts of the innovation ecosystem.
• An inclusive work environment that values diversity and personal development.

Location

The workplace is Teknikringen 1, Stockholm (KTH Campus), and as needed, work at Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University. Hybrid work may occur as time and relevance allow.
