We've funded 150+ founders and deployed tens of millions in venture capital, but still have so much work left to do to support the ecosystem. A lot of what we do requires the raising of capital (yes VC's need to raise money too!), so it's time to look for additional help to make sure our LPs hear our story and are taken care of. We're looking for an Fundraising & Investor Relations Lead to shepherd potential LPs through our fundraise process, communicate with them on our vision, strategy, and results, and secure capital for our next few funds. This will be primarily a fundraise and sales role. This will be the first ever hire for our Investor Relations & Fundraising team as we embark on an exciting journey of raising our third fund. You won't be alone, and will work directly with Brian and Hsu Ken who have both raised a significant amount of capital (hundreds of millions). This is perfect for someone who's done the fundraise job before in a VC, was a start-up Founder, or was exposed to LP fundraising previously and ready to take on even more responsibilities potentially to start your own fund in the future. If you love pitching, telling founder stories, and meeting interesting people everyday, you'll love this job. What You'll Do Fundraising - We'll talk with hundreds of potential LPs a year. Help us stay organized and talk to even more. If you have run a fundraise process previously in a VC or as a Start-up Founder, this will be right up your alley. Bonus points if you have fundraised at least USD10 million before from institutional Investors. Sourcing - Utilize our networks to source and outreach to new prospective LPs that want to make an impact, make a great return, and support an exploding ecosystem of bright founders. Engage with new pockets of capital by making sure we're in front of and being thought leaders at all the places that matter. Run the process - We're strong advocates of thoughtful execution. Own the pipeline and keep us on track with meetings, calls, commits, etc. If we're missing materials or should tell the story another way, help prepare us for success with data, materials, benchmarks, etc. Help us focus our time on the conversations that matter. Keep our LPs up to date - Maintain and improve our current LP relationships. If every existing LP doesn't want to put capital to work on our next fund, we've done something wrong. Own the investor newsletter, AGM, monthly calls, quarterly reporting, company intro process, etc. Own benchmarking - Know the markets. Are we raising too much, too little, should we be working towards earlier stages, later stages What countries are the most underserved because other funds just haven't focused there Should we or should we not Make us better - We're re-inventing what a VC firm can do with a massive network of value add founders and LPs. Help us iterate (pun intended) with whatever project you think will help our LPs stay close and add value to the network. What success will look like in your first 30, 60, and 90 days: 30 days - you will take over the LP newsletters, start organising our database and begin researching on the top 100 targets we should go after. 60 days - Get started with reaching out to potential leads and in parallel, create the first version of the teaser/pitch deck. 90 days - Actually close some checks. Let's start with US$1 million. What You'll Bring Passion for pitching, storytelling, and selling incredible opportunities to make an impact, while making great returns. Strong sense of ownership and bias towards execution. Deep curiosity and excitement for continuous learning. Systems builder. Strong leaning to make sure things are repeatable and processes are high quality. Very strong written and oral communication skills. Ability to develop investor confidence and belief in the firm's vision and strategy Thrives in a fast-paced, often scrappy, sometimes chaotic environment Meticulously detail-oriented and organized Previous experience fundraising in any context. Startup, VC, Corporate, etc. Having worked at a startup previously is a major plus. About Iterative Iterative is an accelerator that invests exclusively in startups in Southeast Asia.
