About the role:
Our client is a global early stage venture capital firm backing founders from first check through Series A. They run multiple funds, an acceleration arm, and a network of regional hubs, and they are now building out their Europe hub.
They are looking for a Dealflow Partner to be their eyes and ears in the startup ecosystem. Your job is to find exceptional early stage founders before anyone else does, build real relationships with them, and bring the best of them to the investment team.
Focus would be mainly Europe but not restricted to Europe. If you find a company worth backing in any market, they want to see it.
This is a sourcing role, not a back office one. You will spend your time in the ecosystem: at demo days, in founder communities, on calls with accelerators and angels, and in conversations with people building things that do not have a website yet.
What you will do:
- Source early stage startups from pre-seed to Series A, primarily across Europe and opportunistically in other markets where your network reaches.
- Build and maintain relationships with accelerators, incubators, universities, angel networks and other VCs to establish a repeatable inbound pipeline.
- Run first conversations with founders, understand the business, and assess fit against the investment thesis.
- Prepare concise deal summaries and pass qualified opportunities to the investment team with a transparent point of view.
- Represent the firm at ecosystem events, online and in person..
- Track and report pipeline activity weekly, keeping the CRM clean and current.
- Feed market intelligence back to the team: what is getting funded, who is raising, where the interesting clusters are forming.
What we are looking for:
- 2 to 3 years of relevant experience in venture capital, an accelerator, an incubator, an angel syndicate, a startup platform or a founder-facing ecosystem role.
- An active, genuine startup network you can put to work from day one, with real depth in Europe. Reach into other regions is a bonus.
- Strong commercial judgement: you can tell the difference between a good pitch and a good business.
- Excellent written and verbal communication in English. Additional European languages are a strong plus.
- Self-directed and comfortable operating remotely with minimal supervision. This role rewards output, not hours logged.
- Based in Europe, or working within European time zones.
Nice to have:
- Prior experience sourcing or evaluating deals at pre-seed or seed stage.
- Sector depth in AI, fintech, deeptech, climate, healthtech or B2B SaaS.
- Experience with sourcing and CRM tools such as Affinity, Apollo, Crunchbase or Dealroom.
- Existing relationships with Station F, France Digitale, Bpifrance, La French Tech, or equivalent ecosystem bodies in your market.
What is on offer:
- Fixed monthly compensation on a rolling contract
- Fully remote with flexible working hours
- Direct exposure to a global investment team and portfolio across the US, MENA and Europe
- Full ownership of your market and the ability to build your own sourcing playbook
- A seat at the table as the Europe hub is built from the ground up
