Vice President — Investments
Consumer fund · Delhi
A SEBI-licensed consumer fund in Delhi is hiring its first Vice President — Investments. ₹400 Cr first fund, backed by an established wealth platform. First close within weeks, three transactions already in diligence. A six-person team, so this person owns deals end to end — origination, diligence, negotiation, and the founder relationship afterwards.
Cheque sizes of ₹5–20 Cr, sweet spot ₹10–15 Cr. Pre-Series A and Series A, 80% consumer. Six to nine years, with at least three inside a fund writing equity into private companies. Delhi, in office.
The role
Reporting to the Managing Partner. In office, Delhi.
Originate. Find companies, meet founders, build a pipeline that is not inherited
Form a view. Develop and defend a thesis on categories and companies
Execute. Modelling, diligence, negotiation, documentation, closing
Stay with it. Manage portfolio companies alongside the Managing Partner. Some you will run alone
Hold the line on compliance. A day or two a month once streamlined. You are the face that ensures it is in order
Build the team. The Associate and Analyst report into this seat
LP management sits with the Managing Partner and is not part of this role — though it may open up later for someone who shows the aptitude for it.
Who this suits
Six to nine years overall,
with at least three inside a fund investing equity into private companies
Has written cheques in the ₹5–30 Cr range, or can show why they would be at home there
Consumer background strongly preferred — in the portfolio, not necessarily in the fund’s name
Genuine depth on the numbers.
In Delhi, or genuinely willing to move there
An MBA or CA is welcome. Neither is required.
What is on offer
Handsome fixed + substantial carry. Path to Principal, then Partner in fund two.
A defined path: Principal, then Partner in the second fund around year four, with substantial carry
A licensed fund with live deals and an institutional sponsor behind it. Not a plan
Chance to work with seasoned professionals
Who this does not suit
Anyone who is looking for Hybrid/remote. The office will be in Delhi and this is not negotiable
Wealth management, private banking or AMC product roles
Credit, venture debt or lending
Public markets and equity research
Growth or buyout private equity writing ₹100 Cr+ cheques — the cheque size here is ₹5–20 Cr
If you are at a seed fund and want to move up-market to companies with product-market fit and real revenues, this is worth a conversation.
