About Capital Connect Advisors
Capital Connect Advisors (CCA) is an Asia-focused boutique investment bank working with category-leading companies, institutional investors and family offices. With teams in Singapore, New Delhi and Mumbai, we advise on private capital raises, M&A;, secondaries and strategic transactions across India and Southeast Asia, connecting clients with investors and strategic partners globally.
Our focus is on technology and new business models across financial services, healthcare, media, consumer, commerce, manufacturing and mobility. We combine sector understanding and trusted relationships with disciplined transaction execution.
The role
We are hiring one hands-on Lead to build CCA's relationships and voice across the founder, investor and wider business ecosystem. You will own CCA's media and communications strategy end to end, while creating useful connections and thoughtful gatherings across India and Southeast Asia. Working closely with the Partners and deal teams, you will turn the firm's knowledge and relationships into a distinctive, credible presence. The role reports to the Partners.
What you will do
- Build, maintain and execute CCA's media strategy: define priority audiences, positioning, editorial themes, recurring formats and channel choices. Establish a recognisable point of view, review what is resonating and refine the strategy as the business and audience evolve.
- Own the editorial calendar and delivery. Draw out insights from Partners and deal teams; research, write, edit and distribute original market perspectives, founder and investor conversations, newsletters and approved transaction announcements.
- Develop owned and earned media together. Manage CCA's LinkedIn, website and other relevant channels; build relationships with journalists, editors, podcast hosts and event platforms, and secure relevant interviews, coverage and speaking opportunities.
- Build and maintain relationships with founders, investors, operators, accelerators and ecosystem partners.
Facilitate useful introductions and sustain engagement between transactions and events.
- Design and execute curated roundtables, founder sessions and investor gatherings. Own purpose, guest selection, programming, logistics and follow-up, with explicit value for participants.
- Maintain consistent messaging and editorial standards across firm materials. Manage freelancers, agencies, budgets and approvals where needed; obtain consent before publishing client information or deal-related content, and ensure all communications comply with confidentiality obligations and applicable regulatory restrictions.
- Track qualified audience engagement, relevant media coverage, repeat participation and relationships or opportunities influenced. Connect activity to commercial relevance and use results to improve the programme.
- Support internal knowledge sharing and cross-office connection.
What you will bring
Typically 3–5 years across communications, media, community, brand or ecosystem roles. Relevant experience in venture capital, startups, financial services, business media or a specialist agency is useful. The quality of your portfolio, judgement and ownership matters more than a particular title.
- Essential: evidence that you have built and executed a differentiated media or communications strategy. Show the audience, choices, content and distribution you owned, what made the approach distinctive and what changed as a result.
- Excellent writing and editing, strong editorial judgement and the ability to turn complex business ideas into clear, useful content. You can develop a point of view while checking facts and protecting confidentiality.
- Ability to build trusted relationships with senior founders, investors, media and ecosystem partners, and convert conversations into thoughtful follow-through.
- Hands-on execution across content, media outreach and events. You can prioritise a manageable programme, deliver consistently and measure what matters.
- Understanding of the Indian startup and investment ecosystem and its business media landscape, curiosity about Southeast Asia, and confidence working with an investment banking team.
Experience managing external contributors, running senior-level gatherings or developing founder and investor networks is a plus. This is an individual ownership role with scope to shape how the function develops.
How we work
We care about the businesses and people behind every transaction. We value curiosity, initiative and thoughtful challenge, backed by accurate work and reliable follow-through. Take ownership, ask for help early, protect confidential information and treat clients and colleagues with respect. We work closely across offices and expect everyone to contribute to the team's learning.
What we offer
A greenfield mandate to build the function, direct access to the Partners and a close view of live transactions across India and Southeast Asia. Competitive compensation with a performance-linked component.
