Job description

About MaxAccelerate Tech Group

MaxAccelerate Tech Group is a global technology holding group focused on accelerating the growth of startups, early‑stage companies, and solo entrepreneurs. We help founders take ideas and software products to market, scale internationally, and build on world‑class technology infrastructure.

Our model combines hands‑on advisory, product development, technology stack implementation, and strategic investment. Companies that join the group gain access to a shared technology ecosystem, go‑to‑market resources, business development infrastructure, and a network of fellow portfolio companies — creating real leverage across every stage of growth.

We work with

• Startups and growth‑stage companies looking to expand globally
• Solo entrepreneurs with validated ideas or early‑stage software products
• Organisations that align with our portfolio and can add strategic value to the group

The Role

We are looking for a driven and commercially minded Investor Relations & Business Development Executive to join our growing team. This is a unique role that sits at the intersection of capital raising, investor engagement, and pipeline development — with the goal of building and managing a high‑quality network of investors and identifying new companies that could join the MaxAccelerate group.

You will be the primary point of contact for our investor community — cultivating relationships with family offices, venture capital firms, angel investors, and high‑net‑worth individuals — while also running outreach to identify exciting new companies that could benefit from, or contribute to, the group.

Key Responsibilities

Investor Network Development

• Build and manage a structured pipeline of investors including family offices, VCs, angel investors, and HNWIs
• Conduct proactive outreach to introduce MaxAccelerate and its portfolio companies to relevant investors
• Develop and maintain strong long‑term relationships across the investor community
• Track investor preferences, mandates, and activity to ensure relevant, well‑timed engagement

Capital Raising Support

• Support the preparation of investor materials, pitch decks, and deal summaries for portfolio companies seeking funding
• Coordinate investor meetings, calls, and follow‑ups on behalf of the group and its companies
• Assist in managing the fundraising process end‑to‑end for specific transactions
• Maintain a CRM of investor contacts, deal flow, and interaction history

Company Origination & BD

• Identify and qualify new companies and founders that could benefit from joining the MaxAccelerate group
• Run outbound outreach to target companies across sectors and geographies aligned with the group's thesis
• Attend events, conferences, and networking opportunities to build pipeline and represent the group
• Evaluate inbound enquiries and make initial assessments for group leadership review

Ecosystem & Portfolio Support

• Act as a connector between portfolio companies and the broader investor and partner network
• Collaborate with internal teams to align BD efforts with the group's shared technology and marketing ecosystem
• Support internal communications and reporting on investor relations activity

What We’re Looking For

Experience & Background

• 1‑4 years of experience in investor relations, business development, capital markets, or a related field
• Some exposure to startup ecosystems, venture capital, private equity, or family office environments
• Demonstrated ability to build and manage professional networks
• Experience with CRM tools and maintaining structured pipelines

Skills & Attributes

• Strong written and verbal communication skills — confident engaging with investors and senior stakeholders
• Self‑starter mindset with the ability to manage multiple relationships and priorities independently
• Commercial acumen and genuine interest in startups, technology, and investment
• High attention to detail, particularly in preparing materials and investor‑facing communications
• Comfortable working across time zones and in a lean, fast‑moving environment

Nice to Have

• Existing network within the GCC, UAE, or global investor community
• Familiarity with fundraising processes, term sheets, or investment documentation
• Experience in a holding company, multi‑portfolio, or accelerator environment

What We Offer

• A front‑row seat to a dynamic, multi‑company technology group with global ambitions
• Direct exposure to deal flow, investment conversations, and portfolio company growth
• Access to a shared technology ecosystem, tools, and group resources
• A collaborative, entrepreneurial team culture with real ownership of your remit
