Job description

You’ll own the whole founder journey: finding the right founders, getting their attention, explaining how structuring a round with Roundtable works, coaching them through every question, and getting the deal over the line in close collaboration with our Operations and Legal Teams. While closing is part of the job, but you’ll also build much of your own pipeline, and you’ll be one of the people who directly influences how fast Roundtable grows in Germany.

As the main point of contact for your clients, you’ll help founders and investors navigate legal, process and product questions to ensure a smooth investment experience. Once ramped up, you’ll also guide angels and first-time deal leads through their first SPVs.

This highly entrepreneurial role combines prospecting, education, deal management and relationship building, with real ownership of your pipeline and network.

• Find the right founders: Map the ecosystem, spot founders who are about to raise, and start the conversation through outreach, introductions, events and your own network. You build a large part of your own pipeline.

• Educate and qualify: Explain how SPVs and syndicated rounds work and why they matter for a founder’s cap table. Qualify opportunities early and point founders to the right setup.

• Guide founders from first call to closing: Support founders throughout the investment process, from structuring and investor onboarding to documentation and signing. Act as their main point of contact, anticipate blockers and collaborate closely with Legal and Operations to ensure a smooth closing.

• Coach new deal leads: Once ramped up, guide angels and first-time syndicate leads through their first SPVs and turn them into repeat users of the platform.

• Be Roundtable’s face in the ecosystem: Be visible at ecosystem events, founder and investor meetups, panels and communities. Spread the word about Roundtable and build brand awareness across the German startup scene.

• Build trusted relationships: Grow a strong network of founders, business angels and, over time, VC funds and ecosystem partners. Turn that trust into referrals and recurring business.

Startup & VC ecosystem knowledge: You have a solid understanding of the German startup and investment ecosystem, including fundraising dynamics, key players and how founders operate. An existing network of founders, angels or investors is a strong plus.
