Descripción del empleo

Hi there!

I'm Rodrigo, founder of helloworld.vc, an early-stage Venture Capital fund on a mission to back Europe’s most talented technical founders at the very beginning of their journey. Since launching the fund, I’ve invested in over 30 B2B software companies that have collectively raised close to €1B — all with a lean, hands-on approach.

I’m now looking for a Finance & Legal Manager to take ownership of the fund’s operational backbone. If you enjoy organizing chaos, keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes, and working independently with a high level of trust and ownership — this role could be a great fit.

As you'll see, the list of requirements is long. However, if you don't check all the boxes, don’t be discouraged from applying! This is a long-term role, and there’s plenty of room to learn and grow — what matters most is your attitude and ability to learn .

If you’ve worked in legal, audit, or consulting — maybe at a Big 4, a fund admin firm, or a boutique shop — and you’re now craving more flexibility, ownership, and context behind your work, this could be the right next step.

The day-to-day

You’ll lead the fund’s core operational pillars — Finance, Legal, Investor Relations, and Compliance — ensuring we move fast and operate with precision.

This is a hands-on role that blends high-trust execution with strong attention to detail. You’ll be both setting up the system and running it — from monthly reconciliations to legal documentation flows — enabling us to support founders effectively and maintain investor trust.

Finance, Accounting, and Reporting

• Recording and categorising transactions across the fund and its related entities in our internal systems
• Reviewing and validating reports from the fund administrator
• Managing cash flow tracking and coordinating capital calls and distributions
• Handling day-to-day financial admin (invoices, expenses, follow-ups, etc.) and reconciling bank accounts
• Responding to ad hoc data requests from investors, auditors, or the fund administrator
• Collecting portfolio KPIs and compiling internal dashboards or LP updates

Legal, Compliance, and Documentation

Reviewing legal documents for completeness and accuracy

Coordinating signature flows, tracking filings, and liaising with third parties to ensure timely execution

Maintaining and updating digital archives — e.g. legal contracts, accounts, cap tables, etc.

Collecting and organising KYC, AML, and tax documentation from investors and portfolio companies

Requirements

This role is for someone who is structured, autonomous, and enjoys building systems that work.

5+ years of relevant experience in a high-performance organisation in legal, finance, consulting, or fund admin roles

Sweating the small stuff — spotting inconsistencies before they become problems

Highly reliable, discreet, and comfortable working independently

Strong emotional intelligence — positive, warm, authentic, and trustworthy. You care about the people behind the numbers

A great communicator — clear, direct, and human across all forms of communication

Native or bilingual English and Spanish are a must; other languages are a plus
