About Fundflow

Fundflow is building the first AI-native investment bank for the innovation economy. Founded by Goldman alumni, we combine vast deal experience with AI-first execution to deliver best‑in‑class capital market services to the tech ecosystem.

Where digital banks redefined retail banking for good, investment banking has barely evolved. Wall Street still runs on armies of analysts and PowerPoints to deliver a service that is slow, costly, and outdated - keeping great advice out of reach for most founders.

Our mission is to change this.

Purpose‑built from real deal experience, our AI platform automates the manual work in credit advisory and turns deal data into actionable intelligence. This enables our bankers to deliver smarter advice, faster execution, and better outcomes for our clients.

And it’s working. Fundflow has already raised over $400M in private credit for startups – from $10M venture debt rounds to $100M pre‑IPO facilities – establishing Fundflow as a trusted partner to founders and lenders alike. We’re now growing our investment banking team to scale this impact across Europe.

Job Description

We’re looking for an exceptional dealmaker who wants to build, not just advise.

As an Investment Banker at Fundflow, you will focus on sourcing, structuring, and executing private‑credit transactions for Europe’s most ambitious startups and scale‑ups. You’ll leverage our AI platform to streamline executions, and collaborate with the founders to continually improve how deals get done.

With strong deal flow, a tested tech stack, and a growing client base, we’re now scaling our team by hiring new bankers. Come build the future of investment banking with us!

What You Will Do

• Drive deals from pitch to close. Use your commercial instinct to win mandates, balance the interests of founders and lenders, and push every transaction to completion.
• Source new opportunities. Build and execute strategies to capture deal flow from new markets and partners, working closely with the founders to refine origination tactics.
• Own relationships. Develop lasting trust with founders and lenders, creating the foundation for repeat transactions and long‑term partnerships.
• Shape the future of banking. Identify opportunities to streamline and automate workflows; collaborate with the founders and tech functions to improve our AI‑driven platform.

What we are looking for

• Credit Experience: 3‑5 years in investment banking, debt advisory, or private credit. You’ve executed complex financings and know how to get deals over the line.
• Analytical Judgment: Deep grasp of credit analysis, structuring, and investor dynamics, with the ability to turn complex capital needs into clear, actionable solutions.
• Relationship Builder: Confident communicator who builds trust fast with founders and lenders, balancing empathy with commercial edge.
• Commercial Drive: Own your mandates and pipeline – you think in terms of revenue, outcomes, and potential repeat business.
• Builder Mindset: You want to help invent the new model for investment banking – designing systems from scratch, working hand‑in‑hand with AI, and feeding every deal insight back into how the platform evolves.

Why join us

We’re building investment banking the way it should exist: efficient, intelligent, and genuinely enjoyable. No politics. No pointless late nights. No slide decks for the sake of it. If something can be automated, we automate it. If something requires real thinking, we do it properly with AI at our side.

We trust smart people to deliver great work and reward them like owners. Bring in revenue, and you earn directly from it. Improve our workflows, and you’ll share in the value you create. Titles don’t matter here. Impact does.

Join early, work on live transactions with some of Europe’s most exciting startups, and help rebuild how deals get done. If you’d rather shape the future of investment banking than polish another slide deck, you’ll fit right in.
