• Strong financial modelling skills – exit return analysis, valuation benchmarking, transaction structuring and scenario modelling.

• Familiarity with the Indian VC/startup ecosystem, SEBI AIF regulations, and early-stage company dynamics.
• Adaptable and composed under pressure – this role operates in a fast-moving, deadline-driven environment which would require the ability to manage multiple live transactions simultaneously and stay organised under time constraints. Being able to make sound judgments with minimal supervision is non-negotiable.
