This is not an Executive Assistant role. It is a pivotal position in the Founders Office, specifically designed for venture capital. You will coordinate between the Founder, Principals, Associates, and deals in progress.

You will:

• Track deal progress, follow-ups, bottlenecks, and IC preparation across the venture team
• Represent the Founder in meetings, review calls, and negotiations when required
• Manage internal execution hygiene: no drop-offs, delays, or unforced errors
• Coordinate with LPs, legal, and internal teams to unblock high-priority workflows

This role offers a rare opportunity to operate as a force multiplier to the Managing Partner, with direct visibility into fund-level decision-making. There is a clear path for advancement to roles such as Principal based on performance over 2-3 years.

• Strategic Deal Execution & Flow Tracking: Monitor live deals, ensure follow-ups, and clear bottlenecks. Attend meetings and ensure documentation and accountability.
• Founder Support & Venture Ops: Filter inbound asks, prepare briefing notes, data sheets, and key context for meetings. Draft notes, pre-reads, investor decks, and updates.
• Cross-Team & External Coordination: Act as the link between investment team, legal, fund operations, and external advisors. Manage timelines and dependencies.
• Execution Hygiene & System Setup: Own deal tracking sheets, checklists, and calendars. Standardize task workflows and ensure visibility.

• A detail-oriented VC professional with a passion for order, follow-through, and operational visibility.
• 35+ years in venture capital, private equity, or fund operations with direct deal execution exposure.
• Capable of managing multiple deals and stakeholders efficiently.
• Comfortable representing the Managing Partner in various settings.
• Fast, structured, and calm under pressure, especially during chaos.

• MBA or CA qualification required.
• 35+ years in VC/PE/fund investing or fund operations roles (deal-execution adjacent).
• Strong understanding of venture capital workflows: sourcing, diligence, IC, legal.
• Proven track record in execution, prioritization, and coordination roles.
• Excellent writing skills: notes, memos, decks, follow-ups.

• ₹20,00,000 fixed annual salary (paid monthly)

• ₹3,25,000 ESOP grant (vesting as per policy)
