About the Role :

We are looking for a strategic, sharp, and entrepreneurial professional who can drive our fundraising efforts end-to-end. This role requires someone who deeply understands our business, can articulate our growth story, and can build a compelling investment thesis that resonates with investors globally. The ideal candidate has prior experience in investment banking, fundraising, venture advisory, or similar environments.

You will work closely with the Founders, Business Heads, and key stakeholders to refine our pitch, identify investor segments, and lead conversations with VCs, angels, family offices, and strategic partners.

Key Responsibilities :

Fundraising Strategy & Execution

  • Develop and execute a structured fundraising strategy aligned with our business roadmap.
  • Build and own the complete investor pipeline—VCs, angels, institutional funds, accelerators, and strategic investors.
  • Drive the entire fundraising lifecycle : outreach, follow-ups, negotiations, diligence coordination, and closure.

Investor Pitch & Storytelling

  • Deeply understand our product, vision, market, competitive landscape, and roadmap.
  • Craft compelling pitch decks, narratives, and supporting materials tailored for different investor types.
  • Deliver high-impact pitches and represent the company in investor meetings, events, and forums.

    • Investment Thesis & Financial Modelling

  • Build a strong investment thesis showcasing market opportunity, differentiation, traction, and long-term value.
  • Create financial models, projections, and business cases that align with investor expectations.
  • Prepare data rooms, diligence documentation, and strategic reports.

    • Stakeholder Management

  • Maintain strong, consistent communication with potential and existing investors.
  • Establish a cadence of updates, reporting, and relationship nurturing post-fundraise.
  • Collaborate closely with internal teams to gather accurate metrics, market insights, and product updates.

    • Market Intelligence

  • Track industry trends, comparable deals, competitor movements, and investor preferences.
  • Advise leadership on fundraising timing, valuation benchmarks, and deal structures.

    • Requirements :

  • 4–8 years of experience in investment banking, VC / PE, fundraising roles, corporate strategy , or related fields.
  • Strong understanding of financial modelling, valuations, investor expectations, and startup economics.
  • Excellent pitching, communication, and narrative-building skills.
  • Experience in crafting investor-ready materials (decks, memos, thesis documents).
  • Strong network within the startup, VC, or financial ecosystem (preferred).
  • Ability to work closely with founders and operate in a dynamic, fast-moving environment.

    • Preferred Qualities :

  • Sharp analytical thinking with the ability to simplify complex ideas.
  • High executive presence and confidence in investor-facing interactions.
  • Storyteller mindset with financial discipline.
  • Strong ownership, persistence, and ability to handle multiple conversations simultaneously.

    • What We Offer :

  • Opportunity to shape the company’s growth trajectory at a strategic level.
  • High visibility and direct access to founders and leadership.
  • A role where your work directly impacts long-term growth, valuation, and market positioning.
