Revolution Ventures is looking to bring on a new class of Associates – one full-time role in our Washington, DC office and one full-time role in our San Francisco office. As part of our investment team, you’ll have the unique opportunity to partner with our founders, provide portfolio support, drive our due diligence and sourcing processes, and develop new investment themes. The role is a 2-year commitment, structured to accelerate your career in venture with the potential for longer-term career advancement based upon individual performance and firm needs.

Responsibilities include:

  • Work with portfolio companies to execute on strategic growth initiatives, including building financial models, cohort analyses, market research, and any other projects that will help our companies accelerate their success
  • Source new investments by building deep relationships with entrepreneurs, funds, and other key ecosystem participants and help support our sourcing engine and processes

  • Build your investment management and influence skills by managing processes that span every member of our investment team
  • Grow your network of entrepreneurs and operators building the next-generation of category-leading companies

We believe the strength of our team comes from diverse backgrounds and experiences. You might be a good fit if:

  • You have a strong process orientation with an affinity for executing projects involving multiple stakeholders. You’re deeply organized and reliable.
  • Solid analytical and financial modeling skills – ability to synthesize disparate data and facts into a single cohesive view.
  • Strong project management and communication skills (written and verbal).
  • You hustle hard. You have a strong track record of scrappiness and are a quick learner.
  • You’re fascinated by technology and how today’s entrepreneurs are shaping the future.
  • You’re a phenomenal teammate with a low ego, equally up for data entry as you are for meeting with CEOs.
  • You have the polish and presence to represent our firm and our values while interacting with founders and other C-level executives.
  • Minimum of 2 years of professional experience in investment banking/consulting or operating experience at a startup.
  • Prior experience/knowledge of consumer/e-commerce, marketplaces, fintech, insuretech, proptech, SMB/enterprise software, or blockchain categories a plus.
