We’re Hiring MBA Associates in Harvard Square & SoHo!
Founder Collective
Our Mission: Building the most aligned VC fund for founders at the seed stage. [email protected]
We were early investors in Uber, Airtable, The Trade Desk, Suno, Cruise, PillPack, SeatGeek, Coupang, Whoop, Formlabs, and many, many more great startups. Now, we’d like to be early backers of your career.
About Founder Collective?
Founder Collective is a seed-stage venture capital firm built by entrepreneurs. Our mission is to be the most aligned fund for founders at the seed stage. This goal informs everything we do. We keep our fund size small. The GPs are the biggest LPs in the fund — we’re principals, not agents. We’re not lifecycle investors — we invest at the beginning and align our interests by diluting alongside founders over time. Everyone on the investment team has founded a startup or massively scaled one. All these choices align our interests with the founders and make Founder Collective a unique partner for entrepreneurs.
Over the last dozen years, we’ve backed over 20 $1B+ startups, but we’re just getting started and could use your help. You will gain real skills in every facet of venture capital and shape the investments we make. We treat MBA Associates as members of the team rather than interns simply getting work done for us. This position is a year-long commitment that begins in the spring semester on a part-time basis, goes full-time during the summer, and returns to part-time during the following academic year.
Who We’re Looking For
We’re looking for MBAs to join our team during the spring semester and then be with us in our Harvard Square and SoHo offices in person over the summer and through the academic year! You’ll be a vital part of the team, and your responsibilities will include:
?? Sourcing deals
?? Meeting with founders
?? Driving diligence efforts
??? Conducting market analysis and building models
?? Supporting portfolio companies
?? Making reference calls
领英推荐
?? Influencing fund strategy via research and presentations
And much more…
In return, the FC team will provide significant mentorship, coaching, and feedback. We believe that the venture business is a craft that is best learned by practice. We invest heavily in our investment team, and many of our former associates have gone on to great things — starting $1B+ startups , launching their own funds , joining many great VC funds , or stepping into leadership roles at major companies like DoorDash , Google , and UnitedHealthcare .
Qualifications
Most of all, the Associate needs to build rapport with prospective and current portfolio companies and become a trusted, value-add member of our small team.
Compensation
This is a paid position. The MBA Associate position begins in the spring semester on a part-time basis, moves to a full-time commitment for the summer, and continues on through the following academic year on a part-time basis. When part-time, it is about 10–20 hours per week with an in-person component. Your total compensation will depend on the number of hours worked per week but the hourly wage range is $32 to $40. The position does not qualify for benefits given the part-time nature of the role.
How to Apply
