How is Chief of Staff different from an investment analyst
This role is not a long-term investment role. Instead, it is an ideal opportunity to get involved with building incredible start ups and to learn from the best to sharpen your skills for becoming an entrepreneur down the road.
You are not expected to source start ups. Rather, you will work with our Partner to help review, analyse, and prioritise existing deal flow and support our portfolios.
