From Capital Factory's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
The Investor Relations Associate will get to know every active investor in Texas and help facilitate millions in venture capital funding by connecting our portfolio founders to angels and venture investors. You will be responsible for the execution of key Investor Relations programs including Investor Office Hours, helping portfolio startups understand different fundraising options and access IR resources, onboarding new investors into our community, and assisting with the launch of new IR initiatives.
You’ll use Capital Factory’s network of active investors and proprietary software tools to curate matches between investors and founders. You’ll get three years of venture capital experience in a year by observing large volumes of early stage companies and learning how VCs view and evaluate potential investments.
Capital Factory attracts the best startups in the state and connects them with exactly who they need to grow their business - whether that’s their next partner, mentor, client, employee or investor. Our Ventures Team facilitates all of these interactions - and we’re seeking a strong leader with a proven background in the startup community to optimize and grow our programming opportunities across Texas.
You have experience with the startup and technology markets.
You have a basic understanding of startup funding terms, options, and mechanisms.
You like using data to understand problems and make connections.
You are organized and plan ahead, but you don’t get stressed out when things change at the last minute. Because they will. You roll with it.
You have a proven ability to manage multiple projects at a time while paying strict attention to detail.
You have the ability to deliver high quality work, on time, in a dynamic organization under time pressure.
You are able to work at least 45 hours per week. You do what it takes to get the job done!
You plan to stay in Texas and fully commit to this position for 2+ years.
We are professional and presentable and greet everyone cheerfully. We're ready to deal with an immature student, a pushy salesperson, top VCs, a fortune 500 CEO, and even the President of the United States.
We are excited to work in downtown Austin and have reliable transportation.
We have a quiet place with fast internet where we can work remotely.
We have a reliable laptop computer and smartphone.
We are security aware. We have a passcode on our computers and phones and use a password manager.
We are available during SXSW (Spring Break) and Startup Week (the week before Austin City Limits Music Fest).
We get to Inbox Zero every day.
