Venture Analyst, full-time / part-time (m/w/d)

As a Venture Analyst with Schosswald & Co. you work at the intersection of research, analysis and matchmaking.

  • You analyze, decode and summarize emerging markets, technologies and business models, both from an independent point of view as well as through the application-minded, entrepreneurial lenses of our clients.
  • You make use of any and all tools available to cut through the noise and hype, and to identify truly promising startups, products and services.
  • You analyze and evaluate relevant startups and venture opportunities efficiently, using your gut and our full-stack outside-in framework.
  • You are an essential part of creating mutually relevant opportunities between startups and established companies with significant strategic business impact, ranging from strategic partnerships (e.g. in development or distribution) to strategic investments and M&A.

What you can expect from us:

  • Flexible engagement and working hours: Whether you want to work with us full-time or part-time, on a project or ongoing basis, we will find the right model that works for all of us.
  • So. much. Interesting stuff. The kind of analytical work we do, combining big picture strategic foresight with on-the-ground venture research, essentially means that we are getting paid to understand cutting edge technologies, upcoming startups and disruptive business models.
  • Software today, Hardware tomorrow and Biotech the day after. Immerse yourself in a variety of cases, and learn to connect the dots.
  • Learn from the best. We have exceptional analysts in our ranks whose work has paved the way to iconic deals and success stories. We have an AMA (“ask me anything”) culture internally, keeping everyone’s learning curve as steep as is fun.
  • Work from anywhere you like. We are proud to be remote-first.
  • Super-family-friendly work environment. We keep meetings to a minimum and make sure there are always enough analysts on any project to shoulder the workload collectively, without unnecessary stress.
  • Competitive pay.

What we expect from you:

  • At least 2 years experience in market research, venture or investment analysis or similar fields.
  • An affinity to and a general curiosity about Tech and startups.
  • Previous experience with using research and venture databases, and an ability to see through and to integrate data from various sources.
  • Great attention to detail. Your work informs impactful decisions, so what we expect from you as well as ourselves is more than due diligence.
  • A passion for matchmaking. Our work provides the foundation for real world partnerships between entrepreneurs, companies and industries. We want to work with people who can think associatively, who can connect the dots and who are eager to not only analyze, but to synthesize and bring together.
  • Good vibes. We work in teams across borders and time zones, and everything depends on people coming together with a constructive and caring attitude.
