Venture Capital and Private Equity Principals

Planet A Ventures

11-50

Germany

Planet A Ventures is a European early-stage venture capital fund supporting founders tackling our greatest systemic challenges. The fund uses rigorous scientific impact assessments to identify solutions the world cannot afford to ignore. Investments include INERATEC, Makersite, C1, HIVED, traceless materials and 44.01. As a small team with flat hierarchies, we live by our core values: excellency, transparency, trust, humbleness, conviction, and respect.

We are looking for an exceptional individual to join Planet A Ventures as an Investment Associate. In this role, you’ll work closely with our General Partners, in-house scientific advisors, and a close-knit team of purpose-driven investors. While Berlin is our hub, we welcome individuals from across Europe who are eager to help us drive measurable impact.

## Tasks

*   **Shape the future of planet-positive entrepreneurship**: Take joint responsibility for the full investment process — from spotting promising ventures and meeting visionary founders to deep-dives, expert calls, and writing proposals that turn ideas into reality.
*   **Grow our network and influence**: Build and nurture meaningful relationships across Europe’s VC landscape, with founders, and industry experts — strengthening Planet A’s reach and sharpening our deal-sourcing edge.
*   **Turn opportunities into investments**: Work side-by-side with our General Partners to bring deals across the finish line — from negotiation to closing.
*   **Dive deep into science and tech**: Develop expertise in frontier deep-tech topics that hold the keys to solving global challenges.
*   **Connect the dots and see ahead**: Prepare market and industry research that inspires new investment theses and keeps us ahead of emerging trends.
*   **Make our fund smarter every day**: Support internal projects that help Planet A become ever more thesis- and data-driven.
*   **Be an ambassador for Planet A**: Represent us at industry events, on stage, and in writing — from speaking engagements to blog posts — while actively building your own network and amplifying our presence in the venture ecosystem.

## Requirements

*   **You’ve driven impact through investing** — with a proven track record in venture capital, private equity, or related investment roles in fast-paced environments. Bonus points for a solid foundation in a scientific or engineering discipline to strengthen our science-meets-business edge.
*   **Curiosity is your superpower** — you're passionate about emerging deep-tech trends, ready to immerse yourself in uncharted waters and build deep domain knowledge.
*   **Structure meets creative hustle** — you bring exceptional self-organisation and a methodical approach to your work, while still flexing the agility to adapt and think on your feet.
*   **Confident, grounded, driven by purpose** — you engage external partners with conviction and clarity, yet lead with humility and empathy.
*   **Excellent communicator** — you're fluent in English (written and spoken), with multilingual ability being an added asset to help us connect across Europe.
*   **Mission fuels you** — you're not just after a job, you're after a reason: making a measurable difference for the planet.

## Benefits

*   **A front-row seat in planet-positive venture capital** — be an integral part of Europe’s first top-tier green-tech venture capital — investing in frontier technologies with a science-based approach to environmental impact.
*   **A mission-driven team that thrives on change** — join a dynamic environment where ambition, collaboration, and impact fuel everything we do.
*   **Flexibility at the core** — while we value time together in our Berlin Mitte office, remote work within Europe is part of our day-to-day.
*   **Growth that’s yours to shape** — benefit from an annual personal development budget, plus perks like Urban Sports or the Deutschlandticket to keep you moving.
*   **Real connections, real team spirit** — take part in our monthly co-working days and bi-annual offsites, where the whole team comes together to collaborate, reflect, and recharge.
