Venture Capital and Private Equity Principals

Project A Ventures

51-200

Germany

Project A backs early-stage companies in Europe in the digital technology space. But we are more than a typical VC - we provide our ventures with capital and an extensive network, yet our core differentiator is the wide range of operational expertise and support we offer. With our unique organisational structure featuring more than 100 operational experts, we exclusively offer our portfolio companies hands-on support in the areas of Tech, Marketing, Product, Design, Communications, Data, Sales and Recruiting. Our portfolio includes companies such as Trade Republic, Spryker, Kry, and Sennder.

We’re looking for a Founder with an entrepreneurial mindset, combined with a passion for supply chain & logistics and building a long-lasting, successful company. (For our view of the broader Supply Chain Tech landscape, take a look at .) Someone who has the courage to take apart, analyse, understand - and then the ambition and resilience to build something generational. This may come in many forms - we are not looking for specific stereotypes. Experience in building companies, consulting and managing business units is desirable.

Subject matter experts or industry experts who have identified a unique need in a specific segment, or are leaders in their technical domain are encouraged to apply, as well as Tech & Product leaders, and software engineers who can translate a vision into reality. If you have a passion for building high-value customer experiences, by combining an iterative product development process with thorough market research, you are just who we are looking for. 

## **In this role you’ll:**

* Be fully involved with the normal chaos and uncertainty of building a company
* Collaborate with decision makers/experts speaking honestly throughout the company building process
* Have constant access to our investment managers who will support, guide and provide honest feedback from an investor's perspective
* Spar with the investment team for industry hypotheses and have the opportunities for exchanges with functional experts
* Engage in important steps such as early validation, user research and conducting interviews
* Be involved in the ideation processes: creating a MVP, raising a funding round and hiring top talent

## **Your Profile**

* Experience in and a deep knowledge of Supply Chain Logistics and logistics automation/digitalisation implementations
* Having a unique insight in Supply Chain or Logistics (e.g. through substantial industry expertise through consulting or vacancies in traditional logistic players) that will be embedded in your company and results in a competitive advantage
* A strong track record in a senior operational role within a fast-growing startup or scale-up, with a prior focus on logistics and/or procurement.
* Perseverance to keep trying and break through the obstacle ahead
* You are comfortable in a flexible, highly dynamic, uncertain and volatile environment
* Intrinsic motivation and an inner drive gets you up every morning and encourages other to join you on that journey

Please note that we are looking for support in our Berlin office. Eligibility to work within the EU is required as well.
