Job Description:
About Alumni Ventures Group Alumni Ventures Group is a fast-growing organization that builds
and manages alumni and focused venture capital funds. Our corporate
headquarters, located in Manchester, NH, provides support and other
resources to our funds across the country. On an annual basis,
these funds raise money from individual, accredited investors to
invest in venture and other alternative assets. With over 140 team
members in our offices in Manchester, Boston, New York, Chicago,
Austin and San Francisco, AVG has launched more than 20 venture
funds over the past six years. We are underway with plans for
another dozen or so funds over the next few years. We are private,
for-profit, and not part of any school. We pride ourselves on making a key asset class accessible to
investors who were previously shut out of venture capital-and our
rapid growth confirms that we are addressing a real pain point for
investors. Unlike most VC funds that raise money from a handful of
institutions, our funds raise money in smaller amounts from a large
group of investors, then build diverse venture portfolios for our
investors. We don't lead deals, but rather co-invest alongside
established, well-known firms such as KP, Bessemer, Menlo Ventures,
Mark Cuban, Andreessen, Khosla, NEA, and others. ABOUT ALUMNI VENTURES GROUP AVG's purpose is to grow and engage with this inclusive
community of teammates, investors, and entrepreneurs to disrupt the
status quo and build a better future. Fueled by a disruptive
business model and an innovative solution for an underserved
market, Alumni Ventures Group (AVG) is growing rapidly, with
roughly 100 employees working from locations in Boston, Chicago,
New York City, the Bay Area, Austin, and a headquarters in
Manchester, NH. AVG provides accredited investors with a smart simple way to own
high-quality, professionally-managed venture portfolios. AVG offers
dozens of distinct funds, including: 16 Alumni Funds that support
the entrepreneurial ecosystems of the alumni of top universities
nationwide; Focused Funds that offer specific investment themes
broadly to accredited investors; and Syndication investment Funds
in individual start-up companies, and more. We are private,
for-profit, and not affiliated with any school. AVG is a fast-paced
work environment with a dedicated approach to growth and innovation
that is centered on regular change, experimentation, learning (from
both failures and successes), iteration, and continuous
improvement. AVG has raised over $500 million; has invested in over 500
portfolio companies on behalf of thousands of accredited investors;
and supports a widespread, engaged community of more than 500,000
stakeholders that includes investors, entrepreneurs, subscribers
and community members. AVG typically co-invests with established
venture firms and does not lead investment rounds or take board
seats. Last year, AVG was the third most-active venture investor in
the US. ABOUT THIS ROLE As AVG continues to grow, we continually seek experienced
investment professionals with strong school ties who can contribute
to both driving our community (fundraising, community engagement,
and relationship development) and our investing (sourcing,
recruiting, researching, and evaluating deals) capabilities. Managing Partners are full-time professionals at AVG based out
of our New York, Chicago, Boston, Austin, or San Francisco offices.
As Managing Partner, you will report to and work closely with the
Investment Team Board (comprised of AVG's CEO, CIO, CCO, and COO)
and lead the growth and development of one of our Core Funds. These
are salaried positions, with a comprehensive benefits package and
some travel as defined by the iTeam Board for the successful
execution of your responsibilities. Please note that we will contact candidates we are interested in
speaking with as opportunities relevant to your skills and
experience are identified. REQUIREMENTS DESIRED TRAITS RESPONSIBILITIES COMPENSATION Alumni Ventures Group is an equal opportunity employer and our
team is committed to achieving and supporting a diverse workforce
through fair and equitable Talent and people management practices.
We consider applicants for all positions given the needs of our
business and the relevant team, and the skills, experience and
competencies each candidate brings. If you are excited about the
work AVG is doing and believe your skills, experience and
competencies can create impact for our team, our Investors and our
portfolio companies, we encourage you to apply. Your candidacy will
be considered based on your ability to add value, regardless of
your race, color, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity,
national origin, veteran or disability status.
