Our client, a specialist investment arm of one of the world's leading sovereign wealth funds, is seeking to hire an Investment Director for their Global Venture Capital team, focused on origination, execution and portfolio management of technology company investments
The team has an initial mandate to deploy USD 3bn into new investments and primarily targets initial tickets ranging in size from USD 20m to USD 100m, with the capability to take both minority and majority stakes in portfolio companies
Our client's preference is to hire candidates from premier venture funds or global investment funds with dedicated VC teams investing into the US, Europe or Asia, though candidates from emerging markets funds may also be considered
Our client would require candidates to relocate to the Middle East if not already based locally
