Job Details

This is one of the region's earliest venture franchises, set up more than ten years ago and still run by the same founding team. It writes seed and Series A cheques into founder-led technology businesses across the Gulf. Capital sits in two separate vehicles - a traditional closed-end fund alongside an evergreen structure that lets the team stay in its best companies indefinitely and re-invest behind founders they already know. The results speak for themselves. Well over a hundred companies backed, several that went on to become billion-dollar businesses, a public listing and close to twenty trade sales. Several of the household-name technology companies in the Middle East today had this firm on the cap table at seed. The finance function is small and senior. Whoever takes this seat becomes the operational backbone of both vehicles rather than one contributor among many.
