Venture Lead

WE ARE NOT CURRENTLY HIRING FOR THIS ROLE

The role

Venture Leads at CanDo are at the core of what we do. You will:

• Research a range of social issues, summarising available data and suggesting innovations

• Work with the team to develop plans for testing innovative ideas

• Project manage execution of those ideas, including performing a lot of early execution yourself

• Participate in external discussion about research relating to our projects

For example, one project you might work on is an initiative designed to have a material impact on the housing crisis by encouraging homeowners to take lodgers. You can expect to work on several different projects in your time at CanDo: sometimes more than one at a time.

The person

• 2-5 years professional experience in a highly analytical role (strategy consulting, banking or similar)

• Upbeat attitude, willing to perform a wide range of senior and junior tasks - whatever is required to deliver the mission

Experience teaches us that the best venture leads are very talented, rather than very knowledgeable. As a result we do not need you to have relevant career experience or any domain knowledge - but we do need a highly flexible mind.

Compensation

The primary reason for taking this role is the opportunity to learn best-practice entrepreneurship working on important, exciting problems - but we do realise you need to be paid too. Salary will be £60k-£65k depending on experience, plus profit-share of up to £15k per annum.
