What the job involves
- We’re looking for a Program Operations Analyst to support the execution of our talent selection and venture building program at Entrepreneur First
- As part of the local Paris Operations’ team, you will work closely with our Talent Investors (TIs) to curate EF’s venture building processes, delivering EF’s core day-to-day operations and playing a pivotal role in setting the founders up for success
- You will champion EF’s unique approach to company building by enabling world class experiences for cohort members and alumni
- This is a dynamic and exciting role, with high levels of autonomy and the freedom to really shape how people experience the EF brand
- You will gain exposure to all parts of the business, partnering with a variety of internal and external stakeholders. It is a role that requires you to wear multiple hats and be comfortable managing projects end to end autonomously
- Be the eyes and ears on the ground with the founders, you will own thinking around program content and how we structure the program delivery
- Work closely with internal stakeholders to improve processes and deliver a world class customer experience for cohort members across every interaction and touchpoint
- Support with CRM/funnel management, working closely with the data and tooling teams to drive efficiency and effectiveness
- Deliver exceptional experiences including talent events where we invite a large number of potential founders, running an Interview Day, or organising an Investor Dinner to support our founders out to raise
- Activate our Paris Alumni community, driving engagement and community. We have a diverse and thriving community of portfolio companies and alumni in Paris. This will include hosting regular Alumni events, refining how we communicate with our Alumni community and build out our ecosystem
- Develop our partnership base through identifying the needs of founders and alumni and building and implementing a partnership strategy
Our take
Entrepreneur First is a “talent investor” that recruits and backs individuals pre-team and pre-idea to enable them to found startups.
The company pioneered this new model of talent investing. While other accelerators typically back founders with semi-established businesses, EF was the first to back individuals and match them with other founders during the program.
The company already has a great portfolio of investments, including Cleo, CloudNC and Permutive.
