Role Overview
We’re hiring an Analyst to support Decile Capital’s fundraising operations, LP research, and internal workflows as we scale our emerging manager investment strategy.

The ideal candidate is organized, fast, and relentless about follow-through. Prior fundraising experience is a plus but not required. What matters is sharp judgment, strong writing, and the ability to manage a high volume of detail without dropping balls.

- Own LP follow-ups and diligence requests
- Prepare materials for due diligence
- Dealflow & Investment Ops
- Assist with deal intake and internal tracking
- Support due diligence workflows
- Prepare internal summaries and briefing notes
- Internal Coordination & Execution
- Manage scheduling, logistics, and documentation for fundraising processes
- Ensure accuracy and completeness across CRM and internal systems
- Drive operational improvements to increase efficiency
What You Have:
- 0-3 years of professional experience in finance, operations, VC, startups, consulting, or any role where you managed complex workflows and communicated with external stakeholders
- Comfort with CRM tools and data mangement (specific platform experience not required. You’ll learn Decile Hub quickly)
- Excellent written communication and attention to detail
- You move fast, follow up relentlessly, and take pride in closing loops
- Venture Institute or VC Lab Residency alumni
- Prior exposure to venture capital, fundraising, or investor relations
Nice to Have:
What We Offer:
