Who Thrives in This Role?
Great investors can come from a broad range of backgrounds, so we’re not after any specific experience. We’re seeking individuals with the following core qualities:
- Quick learner and thinker: From genomics and machine learning to drones and financial market technologies – you must have the ability to bring yourself up to speed on new technologies, sciences and business models quickly.
- Understands people: When you invest as early as we do, much of the investment decision is about the people we invest in. The ideal candidate is someone who quickly understands a founding team’s ambitions and abilities.
- Curious: We are looking for the next great entrepreneurs and technologies, and they don’t just end up at our doorstep. We actively look for new areas and people we should know, and we expect that you will too. We are looking for people with a particular interest or background in health, climate, future of work, or fintech.
- Strong drive and the ability to self-direct: This work is open-ended by nature and an ideal candidate must be able to identify and execute on opportunities to contribute to the team with little management or direction.
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills: Well-defended opinions are necessary for discussing investments. We also believe that open-mindedness and the ability to debate and discuss are crucial to us making strong investments. Additionally, the investor will often interact with entrepreneurs and investors, at events, and sometimes to the press on behalf of Frontline — so it’s important that they are someone we’d be proud to represent us.
- Interesting, enjoyable and aligned on values: We are a small team and work closely together. This doesn’t mean we have to agree on everything, but we have to like working with each other.
