Do you want to be part of our Investment Team? Accelerace is searching for a new Venture Scout to be part of our team – We are 15 people in an intensive and fun environment that will provide you with valuable knowledge about the global startup environment.

We are searching for a student with a passion towards startups, perhaps even some experience in starting one themselves, who is motivated to learn new things quickly and not afraid to fill in the gaps in our small team.

Your tasks will be to

• Spearhead the outreach process on different channels (SoMe, E-mail) and other channels with our advanced outreach tools

• Search, identify and pitch top Nordic startups

• Engage with the best startups through competitions, accelerator programs, databases etc.

• Evaluate startup applications and recommend startups for our acceleration programs, investment and corporate partnerships

• Prepare presentations and market research for our corporate partners

• Participate in team meetings, sharing best practices in the team

The right candidate

• You are currently enrolled at one of the Danish Universities based around Copenhagen or Aarhus.

• You are good at communicating, attracting and motivating startups.

• You are curious to know how to spot, attract and motivate the right startups through targeted marketing and communication.

• You are analytical with a structured mind, and you have commercial understanding, knowing that it is seldom the best technical solution that wins in the marketplace, but the one that knows how to make money.

• You take responsibility and engage actively in your tasks with the goal to deliver better than expected, always adhering to deadlines. 

What we offer 

• Conversations with inspiring founders on a daily basis

• Knowledge of how to evaluate and choose investments for our venture fund

• Engaging with leading corporate customers with innovation on the agenda

• Experience in how an accelerator and a VC fund work (or, to be more specific: The prominent startup accelerator in the Nordics and the most active pre-seed VC investor in Denmark)

• Free lunch, coffee and office space in either Aarhus or Copenhagen, together with 150+ other startups  

• The most committed and knowledgeable colleagues when it comes to entrepreneurship since most of us are serial entrepreneurs ourselves

• Working in a small but passionate team where we continuously strive to learn and improve in all aspects of what we do

• High level of responsibility and a fast learning curve
