Altis is a venture intelligence platform that helps investors make faster, better decisions on Series A/B/C companies. We conduct deep primary research — expert interviews with customers, competitors, and industry specialists — to build the analysis that drives investment committee decisions.
We’re backed by Primary Venture Partners, co-founded by a Midas-list investor, and scaling quickly. We’re a lean, high-ownership team building from the ground up. If you want to be close to the action in venture and learn how the best investors and operators think, this is the role.
The Network & Client Services team is the engine of the Altis research process. As the Founding Director, you’ll build our client service function from the ground up. You’ll own the most important relationships we have: our clients. You’ll make sure they’re gaining real value from our work, deepening their engagement over time, and surfacing commercial opportunities that grow the relationship. This is not a support role. You’re the primary point of contact for our portfolio of clients, responsible for retention, expansion, and the overall health of each relationship.
You’re a relationship-driven operator who wants real ownership early. You’ll be a fit if:
You’re excited by the idea of managing and developing a team early in your career
You thrive in ambiguous, fast-paced environments
You’re a natural relationship builder who can operate with equal credibility across junior analysts and senior partners at top-tier venture funds
