About the role
Remote role based in Toronto, Canada
We are looking to hire for this role on a B2B consultancy agreement while still providing all the benefits outlined in the job description.
Role Overview 🚀
Are you a detail-oriented, analytical thinker looking to make a meaningful impact in the world of start-ups? At Uncapped, we invest in growing businesses and in ambitious founders and we are looking for a talented Investment Analyst to join our Investment team.
This is an exciting opportunity to learn how to assess digital / e-commerce companies and be a part of the venture ecosystem. We are a small team and you will have the opportunity to work directly with our portfolio companies and play a role in our investment decisions.
In this role, you'll get to work with a diverse group of e-commerce founders and help them secure the financing they need to grow their businesses. You'll use your expertise in financial analysis and credit assessment to make strategic recommendations to the Credit Committee. You'll need to be able to analyse financial statements and business plans and communicate your findings in a clear and concise manner. You will act as the gatekeeper for our company, evaluating the potential risks and liabilities of businesses seeking investment. But don't think this job is all about numbers and spreadsheets - we encourage our analysts to think outside the box and come up with creative solutions for our clients, and in doing so, help fund thousands of growing businesses that are the lifeblood of the global economy and Uncapped’s future success.
