Focus on value creation, turnaround support, and board-ready reporting.

Role Overview
We’re hiring one mid-level Associate to lead portfolio execution across ASF. This is not a sourcing-first role. We want someone who’s already managed companies, handled founder complexity, and can turn data into insight—and insight into action.
You will:
- Own 8–12 active portfolio companies, reporting directly to a Principal
- Run KPI tracking, quarterly reviews, and intervention planning
- Lead analysts focused on data quality, financial performance, and board-ready reporting
- Support AOP reviews, follow-on round preparation, and founder-side support
- Help turnaround underperforming companies or flag red flags early
This is a Partner-track role for a portfolio operator, not a pipeline hunter.
What You’ll Lead
Portfolio Oversight & Value Creation
- Lead structured monthly and quarterly reviews across 8–12 active companies
- Track KPIs across revenue, org design, GTM execution, hiring, and cash flow
- Collaborate with founders to build or challenge AOPs and hiring plans
- Flag underperformance early, and recommend interventions to the Principal
- Support downstream rounds—materials, narrative, and investor calibration
Founder Alignment & Support
- Maintain high-touch relationships with founding teams
- Push for accountability without overstepping—own the “trusted challenger” seat
- Act as the first escalation point for operational fire drills
- Navigate difficult founder dynamics with maturity and clarity
Analyst Team Management
- Lead 1–2 analysts in tracking and interpreting portfolio data
- Ensure output is accurate, timely, and IC-ready
- Drive reporting discipline, deadline adherence, and performance visibility
Investment Support & Execution
- Support Principals on live deals: due diligence, benchmarking, IC memos
- Review models, validate AOP assumptions, and identify operational risks pre-investment
- Manage post-deal integration into the portfolio review system
Who You Are
- A buy-side trained portfolio manager, not just a transaction executor
- Strong at handling complexity, ambiguity, and cross-functional founders
- Can turn disorganized startup data into structured insights
- Comfortable leading junior team members, reporting up to Principals, and working cross-border
- Deep understanding of founder psychology, cap tables, burn, and operating leverage
Required Experience
- 3–5 years in venture capital, private equity, or cross-stage fund investing
- Must have managed a portfolio of 5+ companies, including KPI and founder oversight
- Must have supported AOP planning, follow-on fundraising, or company turnarounds
- Must have closed at least 2 investments end-to-end on the buy-side
- MBA or CA required OR strong proof of financial modeling, AOP structuring, and decision-prep ownership
- Experience managing analysts or junior team members in fund settings is a plus
Candidates with only investment banking, transaction advisory, or consulting backgrounds will not be considered.
Compensation Structure
- Total Annual Package: ₹26,50,000
- ₹20,00,000 fixed annual salary
- ₹3,25,000 confirmed annual retention bonus (paid every 12 months)
- ₹3,25,000 ESOP grant annually (each annual grant comes with its own vesting schedule)
- Performance bonus (based on portfolio success and personal execution)
- Carry participation (disclosed during the final interview stage)
Fixed compensation is non-negotiable. All upside is earned through performance.
