Founders Factory is unlike anywhere else.

Our studio is a fast track for talented people to become founders.

We create entirely new products from scratch, leverage data, distribution and IP from our partners, then build founding teams that can spin out into fully fledged businesses.

**Our Culture

Working with us is very different from other companies.

It's not just a job - instead, a pursuit that we live and breathe every single day.

We are resilient business builders, incredibly passionate and thrive in uncertainty.

We want to obtain a deeper understanding of the conditions that lead to successful innovation.

We hope to show there is a better way to build tech startups and take on the issues of why most startups fail.

We are creating something meaningful and get paid to learn at an incredible pace.

**About The Role

As our Talent Investor, you will primarily work within our venture studio finding exceptional founders.

You will work closely with our ventures from concept to execution, having a distinct influence on the founder acquisition journey.

You will then work very closely with the founders you bring in the studio to help find them a founding team, enabling each studio business to go further, faster.

You have the opportunity to implement your own ways of working, launch & iterate on model tests, strategize and roll out solutions that help us source and onboard founders at pace, at scale and with maximum retention.
