We’re Hiring!
🚨 We interrupt your regularly scheduled blog post for an important announcement 🚨
Panache Ventures is hiring!
I have no idea what’s going on in this photo…
Following the close of our recently announced $100M Fund II, we’re looking to add two more members to our team as we continue our mission of supporting the most ambitious Canadian founders from coast-to-coast-to-coast.
Each of these individuals will play a critical role in Panache’s operations, interacting with founders, LPs, and others across the Canadian tech ecosystem. You’ll learn all about how the venture capital industry operates, while working closely alongside the entire Panache team.
And by learning, I mean to say that prior VC experience is not a requirement for either role.
We believe that part of our mandate at Panache is to bring more people into the venture capital ecosystem. If you’re searching for an opportunity to enter the venture capital industry, these might be for you:
Position #1: Marketing and Community Lead
We’re looking for a Marketing and Community Lead to spearhead Panache’s marketing, communications and community relations efforts.
Your responsibilities will include:
Handling all marketing communications with portfolio founders, LPs and the broader tech community
Managing our online presence, including our website, blogs, and social media
Overseeing logistics and communications for Panache Academy, our San Francisco-based virtual accelerator
Managing and cultivating our community of 200+ founders across Canada
Organizing and running in-person and online events
This role is based in Vancouver, where you’ll work alongside yours truly. Apply now!
Who wants to work with this guy 👍👍
Position #2: Finance Manager
We’re also looking for a Finance Manager, since it turns out that making sure the numbers are correct is pretty important as a VC.
Your core responsibilities will span three key areas: financial management, portfolio support and investor relations, including:
Overseeing our bookkeeper and accounting administrators (this is not a bookkeeping role!)
Managing the fund’s budget and expense processes
Supervising portfolio reporting and generating/sharing insights on our financial, DEI and ESG performance
Compiling financial presentations and other communications for investors/LPs
Sourcing and managing finance tools and infrastructure
Tracking and maintaining key internal control policies and procedures
This role is based in Toronto, where you’ll report to my significantly more responsible Partner, Prashant. Apply now!
While prior VC experience is not a requirement for either role, ideal candidates will have had some exposure to the startup world, such as having previously worked at a startup or at an agency, consulting firm, etc. that services startups.
We are proud to be a truly national VC fund, with founders and LPs across Canada. The ability to communicate in both English and French is strongly preferred for both roles. We are an equal opportunity employer and welcome candidates of all backgrounds to apply.

I hope you’ll join us!
