Investment position at henQ
Position title: Investment team member
Location: Partly Amsterdam, partly where you work best
Workload: Full-time, with varying intensity
Compensation: Negotiable
The challenge
henQ is looking for a new Investment team member to join our team. Responsible for henQ’s deal flow, you are a key-player in henQ’s growth and success. Are you interested in working in Venture Capital, do you get excited by building companies and are you up for the challenge to make henQ one of the most successful B2B software venture capital firms in Europe? Then read on!
About henQ
henQ Capital Partners (henq.nl) is managed by a small team of six individuals, each with our own expertise, responsibilities and added value to our portfolio. henQ’s latest fund (henQ III) is a €50 million venture capital fund, from which we invest in business-to-business (B2B) software companies in the BeNeLux and Europe. In our work we are driven by three core values:
About the role
As Investment team member your main responsibility is to manage henQ’s deal flow. This consists of two main pillars:
On a day-to-day basis, the above means a substantial amount of desk research and skim reading through the investor decks that are sent to henQ on a weekly basis. Quick and professional follow-up with companies is required. You will have to quickly reject dozens of highly like-able and ambitious entrepreneurs each month, as we have a very strict investment focus and invest in less than 1% of all the companies we look at.
Depending on how well you manage your core responsibility of deal flow, there is always room to take on additional projects and challenges within henQ or the portfolio (e.g. improving inbound marketing for different portfolio companies, joining in board meetings, etc.). Moreover, if you fit the team and the role of venture capitalist, there are no limits within henQ in achieving your ambitions of becoming a great investor.
Skills & interests
Having the skills, interests and stamina needed for this role, is far more important than specific experience. We are looking for a team-member who:
Motivation & character
You will be happy and successful as an Investment team member if you recognize yourself in henQ's core values. Our compact team has a strong identity that feeds on freedom and independence. In addition you want to show your value in a complete meritocracy, in which resume nor seniority will limit or protect you from the true level of your own competencies. A slightly non-conformist attitude will bring you a long way; if there is a fit, the sky is the limit to what you can achieve.
Apply by sending an email with your to the point motivation and your resume to naomi@henq.nl. We look forward to welcoming our seventh henQ team-member!

Our mission is to be the first VC any European B2B software company meets from the moment they start their business. Among our most notable investments are software vendors such as Mendix, Sendcloud, Mews, Zivver, Orderchamp and Stravito. We are currently investing from our fourth fund, which is €80M in size. When working with potential and existing investments, we try to be different in how we do business. Mostly by being honest and direct, about both the good and bad things in life.
