Overview

About the Role

We’re looking for a Head of Capital & Sales to own and build the capital-raising engine behind Inovexus. You’ll lead investor relations and sales across our capital-raising and deal-financing activities, working closely with family offices, UHNWIs, GPs, investors, Ventures, Finance, and Strategic Operations.

This is a high-impact leadership role for someone who combines a strong capital-raising track record with a builder’s mindset, enjoys working directly with investors, and wants to build a scalable and predictable capital engine for one of Europe’s leading early-stage venture platforms.

What you’ll bring:

  • 10+ years of experience in capital raising, investor relations, private banking, wealth management, placement, or senior B2B sales, including 4+ years managing a team.
  • Proven capital-raising track record with experience managing investor pipelines from initial interest through commitment and cash received.
  • Strong relationships with family offices, UHNWIs, GPs, private banks, or multi-family offices in France and internationally.
  • Strong understanding of sales forecasting, CRM, pipeline management, conversion rates, and revenue targets.
  • Experience building sales processes, playbooks, reporting frameworks, and high-performing teams.
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills, with the credibility to engage senior investors and partners.
  • Fluent English and French (additional languages are a plus).
  • Experience in venture capital, private markets, club deals, or SPV syndication is a strong plus.

Start Date: Q4 2026

Additional Information

Key Responsibilities

As our Head of Capital, you own one of the most important engines in the business: turning investor interest into committed capital, predictably. You'll lead the investor relations and capital team, run both of our sales motions under one operating system, and personally carry our most important investor relationships. This is a results-first, full-ownership seat across three focus areas:

1️⃣ Own the Capital Number

  • Take full ownership of capital raised, equity committed, deals financed and conversion velocity, monthly and quarterly.
  • Run both motions under one system: Capital Equity (raising for Inovexus through partner programmes, family offices and UHNWI) and Capital Invest (financing each startup round alongside business angels and partners).
  • Own the forecast of record: weekly, by owner, amount, date and risk, with interest, verbal commitment, signed commitment and cash received kept strictly separate.
  • Give Ventures a committed monthly financing capacity, and own the annual capital plan with a named owner for every euro.

2️⃣ Sales Operating System & Team Leadership

  • Lead the investor relations and capital team: daily stand-ups, clear activity standards, and weekly coaching.
  • Make the pipeline reproducible, not reactive: defined stages, real conversion assumptions, a dated next step on every conversation, and a CRM the team trusts.
  • Build separate playbooks for partner, family-office and deal-financing conversations.
  • Work hand in hand with our Strategic Operations team, which runs campaigns and lead generation, feeding them fast, specific conversion insight.

3️⃣ Senior Relationships, Partnerships & Compliance

  • Personally lead the most important family-office, GP and UHNWI opportunities, from first meeting to cash.
  • Build and hold the relationships that compound: family offices, private banks, multi-family offices, GPs and the investors who introduce other investors.
  • Partner with the Ventures team on deal timing, and with Finance on cash and reporting.
  • Keep every investor-facing conversation and artefact inside the PSFP compliance architecture.

You'll carry the most important relationships and close them yourself, owning the result end to end, and as the model proves out, build and lead the capital function beneath you.

📈 What Success Looks Like

  • Every investment vehicle closing on its stated date, against a forecast you called weeks in advance.
  • A team running at standard every day, with or without the leadership in the room.
  • A capital plan owned line by line and tracking against the yearly target.
  • A compliance record with zero exceptions to the PSFP architecture.

Who We’re Looking For

Experience & skills:

  • 10+ years in capital raising, investor relations, private banking or wealth management, placement, or senior B2B sales, including 4+ years managing a team against activity and revenue targets.
  • A capital-raising track record you can state in numbers: amounts, investor types, time to close, and your personal share.
  • A forecast history you are proud of, and the discipline to separate interest from commitment from cash.
  • Established relationships with family offices, UHNWI advisers, multi-family offices or GPs, in France and beyond.
  • Fluent with pipeline data: stages, weighted pipeline, conversion rates, time to commit. You have run a CRM, not just used one.
  • Player-coach: you close the biggest relationships and build the team that will close the rest.
  • Strong analytical depth: you know the difference between a commitment and a conversation, and report the one that's true.
  • Excellent communicator, credible with family offices, private investors, partners and founders.
  • Experience in venture capital, private markets, club deals or SPV syndication is a strong plus.

Mindset:

  • Results-first and ownership-driven, comfortable operating under a hard number with full accountability. Nothing that touches conversion is "not your problem."
  • You'd rather tell leadership the forecast is short early than explain a miss late.
  • You talk about capital closed and cash received.
  • Autonomous, structured, and resilient, with a strong bias to action.
  • Works in close proximity to Ventures and Strategic Operations; builds the system behind the scenes and shows up credibly in front of investors.

Background:

  • Bachelor's degree in business, finance, economics, or a related field; advanced degree a plus.
  • International experience or a strong interest in working in a multicultural environment.

Languages: Fluent English (C1) required. French strongly preferred; other languages are a plus.
