We're Hiring! - Platform & Operations

Position Description:

We are searching for a full­-time Platform & Operations role to support our ambitious goals. This is an incredible opportunity for someone gifted with an entrepreneurial spirit to be involved in the growth of a venture fund and to interact with our partnership, entrepreneurs, and the early­stage startup ecosystem in New York and beyond.

In this role, you will have 3 key areas of responsibilities:

(1) Portfolio support
(2) Marketing, Communications, and Brand Awareness
(3) Firm Operations

This is NOT an investment position and as such you will not be working on new investment opportunities as this is a crucial position requiring full attention to succeed; however, given the collaborative and boutique nature of the firm, you will be exposed to all facets of venture capital as a critical team member, participating in in our weekly team meetings where we review new deals and existing portfolio companies.

The ideal candidate is a self-­motivated, multi-­talented player, that is detail oriented, process minded and action driven, eager to innovate strategically and tactically, can adapt, learn new things quickly, and determine the most efficient solution to meaningful challenges for our firm and our entrepreneurs, and is a strong writer.

At Red Sea Ventures, we value ambition, hustle, self-­motivation, independence, creativity, positivity, results, and humility – and are looking for like-­minded candidates.

Responsibilities:

• Portfolio support

  • Solve critical challenges for our founders. Work closely with our portfolio companies to best understand their needs, create valuable solutions, and engage and support them by delivering these solutions in innovative ways
     
  • Build and maintain one of the best networks in New York. Build and manage the Red Sea Ventures Expert Network by leveraging our investors and advisors, as well as engaging with the larger tech and startup ecosystem to create new networks and strategic relationships for our portfolio founders

• RSV Marketing and Communication

  • Communicate our message to the world. Manage all RSV external communication (social media, monthly community newsletter, LP newsletter...)

  • Develop and share our insights. Assist in development of Red Sea Ventures content for distribution to broader community on recurring basis

  • Create an environment that consistently brings great people together. Strategize on, plan and produce RSV events with entrepreneurs, high ­level technology executives, and the greater NY venture community (dinners, Table Talk, RSV Founder events, GP events, LP events, conferences)

  • Increase Red Sea’s presence at key ecosystem events across the country. Plan team’s involvement at broader tech and industry events in NY and across the country

• Operations

  • Work directly with and provide leverage for our Partners. Support the partnership in their day­-to-­day operational activities (Finance, Admin, Monday meeting preparation, benchmarking, etc.)

  • Execute on special projects. Project manage other internal initiatives that come through the partnership — ad hoc portfolio requests, etc.
     

Required Skills and Experience:

• Natural relationship­ builder with strong communication and interpersonal skills and a proven ability to foster communication and cooperation among diverse individuals online and offline

• Self-­motivated with dedicated work ethic and entrepreneurial attitude, thriving in fast­ moving work environments: you are independent, proactive, and feel comfortable executing with little direction

• Exceptionally high attention to detail

• Strong writing skills

• 2–4 years of experience in and around startups, especially in a marketing, communications, PR, operations, or business development role

Bonus Points if you:

• Are an active contributor to the NY venture community with extensive network across technology startups
• Have effective writing skills, including editorial experience (personal or professional content)

Compensation commensurate with experience.

Next Steps:

Please email paul@redseaventures.com using the subject title “Red Sea Ventures – Platform” and attach your resume and a brief introduction on why you're interested and a great fit.

Company Description:

Red Sea Ventures is a NY­-based early stage venture capital firm that invests in tech-­enabled startups building next­ generation experiences for consumers and workers.

Our current portfolio includes several category­defining companies such as Sweetgreen, AllBirds, Convoy, Skysafe, Outdoor Voices, and Universal Standard among others.

We are intent on doubling down on our efforts to support our portfolio companies. As former founders and operators and now as investors, we love to work for the companies we’ve partnered with to help accelerate their path to success in every way possible. Specifically, we want to build out our portfolio support program, increase brand awareness both for Red Sea Ventures and for our portfolio companies, and further galvanize the NY tech community by delivering value to this inspiring ecosystem.

Here's the latest from Red Sea Ventures View this email in your browser MARCH 2018 GV Leads $34M Funding in Athletic Apparel Start-up Outdoor Voices Using the latest round of funding, Haney said the company aims to grow its store fleet across the U.S., "so that everyone can have their local O.V." She wouldn't count out having 50 stores in the future, one in every state. By the end of 2018, Outdoor Voices plans to open five more shops. "We're focused on building the No. 1 digital active brand," founder Tyler Haney told CNBC. "This definitely requires a physical presence. ... Doing things in real life definitely works and unlocks markets online." Read the full article here. Convoy's Dan Lewis interviewed on The Twenty Minute VC Podcast Listen to Daniel Lewis, Founder & CEO at Red Sea Ventures portfolio company Convoy, share how he thinks about setting up for hypergrowth; specifically, the lessons learned and strategies on building the right investor base and board composition, raising a $62M Series B, and scaling as a CEO.  Allbirds Releases New Shoes Made From Trees Allbirds released new shoes using yet another unique, sustainable material: tree bark. "There are a lot of reasons people like these shoes beyond just how comfortable they are. They're also relatively affordable at $95 a pair — a low price they're able to maintain as a direct-to-consumer retailer — and they're easy to clean with a simple spin in the washing machine. But for some, the biggest draw is the fact that the company maintains a deep, unshakable commitment to sustainability. It's this commitment that led the brand to develop and introduce a new and even more sustainable set of shoes made from trees — or more specifically, from a textile engineered using Eucalyptus pulp." Read more from Fast Company here.  Prose Personalized Hair Care Prose is featured as a differentiated player in the personalized hair care category. "Unlike other customized hair care brands that only use a questionnaire, Prose is built around a one-on-one consultation with professional stylists for an even more personal approach to your hair care. The result? A full-dimension picture of your unique hair and scalp needs. The two-step Prose process starts with an online consultation to determine your specific hair issues. You can expect questions pertaining to your age, hair texture, hair length, and more. From there, the consultation moves into questions on how you style your hair and your general lifestyle, as well as questions on your top hair goals, preferred fragrance, whether you prefer vegan or gluten-free products, and several others."

Here's the latest from Red Sea Ventures View this email in your browser FEBRUARY 2018 Following Seed Round led by RSV, Universal Standard Raises $7M Series A from Imaginary, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Others Universal Standard — the direct-to-consumer, size-inclusive brand — has secured a $7 million round of funding led by Imaginary, the venture firm founded by Natalie Massenet and Nick Brown. The Series A round included participation from Red Sea Ventures which led the Seed round in 2015, along with a host of high-profile entrepreneurs including Goop's Gwyneth Paltrow, MatchesFashion founders Tom and Ruth Chapman, Toms founder Blake Mycoskie, SoulCycle's Elizabeth Cutler and Sweetgreen's Jonathan Neman and Nicolas Jammet. The new capital raised will be used to double-down on existing strategies — including category expansion and fabric innovation — and to grow size offerings, which is set to encompass sizes 6 to 32 in the coming year. There are also plans to amplify awareness via brand marketing, something the company has not explored before, make key executive hires and build a showroom network across the US. (Business of Fashion) Prose Will Eliminate Your Bad-Hair Days Launched in early December, New York City based beauty startup, Prose, combines automation and human expertise to produce its personalized shampoos, conditioners, and masks. During the at-home or in-person salon consultation process, the Prose app collects 85 data points that describe a client's current hair conditions, lifestyle, and environment. Prose's A.I. software then uses that data, plus 76 natural ingredients, to generate a custom formula. (Inc.) How Pop Culture Became A Part of Ample Hills Creamery's DNA Ample Hills has made quite a name for itself leveraging Pop Culture for its special brand of flavors. Founder Brian Smith comments on this: “Sort of baked into the DNA of Ample Hills from the beginning was a desire that I had to use ice cream to tell stories,” Smith says. “It’d come from creating monsters and trying to figure out how to create a new monster that somebody hadn’t seen before. I didn’t want ice cream flavors to simply be a collection of milk, cream, sugar, eggs, and other ingredients. I wanted to use ice cream flavors as a way to connect people to something that was more resonant and deeper.” A Breakout Branding Master Class from Glossier, Sweetgreen, Away, and Walker & Co Salad. Suitcases. Razors. Face wash. None of these words typically inspire enthusiasm. But when associated with certain fast-growing enterprises, the reactions can be rapturous. Sweetgreen’s Nicolas Jammet, Away’s Jen Rubio, Walker & Company’s Tristan Walker, and Glossier’s Emily Weiss talk to Fast Company‘s Amy Farley about creating products that provoke passion.

RSV Community Newsletter - November 2017

*|MC_PREVIEW_TEXT|*

Here's the latest from Red Sea Ventures View this email in your browser NOVEMBER 2017 Red Sea Ventures leads Seed investment in Prose We’re excited to announce that we recently led the Seed round in Prose, which is based in NYC and founded by former L'Oreal executives, with participation from Lerer Hippeau Ventures, Maveron and ISAI. Prose empowers hair stylists to create fresh and personalized hair care for their clients using a proprietary diagnostics app, the highest quality ingredients, made-to-order manufacturing, and direct-to-consumer delivery. We continue to be bullish about our NextGen Commerce 2.0 thesis focused on direct-to-consumer and values-based brand building, but we see Prose as an evolution into the Commerce 3.0 phase where both product and purchasing experience are improved by personalization and prescription, curation and consultation. By combining prescription from trusted experts (stylists) and personalized product, Prose is a great example of this Commerce 3.0 thesis.   Universal Standard Founders among "50 Most Daring Entrepreneurs" Entrepreneur Magazine released a list of the 50 Most Daring Entrepreneurs, naming Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk alongside Universal Standard founders Alexandra Waldman & Polina Veksler. Universal Standard was recognized for its Universal Fit Liberty program, which launched in April, and allows customers to exchange pieces within a year of purchase for a different size. This offers peace of mind to women who are concerned that their size may change. Returned clothing is laundered and donated to charity. “We’d see people in our showroom hesitate to buy that $120 dress because of the anxiety of not being sure they were going to stay that size,” Veksler says. In response to the launch of Universal Fit Liberty, says Waldman, “We get love letters — it’s incredible!” Allbirds launches Smallbirds The limited-edition Smallbirds are for ages two to four and are an exact replica of its adult Wool Runner version, meaning each pair are made with the startup’s signature eco-friendly merino wool material. For a limited time, each purchase will be accompanied by a children’s book called “Sadie Shaves the Day,” which co-founder Joey Zwillinger penned himself. Eargo Raises $45M Series C The new funding round was led by Nan Fung Life Sciences with participation from NEA, Charles and Helen Schwab, and Maveron. The new funds will be used to accelerate Eargo's industry-leading product innovation, marketing and branding initiatives in order to remain the leading direct-to-consumer hearing health brand. Eargo has developed the world's smallest, most comfortable, and rechargeable hearing aid. While over 48 million Americans currently experience hearing loss, 80% of those individuals do not purchase a hearing device. Eargo's product removes the stigma associated with hearing loss at a mass-market accessible price-point.  Convoy Scores A Win With Anheuser-Busch Alliance In addition to being selected in the Top 10 of LinkedIn's Top Companies 2017, trucking startup Convoy has landed a new multi-year partnership with Anheuser-Busch that will make it one of the top dozen or so carriers working with Anheuser-Busch, shipping about 500 million cans – or about 9,800 truckloads – of beer next year. Anheuser-Busch chose Convoy as it is "looking for ways to better align incentives with its own drivers, improve their routes and contribute to the company’s goal of reducing carbon emissions." For Convoy, the scale of the Anheuser-Busch commitment shows the potential for similar large-scale partnerships with other corporations. And perhaps more importantly, the deal gives Convoy access to a steady stream of data at massive scale.  Announcing Fabric Wills, a free online tool for will creation Fabric, the startup making life insurance easy and accessible, launched Wills, a free online tool for creating a personalized will to protect your family. Fabric Wills is designed to address the critical need for an accessible way for anyone to draft a will. Over half of US adults – some 3 in 5 – do not have a will in place, leading to potentially burdensome legal, tax, and emotional consequences for millions of American families. Fabric created Wills because it believes that these repercussions are easily avoidable with the right kind of tools. Get your Fabric Will now.
