Head of Distribution

**Who we are**

We’re OIF Ventures, a Sydney-based venture capital firm investing in Australia’s most ambitious founders from Seed to Growth stage. Our portfolio includes some of the country's most exciting startups, and we take a hands-on approach to supporting founders - from hiring and product strategy, go-to-market, fundraising and beyond.

What makes us different? We're small by design, high-conviction in our investments, and deeply embedded in the startup ecosystem. We work shoulder-to-shoulder with founders and partner closely with our LPs - most of whom have followed on with us across every fund.

Now, we’re looking for someone to scale our capital engine.

**The difference you’ll make**

This is a senior, high-impact role that sits at the heart of how we grow and engage our investor community.

As Head of Distribution & Investor Relations, you’ll drive the strategy and execution of how we raise, engage, and grow our investor base. Working closely with our partners, you’ll help us raise $100-150M+ per year across core funds & SPVs (in Australia and offshore), expand into new channels like wealth platforms and private banks, as well as deepen relationships with our 200+ LPs.

Just as importantly, you’ll bring scale to how we deliver value to our investors - crafting communications, events, and experiences that match the calibre of our investors, our portfolio and track record.

If you’re commercially minded, passionate about venture and the craft of capital raising, and ready to help fuel the next generation of iconic startups and scale-ups in Australia - this is your moment to shape something bold inside one of Australia’s most respected venture capital firms.

- ** Share the OIF story**:Craft and deliver compelling investor pitches and fund narratives that cut through - underpinned by strong performance metrics
- ** Own comms & reporting**: Collaborate with our investment, finance & legal teams to ensure timely, clear, and high-quality communication and materials for current and prospective LPs
- ** Support strategic growth**: Partner with the broader team on capital planning and market expansion as the function scales

**What we’re looking for**
- 5-10+ years of experience in capital raising, private wealth, fund distribution, and/or investment sales (VC, PE, or private funds)

- Deep understanding of the investor mindset and what drives LP decision-making

- Highly organised, proactive, and able to manage multiple investor conversations at once
- Good understanding of fund operations, investor due diligence process, and investor servicing workflows from pitch through to close

- Familiarity with Fund and SPV structuring and experience working alongside internal teams on fund documentation
- Background in finance, commerce, or economics (or equivalent real-world experience)
