6 Degrees Capital Internship - London

About 6DC

6 Degrees Capital ("6DC") is a London-based venture capital fund managing €250 million in assets. We invest in early-stage technology companies across Europe, with a primary focus on Enterprise, Al and Fintech. We are currently investing from our third fund (€154m).

Investment team at 6DC

6DC is looking for two talented interns to support the team in sourcing and analysing early-stage companies (Seed to Series B). You will join the investment team, contribute to investment committee discussions, and gain exposure to how we add value to portfolio companies.

The ideal candidate is passionate about start-ups, investing and technology. You have a curious and analytical mind and are keen to develop your ability to articulate views and analysis on paper and in person. You are self-motivated and eager to learn through both desk-based research and in-person networking with entrepreneurs.

Responsibilities

• Support the team across the investment process: from deal sourcing and analysis to execution and post-investment value-creation.
• Develop relationships with deal sources (VC peers, angels, ecosystem) and founders.
• Help analyse investment opportunities and contribute to due diligence on products, people, business models, unit economics and market conditions. You enjoy digging into both the financial and operational aspects of potential investments.
• Contribute to the preparation of investment cases for the investment committee, both written and verbally. You enjoy robust due diligence underpinned by first principles and common-sense thinking.
• Develop your own lens of what makes an attractive investment opportunity. Build and refine your judgment on what makes an exceptional founding team, an overlooked market shift, an underappreciated risk, etc.
• Help monitor fund investments and support founders where possible, including with fundraising, recruitment and other operational needs.
• Continuously improve, gain new skills and build a strong foundation for a career in venture investing.

What we're looking for

• A passion for technology, start-ups and investing.

• Determined to figure out how generational companies are born.
• A team-player who is analytical, humble and pragmatic, with a can-do attitude.
• You are not afraid to ask hard questions and dive deep into new ideas.
  Energetic and effective time-manager who can prioritise under pressure.
• Early evidence of interest in investing (e.g. tracking companies, writing on tech/VC, angel-adjacent or stock market activities).
• Familiarity with the European/UK tech start-up ecosystem.
• Currently studying towards or recently completed a degree. Ideally had some exposure to early-stage technology (internships, university societies, side projects).
• UK work authorisation.

We offer

• A 6-month paid internship within the investment team at our London office (based in Piccadilly).
• We operate a meritocracy; exceptional contributions are recognised and can lead to further opportunities with the firm.
• An opportunity to join an entrepreneurial team. 6DC has a strong track record and an established asset base, yet is still early enough in its journey for you to have a meaningful impact. You will be involved in all aspects of scaling a VC firm.
• Exposure to every step of the investment process, from sourcing and analysis through to investment decisions and portfolio support.
• We support remote working and encourage being out meeting founders, but also believe that regular office time is required to foster culture, process and collaboration.
• The ability to make a difference. A flat organisation and an open-minded culture that encourages and values new initiatives and ideas from everyone.
