What we believe in
At Wright Partners, we are united in our belief that entrepreneurs with access to the right resources have a much higher chance of building a successful startup. And that is what we focus on. We support our venture team in launching and scaling innovative companies while leveraging the assets and networks of our corporate partners.
If you share this belief, and want to live up to it, we want to speak with you! We are currently looking for an exceptional Venture Architect in Singapore.
What you sign up for
As a Venture Architect, you will support the development and scale-up of a start-up from inception to exit. You will be involved in the process right from ideation of the venture and will work closely with the venture co-founder and other subject matter experts to identify & validate new venture opportunities. You will work collaboratively to understand the customers’ problem statements; analyze the value chain, cost structure and profit pools of the market; develop a business model that delivers outsized value to the customers; define product requirements, develop prototypes and work through agile product iteration; create and deliver a go-to-market plan; contribute positively and the venture’s culture; and ultimately scale the venture. You will produce deliverables for each phase of venture building using our unique venture building methodology.
You will bring your unique perspective to the venture, both at a strategic level, as well as on the ground. You will have the opportunity to engage with our corporate partners and build strong working relationships.
How do we support you?
From the initial spark, we will do everything within our capacity to help you achieve initial product-market fit and secure Series A funding. We will work closely with the corporate partner to secure seed funding, and to confer upon you an unfair advantage by bringing their considerable assets and business networks to bear. Our partners will fight in the trenches with you, actively assisting you in finding the right business model, creating the right product and building a scalable venture. We will bring in our deep networks of industry and technology subject matter experts, who will extend their helping hand as and when you need it. We will support you in recruiting your team members who are as passionate and driven as you. We will be there for you every step of the way.
What do we expect from you?
You are based in Singapore, with a good understanding of the economic and sector specific with some emphasis on sustainability. You have >5 years work experience, with minimum 2 as a product manager, new business unit leader or consultant. A combination of previous entrepreneurial experience as a founder and corporate experience would be ideal.
You bring knowledge and hands-on experience in the tech-enabled value space. We welcome perspectives from a variety of industry-backgrounds (anything from ecommerce, technology, retail, real estate, education, farming, financial services and more).
An entrepreneurial environment brings the best out of you. You are comfortable with ambiguity and are able to adapt to a fast-paced and rapidly-changing environment while not losing sight of your goals. Failure only strengthens your drive to succeed. Above all, you are humble, open to feedback and always willing to ask for help.
You are willing to go the extra mile (or two), ready to learn by getting your hands dirty in fields that you previously knew nothing about. You are both analytical and resourceful, able to break down big problems into smaller ones and come up with creative solutions to overcome them.
What do we offer you?
We offer you an accelerated path to becoming an entrepreneur yourself. You will find a challenge which comes with ambiguity and risks, yet is equally rewarding, educational and exhilarating. We provide attractive compensation in the form of monthly salary and equity in the venture.
We believe in meritocracy and reward hard work. We are not hierarchical and expect every employee to be able to speak their mind. We believe in working with the person best suited to the role, irrespective of gender, colour or geography.
