About Outlier Ventures

Outlier Ventures is the leading web3 accelerator globally. Founded in 2014, it works with startups at various stages of their lifecycle from pre-seed / seed (via Base Camp our accelerator program) to later stages about to launch (or live) token networks. We specialise in the New Data Economy, Infrastructure, DeFi, and the Open Metaverse, bringing together a network of thousands of the world’s leading web3 founders, protocols, and VCs to mentor and invest in startups.

In light of the new strategic focus on the Middle East region, Outlier Ventures will be launching a new in-person accelerator in Riyadh and we are looking for a Program Associate.

This is a very exciting role that requires a mix of entrepreneurial mindset, operational & project management skills, knowledge of web3 and passion for supporting founders’ growth.

While the role is based in Riyadh, the Program Associate will work closely with the team on the ground as well as the rest of the global accelerator team and with all the Outlier Ventures web3 experts.

Key responsibilities

In this role, you will work alongside startups and Outlier Ventures teams to deliver success across the year for up to four cohorts of web3 startups. Responsibilities include:

  • Conducting market research, including crypto elements like token design
  • Developing startup business strategies
  • Crafting fundraising strategies and core materials for pre-seed/seed and pre-sale level startups
  • Building and mapping networks
  • Enabling the cohort to excel and grow
  • Supporting the operations of the cohort

This role provides a comprehensive view of early-stage crypto ventures, where you will work with teams through the accelerator and onto their fundraising events, whether equity or a token.

This position is well suited to those looking to jump start their transition into startups, venture or crypto. You’ll get exposure to a broad range of founders, innovations and partners - as well as seeing under the hood of Outlier Ventures.

We are looking for someone who

  • Takes initiative and produce results
  • Value learning about new ideas, concepts, and business models
  • Collaborate effectively with a talented team
  • Possess excellent interpersonal skills
  • Suggest and carry out practical actions to address issues
  • Be hard-working with a positive attitude
  • Be organised
  • Understand the fundamentals of decentralised technology and web3, with a strong interest in growing your expertise in the subject
  • Communicate and collaborate effectively
  • Be fluent in Arabic to communicate with local partners and vendors

What we offer:

  • Competitive salary and benefits package
  • Opportunity to invest directly in projects
  • Discretionary bonus scheme
  • Opportunity to work in an exciting, rapidly developing industry
  • Join an early stage company and experience the entrepreneurial journey
  • Apply your skills to make a genuine difference in the world
  • Be a part of shaping the next era of the web

If you’re ready to make an impact and contribute to the future of web3 in the Middle East, apply now to join our team!
