Berlin, Deutschland Shell Vollzeit

**The Role**:
**Where you fit in**

Shell Ventures (SV) is Shell's corporate venture capital arm with a global portfolio of more than 120 investments valued at over $700mln and a recent mandate to invest a further $1.4 bln in low-carbon opportunities by 2027. The goal of SV is to make financially attractive, minority investments in early-stage and more mature growth-stage start-ups that have developed technologies and/or business models which are relevant to Shell’s current and future businesses and customers.

SV fuels Shell’s open innovation by having portfolio companies deliver new technological and/or commercial solutions to Shell businesses to improve operational efficiency, reduce carbon footprint and/or tap new markets or customer segments. SV invests in 3 key areas: Resources & Environment, Renewable Power & Heat and Mobility. SV leads investment rounds or follows other (corporate) VCs, depending on deal dynamics.

SV plays a pivotal role as the “tip of the spear” leading Shell through the energy, mobility and digital transformations in the coming decades. We have a clear strategic mandate to support Shell’s growth and since 2019 all of our new investments have been outside Oil & Gas. The SV team consists of more than 40 professionals in the US, Europe & Asia and includes a dedicated implementation team to act as the bridge between SV, its portfolio companies and global Shell operations and businesses.

This is an exciting role for a venture investment, start up, (corporate) innovation or M&A/corporate finance professional to support the investment in relevant start-ups in the Renewable Energy, Mobility, Resources & Environment and IT/Digital arenas. This is one of the few roles within Shell where commercial staff gain the responsibility over time for the full investment process. The **Senior Investment Associate** will support (Senior) Venture Principals (and over time have own responsibility) on deal sourcing, preparing and presenting the investment case, deal execution and negotiating with counterparties towards delivery. The role may also offer the opportunity for post-investment monitoring and implementation as observer on the Board of Directors of SV portfolio companies.

**What is the role**
- Source investment opportunities through your network that have the potential to transform the energy, mobility and/or carbon markets
- Lead the commercial and competitive analysis, including detailed landscaping of the appropriate market sub-segment(s) and outlining relevant comparable companies as well as transactions
- Support the development of the investment case, including assessment of the value of the solution to Shell in close collaboration with Shell businesses and technology groups.
- Help structure and negotiate the financial and governance terms of the SV investment, including with other co-investors.
- Lead (virtual) Shell deal teams in performing the commercial and/or technical part of the due diligence, including involving representatives from Shell businesses and R&D where relevant
- Validate and help structure the implementation of appropriate cooperation opportunities (e.g. joint development agreements, technology licensing, pilot projects, JVs) that can accelerate the deployment of technologies, products or services in Shell operations, in close collaboration with SV’s implementation team.
- Be involved in the post-close management of investments (including follow-on investments and eventual sale or IPO divestment), with in some cases the opportunity to have an Observer position on the Board to help guide portfolio companies to success in the various stages of their growth.
- Leverage your internal Shell network to source opportunities, validate strategic relevance of investments, and inform technology and business innovation strategy.
- Position and represent SV as a trusted investment partner for world-class start-ups and leading VCs.
- Be a credible and compelling spokesperson for SV and Shell by being present and in some cases speak at conferences, author thought-pieces, host events, engage with media, etc.
- Contribute to regular performance reviews of portfolio companies.

**What we need from you**
- University degree in Economics, Finance, Business Administration, IT, Engineering, Physics, Chemistry or related fields.
- 10+ years of professional experience with a track record in venture capital, incubation, M&A/Corporate Finance, Business Development or start-up management in the Renewable Energy, Mobility, Environmental or IT/Digital space.
- Knowledge of all aspects of VC deal making (from due diligence to deal structuring, key terms, key elements of legal documentation and post-close deal management).
- Strong commercial acumen and experience in supporting VC deals.
- Natural curiosity, creative and critical thinker with learner mindset
- Expertise in and passionate about technology, innovation and/ or business model analysis and assessment.
- Solid understanding
