Join the Team & Experience an Entirely New Career in Venture Finance
What We Seek
We are currently seeking ambitious and driven individuals to join a growing team in Africa. If you understand firm dynamics, know how to develop and read financial statements, can build business and financial models, conduct a valuation and pull together a deck worth reading, please apply. We are also seeking those who know business well (the entire value chain internally), know how to manage stakeholders, and also know the global environment when it comes to early-stage. If this is you, we are interested in sparking a conversation.

Fellowship Program
Hands On
Side B believes that developing local talent is important to the development of our industry and as such we have endeavoured to implement a Fellowship Program designed to offer a student an immersive experience of what it means to work in the fields of emerging market corporate and investment finance. This includes areas of project management, valuations, financial statement analysis, structuring transactions, accounting, business communications / presentations, business writing, coaching and mentoring firms with technical assistance, understanding the mechanics of governance, and inner workings of the firm – among many other areas underlying the world of emerging market corporate and investment finance.
Global
Fellows will exit the program with a unique international work experience in an emerging market which can translate to opportunities for future positions in investment finance, impact investing, and related fields locally and globally. A culturally immersive experience will provide a life-changing opportunity to develop new perspectives and create life-long memories for fellows. Consideration for a full-time position at Side B depends on performance. Side B will also provide recommendation letters and industry connections for fellows not considered for a full time position.
Leaders
We believe that to more fully enjoy the learning experience and be a well rounded business leader, a direct experience combined with a professional field of study is imperative. Although an important part of academics, there is more to learning than just books; we believe that the soft skills and exposure to high pressure environments can further grow a fellows abilities and open them up to opportunities they would have never seen before. Leadership, for us, is not defined conventionally. Therefore, Fellows will shadow the Managing Partner for a 2-week period to learn the ins and outs of running a business.
