About Aegis Venture Funds

Aegis ‌Ventures is a NYC-based venture studio that partners with entrepreneurs and health systems to launch and scale meaningful healthtech startups that drive healthcare forward.

About the role

As the Chief of Staff at Aegis Ventures, you will work directly with John Beadle, Aegis’s Co-Founder and Managing Partner, as his closest day-to-day partner and a key member of the Aegis leadership team. The job is ultimately to become a true extension of John and make him and Aegis more effective. That will require staying close enough to John’s day-to-day work to absorb context, anticipate what needs to happen, communicate in his voice, and make sure important priorities keep moving.

What they're looking for

  • Typically 3–7 years of professional experience, although demonstrated capability, judgment, and rate of growth matter far more than tenure
  • Exceptionally smart, ambitious, and intellectually curious. Learns quickly, sets a very high bar for their own work, and wants to take on more responsibility as quickly as they can earn it
  • Exceptional judgment and the ability to get quickly to the crux of an unfamiliar issue, distinguish signal from noise, form an independent view with incomplete information, and anticipate downstream implications
  • An exceptional writer and communicator who can turn complex or unfinished thinking into clear, concise, and persuasive communications and learn to draft naturally in John’s voice
  • Excellent interpersonal instincts and the confidence and discretion to earn trust and engage credibly with founders, investors, board members, senior executives, and teammates at every level
  • A genuine interest in artificial intelligence, healthcare, investing, and company creation, as well as comfort using the latest AI tools to make the work faster and better. Prior healthcare experience is not required
