Project Manager – Investment & Operations

About Us

At Gi21 – Great Ideas for 21st Century, we move great ideas forward.

We focus on VC and late-stage investments, particularly in tech and IT companies across the EU and the US, including SaaS, cloud, and AI infrastructure.

We provide our portfolio companies — including VSHosting, Taikun, Boost.space, and Zerops — with more than just capital. We deliver deep strategic and operational support.

To continue successfully developing and scaling our projects, we are looking for a strong addition to our team.

About the Role

We are looking for a highly capable Project Manager to play a key role in executing our investment strategies and strategic initiatives.

You will work closely with our investment team, including partners, and with the founders of our portfolio companies. The role combines both commercial and operational responsibilities.

You will independently manage specific projects from the initial preparation phase through to successful delivery and integration.

What You Will Do

• Investment Project Management
  Provide proactive project support during key transactional processes, including coordinating due diligence and preparing materials for acquisitions, refinancing, and exits.
• Operational Execution
  Lead and drive specific operational tasks across the Gi21 portfolio and internal initiatives, such as launching in new markets, optimizing processes in newly invested companies, and implementing tech tools.
• Cross-Team Collaboration
  Act as the primary bridge between the Gi21 investment and finance team, portfolio company management, and external partners, including auditors, lawyers, and consultants.
• Tracking & Reporting
  Own project milestones, timelines, and budgets. Prepare clear, structured reporting for stakeholders and fund partners.
• Problem-Solving & Optimization
  Proactively identify bottlenecks and potential risks within projects, and propose effective, scalable solutions.

What We Expect From You

• Proven experience as a Project Manager. Background in VC, private equity, management consulting, M&A, or a dynamic tech startup or scaleup is a significant advantage.
• The ability to seamlessly switch between high-level strategic thinking and hands-on operational execution.
• Strong analytical and organizational skills, with the agility to quickly understand new industries and business models.
• Excellent communication and negotiation skills.
• Autonomy, common sense, strong drive, and the ability to get things done with minimal supervision.
• Fluent English, required for daily communication and formal reporting.

What We Offer

• The opportunity to be directly involved in scaling some of the most exciting tech projects with global reach.
• Close collaboration with top market professionals, visionary founders, and fund partners.
• A high degree of autonomy and genuine space for your own ideas.
• A flexible, dynamic work environment in modern offices in Prague or London.
