The company you’ll join

We exist to make investing in the private markets as easy as Robinhood did for public stocks.

 

More and more people invest in private equity and venture capital every day. Even though this asset class has been around for decades, it wasn't built to handle this volume of investors. Signing up for Robinhood? It takes 2 minutes. Investing in a VC fund? You've got to fill out a 200-question questionnaire each time that you make an investment. The forms aren't standardized and not every question applies to every investor. Investors miss questions or answer the wrong ones and then have to redo the entire thing.

 

We built a TurboTax-style workflow for investors to only see the questions that matter to them and see every question that matters to them to make fund closing (i.e. the process of investing into a private fund) easy. Our world record document completion time is 6 minutes.

 

That may sound boring but we've processed billions of dollars for thousands of investors in just the past 6 months. And by having an investor run through our workflow, we capture their identity so we can allow them to repurpose it wherever they'd like in the future. We call this an investor passport and it's the whole reason we built this business.

 

The problems you’ll solve

  • Digging through inbound leads to understand if they’re qualified and what to do with them
  • Building outbound leads through campaigns with thoughtful, cold outreach campaigns
  • Creating gameplans to open opportunities with the world’s largest investors with Passthrough’s business development team

 

Desired qualifications

  • Proven success in lead generation
  • Desire for a career in sales
  • Clear, concise communication skills (written and verbal)
  • Ability to drive deadlines
  • Comfort with ambiguity in a fast-growing startup
  • Comfort communicating with decision makers (c-suite, partner-level, etc.)
  • Competitive and driven to achieve goals
  • At least one year of professional experience

 

Nice-to-have qualifications

  • Experience in venture capital, private equity, or the private markets is a plus

 

What to expect in the hiring process:

We go through the same interview steps for all Sales Development Representative candidates to ensure equity in our hiring process. All roles also require a background check.

 

Our process is designed to learn as much about each candidate as possible, as well as to give candidates access to our team and learn about what it's like to work at Passthrough. Topics will range from a practical case study to behavioral interviews.

 

  1. Initial screen: Have a quick 20-30 minute chat with someone on the revenue team to learn more about each other.
  2. Case study: Develop a cold outreach strategy for a prospective customer
  3. On-site interview: Behavioral-style questions: expect things like tell-me-about-a-time-when.
  4. Get a decision: We’ll get back to you within a week on what’s next.

Hybrid office & remote teams

Our team is primarily based in New York, but we're also in Philly and the rest of the world. We have an office in New York's financial district that the local team comes into three days a week. But with two of our founders in Philly and team members across the US and globe, we make sure that everyone feels like a part of Passthrough regardless of where they're based.

 

Who are we?

We were three ex-Cartans that helped scale Carta’s investor services business from Series A to Series F. Now, we’re tens of people spanning engineering, design, product, operations, revenue, and partnership serving thousands of investors and hundreds of firms. We know the problems. We know the customers. We know how to scale businesses fast in ambiguous environments. Come build with us.
