Do you have a passion for sourcing investments and making a difference for growth companies?
Do you want to assist an extraordinary team of talented, motivated, driven individuals who all share a deep passion for entrepreneurship? If so, you may be our new Venture Scout. Please note, this is not a full time role, but we will provide remuneration based on success criteria.
Introduction
The CVX Venture Scout Programme is building a network of highly talented VC scouts, to assist us in sourcing attractive investment opportunities, in their specialist fields. You will learn and develop some of the most important skills required to be in VC, and meet with some of the most interesting and entrepreneurial founders in your market, and help shape the future.
As part of your role as a CVX Venture Scout, the Investment Team will look to you to identify exciting startups, speak with them and conduct research on them, including their teams, markets, and competition. Based on your findings, you will write a 1-2 page proposal memo summarising your investment thesis, and may be asked to present it in-person or online to the CVX Investment Team.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Expectations
We aim to use our Venture Scout Programme not only to discover exceptional investment opportunities but also to gain a deeper understanding of you and your vision. If you are interested in joining the CVX Investment Team, this is an excellent first step towards not only gaining an introduction to the VC ecosystem and learning essential VC skills, but also demonstrating how you think about investments, analyse them, and present your insights to us. As we grow our Investment Team, the Venture Scout Programme will be the first pool of resource we look to hire from.
Compensation
We want to remunerate good work and give credit to your role in the investment process, where successful. We will therefore compensate you when a deal that you take forward to the investment team receives funding from our network of investors, with an opportunity for you to benefit from the upside too.
