About Alonzi Ventures:

Alonzi Ventures is a premier venture studio that specializes in the co-creation of world-class B2B SaaS startups. We bring together a passionate team of founders, operators, and designers with a proven track record of scaling software solutions. Our mission is to partner with driven entrepreneurs to develop innovative companies from the ground up, guiding them through to successful exits.

What We’re Looking For:

We are on the hunt for a visionary entrepreneur ready to step into a Vice President of Sales role for our next venture. We want someone who's ready for a startup's ups and downs. You should be okay with not always knowing what's next, but ready to jump into action. You're the type who always has a new idea and wants to improve things. If you can pick the best ideas that make the biggest difference, that's a plus.

You get what it's like to start and run a business—the good and the tough parts. You're tough enough to handle it, and we'll be there to help you. Maybe you've started your own business, worked close to someone who has, or just tried out your own business projects.

You're good at understanding yourself and your surroundings, and you can think deeply about your actions. You're not shy about asking for help, you love to learn, and you're open to new ideas from others. You think clearly about why you do things and can handle feedback, changing your approach when need.

You're excited about fixing big issues, especially in important areas like the new economy, climate, social justice, and civic engagement. You believe in tackling the root problem, not just the quick fixes.

Lastly, you're a good person. You don't let pride get in the way and you always do the right thing. You work well with others, communicate clearly, and are thoughtful toward everyone—customers, teammates, and mentors. You inspire people to be their best selves.
