VC Analyst @ Route 66 Ventures in Washington DC

Route 66 Ventures

Route 66 is looking for an Analyst to work across our Venture Capital and Foundry teams. Route 66’s two-year Analyst program provides individuals early in their career with a great opportunity to learn and take on significant responsibility while enjoying a casual (but high-performing) small-team atmosphere. Over the two-year program, you will work closely with senior members of the team and focus your time on fund operations, company building program and project management, market research, deal execution and portfolio management.

We’re looking for someone who is eager to learn and jump in wherever needed, has a passion for the digital health startup ecosystem, and wants to have an outsized positive impact on the future of Route 66 Ventures.

If you are interested in cracking into the Venture Capital and/or HealthTech industry, this is a great opportunity for you. Our previous analysts have all gone on to be Associates at VC funds or work at high-growth start-ups.
