Fundraising & Investor Outreach Specialist - HealthTech Pre-Seed Raise

Posted 4 days ago

Worldwide

Summary

We are the founders of an early-stage UK HealthTech venture preparing to raise pre-seed investment. We are looking for an experienced fundraising professional to work directly with the founders on investor sourcing, outreach and qualified introductions. This is not a general lead-generation assignment. We are specifically looking for someone who understands early-stage fundraising and can demonstrate experience building relationships with relevant investors. Scope You would support us with: * Developing and refining the investor outreach strategy. * Identifying and qualifying relevant investors internationally. * Building a targeted investor pipeline across angels, angel syndicates, family offices, micro-VCs, HealthTech/MedTech investors and appropriate strategic investors. * Identifying warm introduction opportunities through your existing network where possible. * Conducting thoughtful, personalised investor outreach. * Generating qualified investor conversations and meetings. * Managing follow-ups and maintaining visibility of the fundraising pipeline. The founders will lead investor meetings, investment discussions, negotiations and closing. Who we’re looking for We are particularly interested in professionals who have: * Previous experience supporting successful pre-seed or seed raises. * HealthTech, MedTech, digital health or related investment experience. * Existing relationships within the angel/VC/family-office ecosystem and/or a strong track record of originating investor relationships. * Evidence of previous fundraising campaigns and results. * Strong investor communication and outreach capabilities. * A structured approach to investor qualification and pipeline management. We are not looking to purchase investor databases or run high-volume generic email campaigns. Engagement model We prefer a performance-aligned relationship, with the majority of compensation linked to successful fundraising outcomes. We are open to a modest initial/setup fee or clearly defined early milestone, combined with an agreed success fee on capital raised from investors attributable to your work. We are deliberately looking for an incentive-aligned fundraising partner rather than engaging a traditional consultancy on a substantial upfront retainer. If you have a different structure that has worked successfully for previous early-stage raises, we are happy to consider it. When applying Please provide specific examples of fundraising engagements you have previously worked on, your role, approximate raise size and results. We value evidence and relevant experience over generic fundraising proposals. Further information about the company and investment opportunity can be shared confidentially with shortlisted candidates.
