About us

A concentrated, ultra hands-on VC fund building world-changing companies with Europe’s best scientists and engineers.

Norrsken Launcher is an impact deep tech VC fund – part of the Norrsken ecosystem – investing in early-stage companies that can transform the future for people and the planet. We partner with world-class scientists and engineers to industrialize, commercialize, and scale groundbreaking technologies.

We’re a close-knit team of company builders and operators, bringing an entrepreneurial spirit to every project we back. With a combined track record of founding, funding, or building 15 unicorns, we’re now channeling that expertise toward solving humanity’s biggest challenges.

We invest in 2–4 companies per year and get deeply operationally involved working side-by-side with founders for 6–9 months, in a way most VCs can’t.

Our portfolio includes game-changing companies in next-generation diagnostics, stem cells, small nuclear reactors, plastic alternatives, textile recycling, hydropower, and clean air technologies.

Our team is now expanding with an Investment Analyst.

About the role

As a member of our investment team, you won’t just analyse investments. You’ll help shape the future of Norrsken Launcher.

From building financial models and presentations to evaluate investment opportunities and learning about new technologies at the forefront, your work will sit at the core of what we do. Your financial analysis skills, curiosity for data, and ability to turn complex information into clear insights will be key to our success.

You’ll report to the Investment Director but work closely with the full team and the founders of our portfolio companies. The role offers a mix of financial analysis, strategy, and hands-on work building early-stage companies that you won’t find in other VC funds, consulting, investment banking, or finance jobs.

This is a unique opportunity to join an entrepreneurial fund investing in some of the most exciting companies in Europe while making a real impact. We are a small, flat team where everyone’s contribution matters. Our first fund has performed extremely well and demonstrated that our model works. We’re now scaling Launcher while continuing to focus on delivering top-tier returns. There will be plenty of room to grow with us.

The role is a full-time based in Stockholm at the Norrsken House, with the possibility to work remotely a couple of days per week. You must have a valid work permit for the European Union and Sweden.

You’ll be part of a performance-based fund incentive scheme, have 35 days of vacation, and receive wellness and training reimbursement.

The role will start in 2026.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Support the deal team in preparing investment committee materials and conducting due diligence, including presentations and financial models.

• Research companies, industries, technologies, and business models to help the team build a deep understanding before investment decisions.

• Source and identify new investment opportunities and meet early-stage founders and companies.

• Manage and track inbound leads and deal flow.

• Support portfolio companies with pitch decks, financial models, and preparation for future fundraises.

• Get hands-on with portfolio companies on commercial strategy and go-to-market – helping solve real business challenges.

• Monitor performance of portfolio companies and help with providing regular updates and identifying growth opportunities.

• Contribute to the fund’s internal valuation processes and fund administration alongside the investment team and finance lead.

You’re the right fit if you:

• You are driven by a desire to make the world a better place and believe in the power of entrepreneurship and innovation.

• You thrive in a fast-paced environment and take extreme ownership of tasks from start to finish

• You are detail oriented and structured in your way of working

• You are confident building financial models and creating pitch decks that tell a clear story

• You are humble, open to feedback, and quick to learn from your mistakes.

• You’re curious by nature and love learning new things.

• You are ambitious and hardworking.

• You have strong communication skills in English (Swedish is not required).

• You hold a degree from a top-tier university with a BSc or MSc in business, economics, finance, or a related field.

• You have 1–3 years of work experience, preferably in investment banking, management consulting, venture capital, or private equity. Experience working in start-ups or scale-ups is also a plus.
