Om tjänsten

Industrifonden is Sweden's venture capital fund. As an independent foundation, our mission is to make our society stronger by

investing in innovative Nordic companies led by exceptional teams. In life science, we invest primarily in therapeutics,

healthtech and enabling technologies.

Our ambition is simple: to enable more world-class Nordic science to reach patients.

THE ROLE

Industrifonden is looking for a scientifically deep, commercially experienced and exceptionally driven investment professional to

join our Life Science Team. The role is full-time and based in our Stockholm office at least three days a week.

We invest in innovative early-stage life science companies, typically at seed and Series A, with initial tickets of €1–5M and

significant reserves for follow-ons. The scope of the role will be calibrated to experience; senior candidates are expected to

lead investments and work closely with boards, CEOs and co-investors as a trusted partner.

As an Investment Professional, you will:

  • Build and maintain a strong network across the Nordic research, startup and investor communities, and represent Industrifonden

externally

Support and develop portfolio companies, including serving as a board member or observer
Source, evaluate and lead investments from first meeting through investment committee and closing
Lead, conduct or support due diligence
Share knowledge with and learn from the rest of the team
Help shape how Industrifonden invests, including our processes and ways of working

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

A strong scientific foundation in life science, with a PhD, MD or equivalent scientific training in a relevant field
  • 8+ years of relevant experience in life science investing, R&D, business/corporate development or operational leadership

(academic research experience alone is not sufficient)

  • A track record of leadership and of successfully driving things forward: specific programmes, deals, companies or teams where

the outcome depended on you

Analytical rigour and the judgement to know when to go deep and when to move fast
Curiosity across therapeutics, healthtech and enabling technologies, with significant experience in at least one of these areas
Experience of working in tight-knit, collaborative, high-performing teams
Fluency in English

It is also a strong advantage if you have:

Life science venture capital experience
Hands-on drug development and/or business development experience in industry (biotech or pharma)
Entrepreneurial experience
Board or advisory experience with early-stage life science companies
Fluency in Swedish or another Scandinavian language

WHY INDUSTRIFONDEN

For more than four decades, Industrifonden has backed Nordic founders turning scientific breakthroughs into companies with global

impact.

  • Patient capital. No fund cycle and no fundraising. We back companies for as long as the science requires, and we spend our time

on them, not on raising the next fund.

  • Breadth. Therapeutics, healthtech and enabling technologies, plus colleagues in Software, Growth and Deep Tech & Planetary

Health to draw on when a company spans several fields.

  • Influence. The platform of an established investor with the agility of a focused team, where every team member shapes how we

invest.

If you want to help more Nordic science reach patients, we want to hear from you.
