Arthur Vachelard
@arthurvachelard
Senior venture capital analyst driving startup sourcing, diligence, and portfolio growth.
What I'm looking for
I am a Senior Venture Capital Analyst with multi-year experience sourcing, structuring, and supporting early-stage investments across consumer goods, deeptech, and software. I progressed internally from intern to senior analyst while executing direct investments and participating in fund-of-funds operations.
I have led financial, legal, and operational due diligence for 17 equity investments and built valuation models and partnership agreements for tickets typically between €200K–€300K. I regularly present opportunities to investment committees and leverage an industry-wide network to source 500+ opportunities annually.
As an active portfolio contributor, I serve on strategic committees and drive value creation — one portfolio company scaled from €200K to €10M revenue in 24 months and is preparing for an LBO exit. I also have exposure to wealth management from an earlier internship supporting high-net-worth clients.
Outside finance, I bring discipline and endurance from competitive sports and ultra-trail running, and I apply those traits to cross-functional collaboration, operational improvements, and long-term strategic thinking for portfolio companies.
