Location: Remote (India)

Experience: 35 years

Achievate is a partner-led boutique long-term advisory platform operating at the intersection of growth-stage innovation and institutional capital. We work closely with early- and growth-stage companies on fundraising and M&A mandates that require thoughtful positioning, strategic investor alignment, and disciplined transaction execution.

Our approach combines high-touch advisory with an entrepreneurial operating culture where responsibility, ownership, and learning scale alongside outcomes.

We are looking for an Associate Investor Coverage & Deal Execution to join our early team.

This is an ownership-oriented role with direct exposure to live fundraising and M&A mandates. You will play a key role in identifying and engaging investors, driving targeted investor outreach, and supporting transaction momentum across active mandates.

This is a performance-oriented role designed for professionals who value accelerated deal exposure and participation in transaction outcomes over a traditional high-fixed corporate structure.

You will gain visibility across both investor engagement and transaction execution, providing a holistic foundation for careers in capital advisory and deal-making environments.
