Co-Founder In Residence, Methane Removal from Air
4 weeks ago
We're on the lookout for entrepreneurial individuals with technical and commercial domain expertise with keen interest in founding and building a global scale, impact-driven, high growth company from the ground up (full-time).
The role is full-time and fully remote until venture incorporation and spin-out (circa spring/summer 2025).
Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas, with around 80 x the warming potential of carbon dioxide over a 20-year timescale. To date, key technical and commercial constraints have limited progress towards this target: atmospheric concentrations of methane are extremely low (2 ppm), methane emissions plumes (while higher in concentration) are distributed over disparate sources, and current measurement capabilities are often insufficient to verify offsetting activities.
PhD or equivalent industry R&D know-how focused on: inorganic/physical chemistry; environmental, chemical or mechanical engineering; Previously led or managed commercial delivery of an innovative biotech, engineering, industrial, or hardware technology venture with broad understanding of technical product development and R&D commercialization;
Industry-specific know-how and commercial knowledge (e.g. forming strategic partnerships, industrial value chains, procurement, etc.) Experience in startup ecosystems and fundraising (via venture capital, private equity, grants or funds);
Strong entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to translate scientific discoveries into commercial opportunities, ideally with experience conducting techno-economic analyses and market assessments;
Experience of working in a leadership role, applying project management and collaborative skills with colleagues across different teams.
Access to optimised, purpose-built, proprietary tools, resources, and processes to help create high-impact ventures from scratch;
Opportunity area-specific know-how from our network of Partners and Advisors;
Up to £250k in investment to incorporate the new venture and develop early proof-of-concept data;
Continuous post-spinout support, including fundraising, commercial partnerships, recruitment, and team-building;
Deep Science Ventures is creating a future in which both humans and the planet can thrive.
We use our unique venture creation process to create, spin-out and invest into science companies, combining available scientific knowledge and founder-type scientists into high-impact ventures.
We operate in 4 sectors: Pharmaceuticals, Climate, Agriculture and Computation, tackling the challenges defining those areas by taking a first principles approach and partnering with leading institutions.
This opportunity is funded by the Grantham Foundation, a 501(c)(3) private foundation whose mission is to protect and conserve the natural environment. The Grantham Foundation communicates the risks of climate change and environmental degradation, builds collaboration and alliances between like-minded groups and individuals, and invests in philanthropic and entrepreneurial missions to create new climate solutions.
