ABOUT FIVE ELMS

Five Elms Capital is a growth investor in B2B software platforms providing capital and resources to help software founders accelerate growth and strengthen their position as industry leaders.

Founded in 2007 we have over $3 billion in assets under management more than 80 investments globally and are currently investing out of our $1.1 billion sixth fund.

Headquartered in Kansas City our 75 person team operates with a collaborative entrepreneurial culture. Team members have direct exposure to firm and portfolio leadership and are encouraged to make an impact from day one.

YOU WILL HAVE A BROAD SET OF RESPONSIBILITIES

In this role you will be at the heart of everything serving as an essential partner. As a highly organized endlessly resourceful person you will ensure that nothing falls through the cracks. Many days are fast paced so keeping things running smoothly is key; the cost of any mistakes is high. Your role will vary day-to-day: ambiguity changes in priorities and managing the needs of multiple senior leaders will be exciting to you.

You will support multiple members of our Value Creation team in a broad set of responsibilities:

• Schedules are overloaded; theres a lot to do and not a lot of time to do it. You will need to make sure it all works seamlessly.

• Organize calendars and schedules to accommodate back-to-back meetings across different time zones.

• Coordinate domestic and international travel and make sure all aspects of trips work seamlessly from start to finish.

• Our team travels often requiring occasional personal assistant support to keep work life running smoothly.

• Track and submit expense reports across multiple accounts including international statements.

• Navigate a wide range of personalities to maintain alignment engagement and a positive working dynamic.

• While we cant possibly cover everything your role will encompass making our team and clients as productive and as happy as possible!

You are detail-oriented. There are hundreds of details to keep track of and you are always on top of it.

You are resourceful. You thrive on being told something isnt possible and then figuring out how to get it done.
