Program Manager

United Arab Emirates Foreground. Full time

Experience in Venture Capital firms, Accelerators, or Incubators is a must.

Emerge a startup factory that builds and scales multiple ventures in AI and Web3 . Unlike traditional companies, we don't focus on a single project. We operate several businesses at different stages, some in early development, some in active growth, and others already listed on top exchanges.

Our approach is execution-driven, fast-paced, and hands-on . We look for smart, analytical professionals who thrive in environments where they need to think, build, and adapt quickly . Emerge does not function like a corporate entity; it's structured to operate at the speed of opportunity .

Emerge focuses on high-growth industries, particularly AI, blockchain, and emerging digital markets . Our teams work remotely but remain highly collaborative, ensuring rapid decision-making and alignment across projects.

The Role: Program Manager

The Program Manager will take ownership of one or more ventures within Emerge, ensuring strategic execution and operational efficiency. The role requires an entrepreneurial mindset, strong problem-solving skills, and the ability to handle different aspects of a business at once.

Candidates with backgrounds in venture capital firms, accelerators, or incubators will find this role particularly relevant, as it involves financial modeling, investor relations, strategic planning, and hands-on business execution .

This role requires the ability to work across multiple functions , including:

  1. Fundraising and investment strategy
  2. Business development and partnership management
  3. Marketing, positioning, and growth strategy
  4. Operations, execution, and process optimization

If you are looking for a well-defined role where responsibilities are fixed, this is not the right fit. If you want a position where you take ownership, solve problems, and drive growth , this is an opportunity worth exploring.

Key Responsibilities
  1. Business & Investment Strategy
    • Develop and refine business models and investment strategies for assigned ventures.
    • Work with investors and funding partners to secure investment and manage capital allocation.
    • Conduct financial modeling, valuation analysis, and market research to support strategic decisions.
    • Prepare and present investment decks and fundraising proposals.
  2. Business Development & Partnerships
    • Identify and engage with potential partners, investors, and stakeholders.
    • Structure and negotiate partnerships, strategic alliances, and revenue-sharing agreements.
    • Expand venture outreach through targeted networking and business growth strategies.
  3. Marketing & Growth Strategy
    • Oversee market positioning, brand development, and user acquisition strategies.
    • Manage digital and community-building initiatives, particularly in Web3-related ventures.
    • Align product, marketing, and business goals to ensure a cohesive growth strategy.
  4. Operational Execution
    • Oversee day-to-day execution and performance tracking across assigned projects.
    • Ensure teams are aligned with business goals and key operational processes are optimized.
    • Develop and implement scalable business operations models to support growth.
  5. Multi-Functional Leadership & Adaptability
    • Take ownership of assigned projects, ensuring alignment with Emerge's strategic objectives.
    • Be flexible, adapt roles and responsibilities based on business needs and market opportunities.
    • Work across different functions, ensuring execution speed and problem-solving at every stage.
Who We Are Looking For

We are looking for professionals who:

  1. Have 3-5 years of experience preferably in venture capital firms, accelerators, or incubators.
  2. Are analytically strong, with experience in financial modeling, due diligence, and data-driven decision-making.
  3. Understand venture-building and scaling strategies, particularly in AI, blockchain, or digital markets.
  4. Have strong communication and negotiation skills, with the ability to engage investors and business partners.
  5. Can manage multiple priorities, shifting between investment strategy, business development, and operational execution as needed.
  6. Are proactive problem-solvers who can work independently and take full ownership of their work.
  7. Have an entrepreneurial mindset, able to think beyond structured roles and drive execution where needed.
