What is an unusual job?

An Unusual job is a role that falls outside traditional career paths, often involving unique or unexpected responsibilities. These jobs can range from niche specializations to entirely unconventional professions, such as professional cuddlers, water slide testers, or ethical hackers. They may require specialized skills, creative thinking, or a willingness to embrace non-traditional work environments. Many people pursue unusual jobs for the excitement, creativity, or flexibility they offer.

What are some common challenges faced by professionals in unusual or unconventional roles, and how can they overcome them?

Professionals in unusual or unconventional roles often face challenges such as limited clarity around job expectations, a lack of established career paths, and the need to regularly advocate for the value of their work. To overcome these challenges, it's helpful to proactively communicate your contributions to leadership, seek out mentors or peer groups in similar fields, and remain adaptable as the role evolves. Embracing flexibility and building a strong professional network can also help you navigate ambiguity and uncover new growth opportunities.

Operating Partner - Founder Services & Platform

Unusual Ventures

San Francisco, CA • On-site

Full-time

Re-posted 28 days ago

Job description

Unusual Ventures

Unusual Ventures is an early-stage venture capital firm focused on working with the very best enterprise software founders. We are looking for an Operating Partner to lead our Founder Services and Platform teams.

We want a builder - and, just as importantly, a manager and a coordinator: someone who will own the details, run the team, and make sure our support reaches founders on time and at quality.

The Role

This is a builder's role with a Partner's scope and ownership. You will be one of Unusual's Operating Partners, on equal footing with our CFO and Operating Partner.

You will work closely with John Vrionis to organize and direct the resources of our Founder Services and Platform teams, and you will own the day-to-day - leading the people, setting priorities, and making sure our support reaches founders when and where they need it.

You will care deeply about helping founders, whatever the need. Some days that is a critical executive hire. Others it is sharpening go-to-market, opening a door to a customer, landing a piece of coverage, or getting a founder in the right room. You will meet each company where it is, at whatever stage, and marshal the firm's resources to move it forward.
Who You Are

  • A proven operator with a track record of success in enterprise software startups - as a Founder CEO or COO. (please do not apply if you do not have this experience).

  • You have built and scaled companies, and you know the difference between traction and noise.

  • You have built go-to-market and recruiting motions from the ground up, and you can coach founders on both with credibility.

  • You get real joy from helping founders succeed, and you have the standing to challenge them and be heard.

  • You are a strong leader of teams who can own execution and raise the performance of the people around you.

  • You have high standards and high empathy, and you bring calm, structured thinking to messy problems.

  • You care deeply about truth, clarity, and long-term company building.

  • You are values-driven. You care about integrity, substance, and doing the right thing.

What You'll Do

  • Own the day-to-day. Lead the Founder Services and Platform teams day-to-day - the people, the priorities, and the standards.

  • Organize the resources. Direct our talent, go-to-market, marketing, events, content, and customer-introduction resources so they reach the founders who need them most.

  • Help founders win. Meet founders at any stage - pre-seed through Series B - and help on whatever front matters: recruiting, go-to-market, customers, narrative, or coverage.

  • Build the playbook. Partner with John to shape how Unusual supports founders, and turn that into repeatable programs the team can deliver at quality.

  • Set the standard. Raise the bar for what "value-add" actually means in venture - and make it real, not theater.

Location & Compensation
Why This Seat

This is a chance to shape how venture support should work for the next decade. If you have built before - and now want to help others build better - this is the most meaningful seat you will find.
