About Belltower Fund Group:
Belltower was formed in 2019 as AngelList’s native fund administrator and completed its journey to become an independent company at the end of 2023. Belltower provides fund administration services to the venture space. Our coverage ranges from syndicates to venture funds to first-of-their-kind rolling funds. Our full-service fund management offering abstracts away the complexity of running a fund by integrating the financial reporting, tax, compliance, portfolio management, and other services that managers typically have to cobble together from multiple vendors. Our services, combined with Angellist’s software, enable us to efficiently launch and scale a fund, allowing fund managers to focus on what they do best: investing.
Since 2019, Belltower has supported 20k+ funds representing over $16B in assets under administration, leveraging AngelList’s fund admin software to power the service layer for funds launched on the AngelList platform.
About the Role:
We are looking for a dynamic and experienced operator to help drive venture funds and compliance operations for the world’s largest portfolio of early-stage investments. This is a hybrid legal, compliance, project management, and process improvement role.
This role forms a foundational part of Belltower (AngelList’s fund operations team) and reports to the Fund Formations Manager. The team builds, manages, and executes the fund management systems and software that allow AngelList to host the world's largest portfolio of early-stage investments at scale.

Your role includes:

  • Driving the execution of fund management operations including fund formation, securities filings, signatures collection, and treasury operations.

  • 3+ years of experience in a venture-transactions, focused operations, legal, or finance role (nice to have).
  • Understanding of entity formation and VC legal structures.
  • Excellent business sense and the ability to communicate legal and compliance subject matter clearly to non-experts.
  • Exceptional organizational skills and ability to think in a systems-based way. We oversee a portfolio of investments in the thousands. It can only be managed systematically.
  • Willingness to get your hands dirty. Continual improvement means filling gaps and being hands-on in making sure all fund operations functions are executed at the highest level.
  • Great attitude and the ability to embrace regular change as we continually improve products and processes.
  • Demonstrated performance excellence: we’re looking for the best of the best!
If you don’t tick every box above, we’d still encourage you to apply. We’re building a diverse team whose skills balance and complement one another.
