About ElevenLabs
ElevenLabs is an AI research and product company transforming how we interact with technology.
We launched in January 2023 with the first human-like AI voice model. Today, we serve millions of users and thousands of businesses - from fast-growing startups to large enterprises like Deutsche Telekom and Meta. Our investors are some of the world's most prominent, including Andreessen Horowitz, ICONIQ Growth and Sequoia. We've raised $781M in funding and our last valuation was $22B - multiples of 11, always.
We have expanded from voice into three main platforms:
ElevenAgents enables businesses to deliver seamless and intelligent customer experiences, with the integrations, testing, monitoring, and reliability necessary to deploy voice and chat agents at scale.
ElevenCreative empowers creators and marketers to generate and edit speech, music, image, and video across 70+ languages.
ElevenAPI gives developers access to our leading AI audio foundational models.
Everything we do is the result of the creativity and commitment of our team - builders doing the best work of their lives. We are researchers, engineers, and operators. IOI medalists and ex-founders. If you want to work hard and create lasting positive impact, we want to hear from you.
How we work
High-velocity: Rapid experimentation, lean autonomous teams, and minimal bureaucracy.
Impact not job titles: We don’t have job titles. Instead, it’s about the impact you have. No task is above or beneath you.
AI first: We use AI to move faster with higher-quality results. We do this across the whole company—from engineering to growth to operations.
Excellence everywhere: Everything we do should match the quality of our AI models.
Global team: We prioritize your talent, not your location.
What we offer
Innovative culture: You’ll be part of a generational opportunity to define the trajectory of AI, surrounded by a team pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.
Growth paths: Joining ElevenLabs means joining a dynamic team with countless opportunities to drive impact - beyond your immediate role and responsibilities.
Learning & development: ElevenLabs proactively supports professional development through an annual discretionary stipend.
Social travel: We also provide an annual discretionary stipend to meet up with colleagues each year, however you choose.
Annual team offsite: Each year, we bring your entire team together in a new location - past offsites have included Croatia, Italy and Cancún
Co-working: If you’re not located near one of our main hubs, we offer a monthly co-working stipend.
About the Role
ElevenLabs is building its first private equity and growth investor partner channel, and you’ll be the first person to own it. You’ll embed ElevenLabs in funds’ value-creation programs and drive AI adoption across their portfolio companies, so we sell portfolio-wide through the sponsor instead of one company at a time.
You’ll work with Operating Partners, Value Creation teams and portfolio executives on the fund side, and with our Sales, Solutions Engineering and Customer Success teams internally. You’ll report to the Global Head of BD & Partnerships and own the pipeline and ARR sourced through PE partnerships.

Work with AEs, FDEs, Customer Success and Product to take portfolio deployments from introduction to production
Own PE-sourced pipeline and ARR, and expand single deployments into portfolio-wide programs
Build repeatable playbooks and represent ElevenLabs at PE conferences and operating-partner forums
Requirements
Experience inside a PE or growth-equity firm as an investor or operator (investing, value creation or portfolio operations)
Go-to-market or partnerships experience at a technology company after that fund-side work
6+ years of experience across private equity and enterprise AI, cloud or software
Strong relationships with Operating Partners and Value Creation teams
A track record of turning PE relationships into measurable pipeline and revenue
Executive presence with Managing Partners, Operating Partners and portfolio CEOs
Comfortable carrying a number and building a motion from zero
Bonus
Built a PE or growth-investor partner program at a high-growth or large tech company
Experience selling AI or automation into support, contact center or sales use cases
