TELUS Global Ventures (TGV) is the strategic venture investment arm of TELUS, partnering with category-leading technology companies that align with TELUS’ long-term strategic priorities across digital experiences, AI, enterprise technology, health, agriculture, sustainability, and connected industries. As we continue scaling toward becoming one of the world’s leading corporate venture capital platforms, we are seeking an experienced and highly strategic Investment Director & Chief Operating Officer to help shape the future operating model of a modern, AI-enabled global CVC platform focused on both investment performance and strategic value creation across the TELUS ecosystem.

What You’ll Do

Strategic Leadership & Platform Development

  • Serve as a key strategic partner to the Managing Partner across operational, portfolio, and organizational priorities.
  • Help scale TELUS Global Ventures into a globally recognized, institutionally rigorous venture platform.
  • Contribute to long-term platform strategy, operating model evolution, and organizational effectiveness.
  • Lead cross-functional initiatives that improve scalability, execution quality, and decision‑making across the platform.

Portfolio Management & Governance

  • Oversee portfolio governance, valuation processes, portfolio analytics, reporting, and investment committee operations.
  • Drive institutional‑quality portfolio management practices, including KPI tracking, performance reviews, risk management, and reporting frameworks.
  • Support portfolio company engagement through strategic guidance, governance participation, and value creation initiatives.
  • Serve as a board director, observer, or strategic advisor where appropriate based on portfolio needs and individual expertise.

Operations & AI‑Enabled Execution

  • Lead operational excellence initiatives across systems, workflows, knowledge management, and reporting infrastructure.
  • Identify and implement AI‑enabled tools and automation opportunities to modernize venture operations and improve team productivity.
  • Build scalable operating processes that support continued growth across investment activity and portfolio complexity.
  • Partner closely with finance, legal, strategy, and TELUS business units to optimize operational execution.

Ecosystem & Stakeholder Engagement

  • Act as an ambassador for TELUS Global Ventures with founders, co‑investors, ecosystem partners, and senior TELUS leadership.
  • Help shape and communicate TGV’s market positioning, strategic narrative, and value proposition.
  • Strengthen relationships across the venture ecosystem and contribute to thought leadership initiatives.

What You Bring

  • 10+ years of experience across venture capital, corporate venture capital, growth equity, strategic finance, investment banking, private equity, portfolio operations, or related fields.
  • Strong finance and analytical foundation with experience in valuation, portfolio management, governance, reporting, and investment processes.
  • Experience operating as a senior cross‑functional leader within a high‑growth or complex organizational environment.
  • Proven ability to build scalable systems, processes, and operational infrastructure.
  • Strong executive presence with exceptional communication and stakeholder management capabilities.
  • Demonstrated ability to influence across executive teams, founders, investors, and cross‑functional partners.
  • Deep interest in AI‑enabled operations, workflow modernization, and data‑driven decision‑making.
  • Experience supporting portfolio companies through governance, strategic planning, or operational engagement is strongly preferred.
  • Board, observer, or governance experience is an asset.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset with strong judgment, adaptability, and execution orientation.
