About the role

P3A is a multi-platform operating and investment group building the infrastructure of tomorrow. Entrepreneurial at its core, P3A builds, owns, and backs the companies behind the assets the modern world depends on, bringing long-term capital and deep operational expertise to how critical infrastructure is built, operated, and financed. P3A was founded by serial entrepreneur Jannes Fischer in 2023.

Your Role

As Chief of Staff (m/w/d), you will be the right-hand and sparring partner of our founder Jannes Fischer and the person who holds the P3A group together internally. Your mission is to drive the build-out of the platform across its verticals, from the venture fund to company building to the group’s own asset base.

You will validate and launch new companies alongside Jannes, develop and execute investment strategies across asset classes, run the venture fund end-to-end, and orchestrate the tax advisors, lawyers, investors, and service providers around the group.

This is an entrepreneurial role with exceptional freedom and full ownership. It is built for a generalist with an investor’s mindset who is as comfortable in a cap table or shareholder agreement as in the operational day-to-day, thinks in structures, and executes hands-on without a team behind them.
