This is the operational and ecosystem heart of Boson Collider. You will own everything from cohort recruitment and curriculum delivery to founder experience and strategic partner relationships — while serving as Boson Ventures' primary interface with the broader Victorian and Australian deep tech ecosystem.
This is not just a coordinator role. You will set the rhythm of the program, represent Boson externally, and build the relationships — with universities, accelerators, corporates, mentors, and founders — that make both Boson Collider and Boson Ventures a destination for the best deep tech talent in Australia.
1. Boson Collider Program Delivery
- Own end-to-end delivery of two cohorts: recruitment, selection, 12-week curriculum, Collider Sessions, technical residencies, Demo Days, and LaunchVic milestone reporting
- Manage the full founder experience from application through to 12-month alumni support
- Drive the Asia Landing Pad for qualifying teams, leveraging Boson's Greater Bay Area and Yangtze River Delta networks
- Build Boson Collider toward self-sustainability by Cohort 3
2. Partner & Ecosystem Relationships
- Own and develop relationships with technology and industry partners including Alibaba and HS Robotics
- Build and deepen Boson's university relationships across Victoria — Monash, University of Melbourne, RMIT, and others
- Recruit, onboard, and coordinate 8–10 Lead Mentors per cohort alongside track-specific advisors
- Represent Boson at ecosystem events, university forums, accelerator networks, and government engagements
3. Deal Flow & VC Support
- Surface high-quality deep tech deal flow through ecosystem relationships — university spinouts and accelerator alumni
- Support investment due diligence where ecosystem or program context is relevant
- Connect portfolio companies to industry partners, customers, talent, and follow-on capital
Must-haves
- Demonstrated experience running an accelerator, pre-accelerator, university innovation program, or equivalent multi-stakeholder initiative
- Strong founder-facing instincts: credible to technical founders
- Genuine comfort with deep tech across at least one of: healthcare, advanced manufacturing, clean tech, or AI/robotics
- High AI literacy and hands-on fluency with modern AI tools (Claude, Cowork, Cursor) — Boson Collider is an AI-first program
- Excellent operational discipline — timelines, partner commitments, compliance owned without dropping balls
- Strong structured thinking and bias toward action
Highly regarded
- Prior experience as a founder, early-stage operator, or VC analyst in deep tech
- Existing relationships in the Victorian innovation ecosystem
- Asia exposure — particularly Greater China or Singapore
- Bilingual English + Mandarin
- Experience with government funders (LaunchVic, IIF, MRFF, Breakthrough Victoria)
- A full-time role with genuine ownership — not a coordinator position
- The full weight of the Boson platform: GP team, portfolio companies, LP network, and Asia relationships from day one
- High autonomy and a direct seat at the table within a small, high-trust operating team
- Participation in Boson's carry programme — all team members share in the fund's carried interest
- Competitive remuneration and equity options for the right candidate
