About Us

Capsa AI is an operating system that aggregates, structures, and generates insights from company and market data for Private Equity (PE) funds. Founded in December 2023, we're already serving top-tier PE funds managing over £40 billion across the US, UK, and Europe. We've raised £1.8 million from Tier-1 VCs and leading PE angels, with our vision to become the leading AI platform for private capital funds.

Our founding team has deep domain expertise in PE and AI. Our CEO, Danyal, has spent most of his career in PE and Investment Banking at blue-chip financial institutions such as AEA Investors, Citigroup, and Deutsche Bank. Our CTO, Callum, is an expert in Machine Learning and AI, having worked at leading defence companies like QinetiQ, and retail tech startups such as Standard AI.

The Role

We seek a Customer Success Manager to drive adoption and revenue growth through exceptional customer experiences. You'll guide both paying clients and trial users, playing a crucial role in converting trials to customers. Working with sophisticated private equity clients, you'll ensure they achieve measurable business impact from our platform throughout their entire journey with Capsa.

This role is ideal for someone with 3–4 years of experience who wants more ownership and the chance to grow into a strategic CS role over time.

Experience working with PE/finance clients is helpful but not essential — we’re looking for someone smart, proactive, and excited to own problems and learn fast.
