The posting
Here at Humanoid, we believe in a future where robots amplify human potential. That’s why we’ve set out on a mission to build the world’s most capable, commercially-scalable, and safe humanoid robots. We’re bringing that mission to life with HMND‑01 - our rapidly developed humanoid platform being deployed in real industrial environments - and we’re growing the team to take it even further.
About The Role
We're hiring a Head of Investor Relations to join our Finance team, based in London, reporting to the CFO. In this role, you'll own Humanoid's investor relationships and communications end to end — building the cadence, materials, and infrastructure that keep existing and prospective investors informed and engaged as we scale from fast-growing startup to IPO-ready public company.
What You’ll Do
Investor Relations & Communications
- Own investor relations: Own day-to-day investor relations, serving as the key point of contact for existing and prospective investors and managing the cadence of updates, reporting, and communications.
- Build investor relationships: Build and maintain strong relationships with existing and prospective investors, understanding their priorities and proactively addressing their needs.
- Prepare investor updates: Prepare regular investor updates and communications that clearly and consistently represent Humanoid's performance and strategy.
Board & Capitalisation Reporting
- Prepare board materials: Prepare board materials and capitalisation reporting in partnership with finance and legal, ensuring accuracy and a consistent narrative.
- Manage the cap table: Own management of the capitalisation table and equity-related processes, working closely with Legal, Finance, and People teams on option grants, RSUs, and related administration.
- Maintain governance records: Maintain investor-facing governance records and disclosures in line with Board and regulatory expectations.
Fundraising & Investment Narrative Support
- Support fundraising rounds: Partner with the CFO, Treasurer, and founders on equity fundraising rounds — contributing to pitch decks, investment memos, and financial narratives.
- Support diligence: Support data-room management and investor diligence processes during fundraising, ensuring investors get clear, timely, well-organised information.
- Track market context: Track investor sentiment, comparable company performance, and market conditions relevant to fundraising and positioning strategy.
Process & Systems
- Build IR infrastructure: Establish scalable investor-relations processes, tools, and reporting cadences appropriate to a fast-growing, international business.
- Own IR tooling: Build and manage IR/cap-table tooling to track investor engagement and manage relationships as the group scales.
- Ensure compliance: Ensure investor communications and disclosures comply with relevant regulatory and reporting requirements.
