Venture Capital Compensation by Role: What the Data Actually Shows

Any day Thelander data is used in a Halle Tecco, MPH, MBA blog post is a good day. Halle updated her post on “The Many Roles at a Venture Fund — And How to Land Them” with real-time (& exclusive) compensation data from the Thelander platform for six job titles. We customized the data by under $1 Billion and $1 Billion+, Venture Capital only — but subscribers can get even more granular than that.

A few highlights:

• The median cash compensation for a GP at a fund with under $1 billion in AUM is $500,000. The 75th percentile is $763,940, and the max is $5 million.

• The median total cash for an Operating Partner at a fund under $1 billion is $200,000 with 3.5% carry, rising to $425,000 and 1.5% carry at funds over $1 billion.

• Total cash for EIRs typically falls between $216,000 and $260,000 at smaller funds.

Participate in the Thelander-PitchBook Investment Firm Compensation Survey to see how your cash and carry compare to market benchmark today. There is no cost to submit your data and all information is published in aggregate only with no individual names or firm names reported.
