Guisela Figueredo
Legal Operations Analyst
About me
I’m an attorney, and I was lucky to join Seedcamp’s Legal team in December 2022. Before joining Seedcamp, I completed an MBA program at the University of Edinburgh. Prior to that, I gained experience working in law firms, in-house legal departments, and leading teams providing legal services. My most recent role was as Operations Manager and Senior Consultant at Capgemini.
I’m originally from the beautiful country of Guatemala (which I highly recommend you visit!). In my younger days, I was part of the national karate team. Now that I’m older—and my body constantly reminds me—I stick to yoga and reading. I have a soft spot for animals and love traveling to explore new cultures and cuisines, but nothing gets me going like sharing a meal and having a good laugh with friends and family.
From Day One
My ultimate goal at Seedcamp is to give our founders the best possible experience when working with legal—from deal-related matters during our first check, to navigating the legal nuances that require investor collaboration throughout the company’s lifecycle, all the way to exits.
My additional responsibilities vary from collaborating with law firms within the startup ecosystem, to monitoring and reporting on fund assets.
I enjoy exploring the synergies between finance and legal aspects of our portfolio, aiming to optimise deal terms to maximise value for all stakeholders. I also have a weird and rarely shared passion for building accessory financial models, from cap table simulations to waterfalls, so feel free to reach out if I can help with that anytime!
