About our client
Our client is a fast-growing investor, renowned for their innovative approach to delivering investment solutions across Europe. Founded by two seasoned investors with over a decade of experience in secondaries, they established with the idea to offer institutional investors access to mid-market opportunities across, which tends to be neglected by the larger secondaries investors. Their approach focuses on GP-led deals, which allows them to invest in continuation funds (single or multi-asset) of European mid-market GPs.

• Preparing detailed quantitative / qualitative analyses as well as Investment Memorandums to be discussed over regular Investment Committees
• Build and maintain relationships with fund managers, investors, and industry contacts
• Monitor portfolio company performance and market trends to identify new opportunities

• Strong analytical and quantitative skills with keen attention to detail
• Proven ability to interpret complex financial data and market information
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills for effective stakeholder engagement with a strong command of the English language and one other European language
