Key Responsibilities
- Conducting detailed business due diligence and evaluating opportunities to form a recommendation to senior members of the team
- Building financial models and undertaking detailed valuation analysis for new and existing investments
- Negotiating documentation with counterparties
- Preparing and presenting materials to the investment committee
- Engaging directly with management teams and key stakeholders

The Ideal Candidate
- 1-5 years' experience in direct investment (private credit, private equity or infrastructure) or in leveraged finance, M&A or direct investments at a top-tier investment bank

- Strong written and verbal communication, comfortable forming and presenting a view
- Genuinely passionate about investing and eager to learn
- Able to run multiple live processes at once, proactive with sound judgement
- A team player with a strong work ethic
Why Apply?
- High-quality, selective investing: no pressure to deploy capital, so the focus stays on the right deal, structure and return
- Genuine access to decision-makers: direct exposure to senior local and global stakeholders, with investment views discussed early
- Broad, meaningful deal work: sector-agnostic corporate and sponsor-backed lending, typically $200mio+ with flexibility for smaller opportunities
- More deal-focused than private equity: limited operational portfolio burden, centred on underwriting a small number of high-conviction investments each year
- Efficient, pragmatic culture: effort is matched to deal probability, not exhaustive materials for unlikely opportunities
