Job description

Investment Professional, Specialised Consumer Firm, London, UK

We're working with an entrepreneurial mid-market private equity firm. The team specialises in investments in consumer-facing businesses. They're seeking a mid-level investor or experienced corporate financier to join the team to work across the deal process.

Our client is a mid-market private equity investor that targets global investment opportunities. With a flexible mandate, the firm looks to support management teams through both growth and buyout investments. The firm uses a deal-by-deal funding structure giving additional flexibility in how it invests. You will support across the full deal cycle from origination, execution, and portfolio management and must be comfortable working with a high level of autonomy.

What the job involves

• Work on all aspects of the transaction process across origination, deal structuring, negotiation, execution, and portfolio management.
• Take specific responsibility for workstreams and run parts of a transaction.
• Work actively with the portfolio post-acquisition.
• Contribute to SPA negotiations and IC discussions.
• Proactive work with management teams.

Who we are looking for

• Exposure to private equity transactions ideally from another mid-market private equity firm, possible experience from within corporate finance.
• Strong financial literacy, likely ACA qualified although not essential.
• High EQ and a self-starter.
• An entrepreneurial nature is required and an ability to build rapport with international management teams.
