We built an investment platform for structured access to high-quality real-world assets.

The first phase is focused on qualified investors, anchor capital, private placements and a disciplined asset strategy. The broader ambition is to build trusted ownership infrastructure for real-world assets, allowing investors to access, understand and participate in opportunities that have traditionally been difficult to reach.

We are now looking for a Capital Formation Co-founder / Partner.

This is not an advisory role, a board seat, a consulting mandate or a traditional paid executive position.

This is a founder-level seat for someone who can help move the business from platform, structure and strategy into capital activation.

The role

The right person will help secure anchor capital, activate HNI and family-office investor channels, shape the first investor-facing proposition, and build credibility with private bankers, wealth managers, capital allocators and real asset investors.

This is not about “introductions” in the abstract.

It is about turning qualified investor interest into real conversations, committed capital and repeatable distribution.

You may currently have another role. That is acceptable at the beginning.

But this cannot be passive. The expectation is that, if alignment is real, you will own a defined part of the business and help drive it.

What you would own

You would likely lead or co-lead:

  • capital formation strategy;
  • anchor investor outreach;
  • family office and HNI distribution;
  • private placement positioning;
  • investor objection mapping;
  • first asset funding strategy;
  • investor materials and capital narrative;
  • relationship development with private banks, wealth managers and investment networks;
  • feedback loops between investors, asset strategy, legal structure and product.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Only hits

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

The profile we are looking for

This may fit you if you have experience in one or more of the following:

  • private banking;
  • wealth management;
  • family office advisory;
  • fund management;
  • real asset investment;
  • capital raising;
  • private placements;
  • HNI / UHNI investor networks;
  • alternative investments;
  • structured products;
  • real estate finance;
  • investor relations;
  • capital markets.

The ideal person understands how investors think before they invest.

Not only the upside.

Also the doubts, risks, objections, trust barriers, liquidity questions, governance expectations, reporting needs and reputational concerns.

What matters most

We do not need someone who simply likes the idea.

We need someone who can help answer a harder question:

How do we get qualified capital to trust, understand and participate in the first phase of the business?

The right person should bring at least one form of direct leverage:

  • access to qualified investors;
  • family office relationships;
  • private banking or wealth management network;
  • real asset capital formation experience;
  • ability to structure and present investment opportunities credibly;
  • ability to open institutional or semi-institutional channels;
  • experience raising or allocating capital into real assets.

Skin in the game

This is a founder-level opportunity, so real alignment is required.

Skin in the game may take different forms depending on the profile and final structure:

  • personal capital contribution;
  • committed investor access;
  • performance-based equity tied to capital formation milestones;
  • active ownership of a defined business function;
  • measurable delivery over the first 90–180 days.

The exact structure will depend on the candidate, role, contribution and legal framework.

But the principle is non-negotiable:

Founder equity must correspond to real contribution, real accountability and real value creation.

This is not a passive title.

First 60 days

The first 60 days would be focused on proving capital activation.

Expected priorities may include:

  • defining the first investor segment;
  • mapping qualified investor channels;
  • refining the first private placement proposition;
  • testing the narrative with real investors;
  • securing investor feedback;
  • identifying anchor investor candidates;
  • helping prepare the business for capital conversations;
  • building the first repeatable capital formation process.

What we are not looking for

We are not looking for:

  • passive advisors;
  • people looking for a salaried role from day one;
  • generic startup enthusiasts;
  • crypto-first promoters;
  • people who only want a title;
  • people who cannot point to concrete capital, investor or distribution leverage.

Why now

The business has moved beyond idea stage.

The platform, asset thesis, legal thinking, structure and initial strategic direction are already in motion.

The next challenge is activation.

Capital, trust, distribution and execution.

That is the seat.

This is a selective founder-level conversation.

If the fit is real, the next step is a direct conversation under NDA.
