Head of Investor Relations / Investor Relations Director
Lower Mid-Market Private Credit | London | 2–3 days per week
WW15525
The Opportunity
Finatal are working with a specialist lower mid-market private credit investment firm looking to appoint an experienced Head of Investor Relations / Investor Relations Director as it prepares to return to market for their next fund.
The firm operates with a small, highly experienced investment team and is looking for a proven private markets fundraiser to take ownership of fundraising and investor relationships on a flexible 2–3 day-a-week basis.
The mandate is primarily focused on capital raising, with the successful individual expected to leverage and expand their LP network, originate new investor relationships and lead engagement throughout the fundraising process. They will also take responsibility for the firm's broader investor relations activity, working closely with the investment team on positioning, materials and communications.
This is an attractive opportunity for an established fundraiser looking to retain a senior, commercially meaningful role with genuine ownership, while benefiting from significantly greater flexibility than a traditional full-time IR position.

- Own the fundraising pipeline, investor meetings and follow-up process.
- Work closely with the investment team on fundraising materials, positioning and investor communications.

- Represent the firm across relevant investor and industry networks.

- Demonstrable track record of raising capital and developing long-term LP relationships.
- An established network across relevant UK and European investors.
- Credibility and gravitas with senior institutional investors.
- Proactive and commercially minded, with the ability to originate new relationships rather than simply manage an existing investor base.

Why This Opportunity?
This is an unusual opportunity to combine a senior fundraising mandate with genuine flexibility. The successful individual will have significant ownership of an important fundraising cycle, working directly alongside an experienced investment team and having a tangible impact on the firm's continued development.
The 2–3 day-a-week structure should be particularly attractive to an established fundraiser looking to move away from a traditional five-day position without stepping away from the private markets industry.
