A few highlights of your day-to-day responsibilities*

• Identify attractive companies through primary strategic research.
• Communicate professionally with business owners & key executives over the phone and through other outreach, using a consultative business sales approach.
• Mapping the investible universe, prioritizing the most relevant targets, and devising coverage strategies.
• Write professional correspondence (letters and emails) to key executives.

• Develop marketing materials to pitch various clients and strategies.

Please note that there is no financial modelling in the role and only minor financial statement analysis.

Requirements

The successful candidate will be:

• High-energy, entrepreneurial and intrinsically motivated — a go-getter who is smart, eager to learn, hard-working, organized, detail-oriented, tenacious, charismatic, adaptable, a quick thinker, curious, self-directed, able to multi-task well, able to bounce back from rejection with resilience... and a bit competitive!
• Able to research, prospect, source and build new executive relationships with minimal oversight.
• Able to relate to diverse businesspeople — from sophisticated bankers and PE firm leaders to street-smart company founders and entrepreneurs.
• A polished communicator, both verbal and written. Someone with a background in, or naturally wired for, sales and deal-making.
• Willing to roll up their sleeves and provide hands-on support to Associates in pursuing new deals, with a driven work ethic, an intuitive knack for engaging with people, and a collaborative approach to the “deal team”.
• Excited about getting a practical, on-the-job “mini-MBA” education without the expense of graduate school.

We do have a few requirements:

• Bachelor's degree from an accredited university. All degree subjects are encouraged to apply.
• 1-3 years of sales, prospecting or origination experience. This does not need to be finance related data and information sales, recruitment, expert networks, business development, professional services and other client-facing roles are all a big plus for our line of work.
• Experience making a high volume of outbound calls and emails daily.
• Strong interpersonal, organizational and communication skills, with proficiency in Microsoft Office and strong attention to detail.
• A self-starter who is also able to contribute effectively within a team environment.
• Closely aligned with the characteristics of a successful candidate (above).

What we bring to the table for you:

• The opportunity to get involved in the private equity industry early in your career and work towards becoming an established deal maker down the road (this is an industry that is hard to break into and often requires years of experience and an MBA from a prestigious university).
• A culture that inspires learning, encourages autonomous work, fosters team collaboration, rewards hard work and results, and offers a sustainable work/life balance with the opportunity for a long-term career path.
• Compensation: a competitive base salary plus bonuses on your team's closed transactions. As an Analyst grows in the company (Analyst II, Senior Analyst, Associate, Vice President) they can expect their bonuses and earning potential to grow significantly.
