Investment Manger – Mid-Market Private Equity | London
An established London private equity firm is adding a senior investment professional to its team.
The firm invests in mid-market buyouts across the UK and Europe, backing management teams in profitable, founder-led and family-owned businesses through control and significant minority positions.
Key Responsibilities
- Own transactions end-to-end - from origination through structuring, diligence and negotiation to completion - acting as the primary point of contact for management teams and advisers.
- Build and maintain relationships with corporate finance advisers, management teams and intermediaries to generate proprietary and off-market opportunities.
- Lead commercial, financial and legal workstreams, coordinating external advisers and forming an independent view on investment merit.
- Author investment papers and present recommendations directly to the Investment Committee.
- Work alongside management teams post-completion on strategic initiatives, buy-and-build and exit preparation, including board representation.
- Candidate Profile
- 5-8 years in mid-market private equity with a demonstrable track record of leading buyout transactions to completion.
- Proven ability to run a deal independently- origination, execution and negotiation - rather than supporting a wider team.
- Strong commercial judgement and the credibility to sit opposite management teams and advisers.
- Equity investing background essential; credit, debt advisory and lending-led profiles are not a fit for this mandate.
- Prior board or portfolio value-creation exposure advantageous.
