Edgworth Partners is working with an established global alternative investment firm seeking to appoint a mid-level Business Development and Investor Relations professional to its London team.
The firm invests across GP stakes and supports a range of alternative investment strategies spanning hedge funds and absolute return, private credit, venture capital, real assets and other private-market strategies. Its institutional client programmes include commingled funds, separately managed accounts and complex, highly customised investment solutions.
The successful candidate will help manage and develop several of the firm’s most important institutional client relationships. Working closely with senior leadership, the role combines proactive account management, investor servicing and commercial relationship development.
Key responsibilities:
- Acting as a trusted point of contact for a portfolio of sophisticated institutional investors
- Supporting client relationships across bespoke mandates, SMAs, commingled funds and complex GP stakes investment programmes
- Preparing for client meetings and coordinating follow-up activity across investment, strategy and fund operations teams
- Managing complex, multi-part client requests and exercising good judgement over when to elevate matters
- Overseeing monthly, quarterly and annual reporting processes, ensuring all communications are accurate and client-ready
- Managing the quarterly investor letter process and contributing to relevant market commentary
- Responding to investor questions relating to performance, exposures, pacing, portfolio construction, fund structures and fee calculations
- Maintaining account plans and identifying opportunities to broaden relationships through additional strategies or customised solutions
- Supporting RFPs and contributing to improvements in the firm’s investor-relations processes and systems
We are interested in speaking with candidates who offer:
- Institutional investor relations, client coverage or business development experience within alternative asset management
- Experience working with sophisticated and internationally based institutional investors
- Exposure to multi-manager, fund-of-funds, GP stakes, hedge fund, private credit or wider private-markets investment strategies
- Experience supporting complex mandates, separately managed accounts or customised institutional solutions
- A sound understanding of alternative investment structures, performance metrics and institutional reporting
- Excellent written communication, relationship-management and project-management skills
- Strong commercial judgement, attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple workstreams
- A proactive and adaptable approach suited to an entrepreneurial, fast-moving environment
This is an opportunity to take meaningful ownership of globally significant institutional relationships, work closely with senior leadership and gain exposure to complex alternative investment programmes across multiple asset classes.
