We’ve been instructed by transactional risk broking practice with global reach in their search for a Head of Secondaries.

With secondaries deal volume at record levels and insurance increasingly central to how GP-led and LP-led deals get done, they are looking to appoint a Head of Secondaries to build and lead their secondaries proposition.

This is a genuine, ground-up leadership opportunity.

You will own the strategy, origination and execution of the secondaries offering, backed by an established broking platform with global reach and the mandate to build a team around you as the proposition grows.

You will lead the structuring and placement of W&I and related risk across secondaries transactions — from single-asset and multi-asset GP-led continuation funds to LP-led portfolio sales and clean wind-up/warranty-replacement structures — working closely with GPs, LPs, secondary buyers, fund counsel and clean teams to bridge negotiation gaps and accelerate distributions to LPs.

You will also build the firm's secondaries client base and broker network, domestically and internationally, and act as the senior authority internally on secondaries-specific underwriting, diligence scope and conflict management.

We're keen to speak with senior professionals with strong experience of, and an established network within, the secondaries market — whether from transactional risk broking or underwriting, private equity secondaries advisory, fund/placement agency, or a relevant legal background — who have the credibility and relationships to build and lead a proposition from the front.

This is a genuine opportunity to build and shape a Secondaries proposition with real autonomy over strategy, positioning and hiring as the practice grows.

The platform and backing of an established broking house with global reach means you are set up for success with access to genuine growth opportunity.
