Our client is a founder-led alternative investment manager focused on complex, illiquid special situations. Led by partners from top-tier credit and special situations platforms, the firm has built a strong track record and is preparing for a significant capital raise over the next year. They are hiring their first dedicated marketing and investor relations leader: the person whose job is to market the firm and its strategies every day, drive the fundraise, and be the main point of contact for investors.
What you'll do:
- Own the fundraise for the firm's next closed-end vehicle, from pipeline build and outreach through first and final close
- Tell the story of a differentiated, complex strategy to LPsBuild and manage relationships with existing and prospective LPs, primarily in North America
- Lead investor meetings, materials and follow-up, working directly with the Managing Partners
- Direct marketing operations support (materials, data room, CRM) with a junior team member
- What you bring
- Hands-on fundraising experience at an alternative investment manager
- A track record of raising closed-end, illiquid capital from start to finish
- Comfort explaining complex credit, distressed or special situations strategies
- Established relationships with North American institutional investors
- Mid-level to early-senior experience: ready to own a raise, not just support one
- Entrepreneurial, hungry and energized by building in a lean, senior team
- A self-starter who opens doors: you build pipeline from cold outreach, not just inherited coverage
- This is a capital-raising role, not a reporting or client-service-operations role
- Why it's interesting
- A rare chance to be the face of the firm to investors during a major growth phase
- Direct partnership with experienced founders and real ownership of outcomesLOCATION IS OPEN - firm is Miami-based, but this seat can be based anywhere; regular travel
