Job description

Operating Analyst, Private Equity Roll-up

AYCE Capital is a Private Equity fund that operates a roll-up platform in the IT Services (MSP) space. The firm acquires and partners with high-performing MSP managers to foster organic growth and elevate service delivery. We prioritize partnerships with MSPs that emphasize quality service, customer satisfaction, and employee well-being.

Founded in 1993, Plextec Inc. specializes in providing secure, hosted MSP solutions that streamline IT management and improve operational efficiency. With over 20 years of experience, Plextec is a trusted leader in the insurance industry, offering services from hardware and software design to testing and integration. The company is committed to delivering high-performance, scalable, secure, and reliable systems.

Job Description:

This role is split into two parts, involving collaboration with two teams.

First, managing the business operations of Plextec, a recent acquisition of AYCE Capital. You will oversee all aspects of business operations, working closely with the head engineer on service delivery and infrastructure, supporting the engineering team and sales lead to grow the business. Your goal is to support Plextec in maintaining operational excellence. Plextec is based in Kitchener, Waterloo, with occasional travel to the office; however, the role is primarily remote. This responsibility will take approximately 40% of your time, or about two days per week.

Second, working with the AYCE Capital Operations team on strategic projects impacting its portfolio companies across the MSP platform. This aspect is highly flexible, involving work in sales and marketing, accounting, HR, procurement, and internal consulting. It is fully remote but may require occasional travel to meet with executives or attend conferences.

This role demands high diligence, interpersonal skills, intelligence, work capacity, and an outcome-oriented mindset.

Work-life balance is notably better than similar roles in private equity and high finance; however, the environment is dynamic and may be challenging for those who prefer less change.

The compensation range is $70,000 to $120,000, with potential for upward growth aligned with AYCE Capital’s success. Benefits are not provided at this time.

New graduates and career switchers are encouraged to apply. The right attitude and foundational skills are key, with compensation based on experience and career stage.

Responsibilities

1. Manage financial processes, including budgeting, expense tracking, and invoicing.
2. Coordinate office supplies, ensure inventory is stocked, and manage orders.
3. Support administrative and operational tasks to promote overall success.
4. Drive KPIs and ensure the company's success.

Additional responsibilities for AYCE Capital include:

1. Executing assigned projects.
2. Conducting research, analysis, and creating reports.
3. Preparing PowerPoint and Excel deliverables for platform management and capital raising.
4. Managing projects and external consultants.
5. Participating in portfolio company executive meetings to advise on KPI achievement.

Qualifications

Must-have skills:

• Ability to learn quickly and adapt to new information.
• Excellent written and verbal English communication skills.
• Attention to detail and ability to meet deadlines.
• Outcome-focused mindset.
• Ability to multitask and work under pressure.
• Basic knowledge of computer hardware and software.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite.
• Legal authorization to work in Canada.
