About Sustainable Wealth Group

Sustainable Wealth Group (SWG) is building the future of private market investing. As a technology-first, AI-driven investment platform, we connect family offices, UHNWI, and sophisticated investors with curated opportunities in Venture Capital, Private Equity, Private Credit, and Real Estate, focusing on businesses that create both financial value and measurable impact.

We are part of the Sustainable Group of Companies, a group that integrates media, technology, and investment to drive capital into purpose-driven innovation. With offices in London and expansion underway in Dubai, Singapore, and the U.S., we’re scaling fast, backed by a mission that aligns Profit, People and the Planet.

The Opportunity

We are seeking an exceptional Chief Investment Officer to lead the investment strategy for our private asset platform and build out a world-class investment framework and governance structure as we scale to a £250 million business globally.

This is not a passive leadership role. It’s an opportunity to build a new legacy from the ground up, refining our investment thesis, leading the investment committee, and creating long-term value for investors while backing businesses that are reshaping the future.

You’ll work closely with our CEO and Group Board to define the strategy, deploy capital, and ensure a balance of performance and purpose. You’ll lead with conviction, but collaborate with humility, working alongside a dynamic, ambitious, and values-aligned team.

What You’ll Do

1. Design and own SWG’s multi-asset investment strategy, with an emphasis on sustainability, innovation, and growth-stage impact
2. Build and lead our Investment Committee, bringing in trusted voices from VC, PE, credit, and real estate
3. Oversee deal filtering, diligence, risk management, and investment governance
4. Develop robust investment frameworks and internal scoring systems to assess opportunity flow at scale
5. Represent SWG in external discussions with family offices, funds, co-investors, and corporate clients
6. Help shape the launch of proprietary funds, SPV syndicates, and AI-powered portfolio tools
7. Partner with our CEO, tech, legal, and commercial teams to scale our platform globally
8. Contribute to brand authority by leading thought leadership, whitepapers, and investor briefings

What We’re Looking For

1. 10+ years experience across VC, PE, private credit, or real asset investing, preferably with multi-asset expertise
2. Proven track record deploying and managing capital in entrepreneurial or fast-scaling environments
3. Prior experience building a business or investment vehicle from scratch (bonus: exited founder or fund builder)
4. Deep understanding of investment committee processes, governance standards, and risk frameworks
5. You care deeply about impact and sustainable value creation
6. Comfortable in fast-growth, technology-led organisations. Bonus points if you’ve worked in or with startups
7. Exceptional communicator—able to win trust with both LPs and founders
8. Passionate about mentoring and working alongside a young, talented, and driven team

Bonus Attributes

1. Global perspective with experience in Middle East, U.S., or Asia-Pacific markets
2. Exposure to FCA regulations, SPV structuring, or fund creation
3. Interest in AI, tech platforms, and modern wealth infrastructure
4. Credibility or network in impact investing, climate tech, or regenerative sectors

What You’ll Get

• A senior leadership seat at one of the UK’s most ambitious alternative investment companies
• Direct influence over our global expansion, strategy, and legacy
• Equity upside and participation in fund performance as we scale
• Hybrid working from our London HQ with international travel as needed
• The chance to build a platform that balances capital and conscience
