Senior Investment Manager - Healthcare, Later Living

• Full-time

At Octopus, we’re entrepreneurs and we’re investors, on a mission to back the people, ideas and industries that will change the world.

Octopus Capital invests in the homes where people receive care in later life. We run Octopus Healthcare Fund (£1.7bn, 115 care homes), and our Later Living team is one of the most active investors in the UK sector.

Why this role

You’ll have a senior seat on a £1.7bn healthcare fund, working across acquisitions, development funding, joint ventures and refinancings. You’ll have a hand in fund strategy and in how our Later Living platform grows, and you’ll help develop the junior investors around you.

The role

You’ll originate, execute and manage investments across healthcare real estate, from first look to portfolio performance. Your judgement decides which care homes and operators we back, and how those investments perform for the investors who rely on the fund.

• Negotiate terms and run due diligence alongside our advisers.

Grow the portfolio

• Improve performance across operating and development investments, and deliver value creation initiatives against business plans.
• Help shape fund strategy and budgets.

Raise capital and build relationships

• Support fundraising and investor due diligence, joining investor meetings, roadshows and industry events.
• Produce clear portfolio and market analysis for institutional investors, and build relationships with investors, operators and consultants.

Support the team

• A track record in real estate investment, with transactions you’ve taken from origination to completion
• Strong financial modelling and valuation skills that you’ve used to underwrite deals
• Experience working with institutional investors and investment committees
• Experience negotiating terms and managing advisers through due diligence
• Healthcare and later living experience

Meet most of this but not every point? We’d still like to hear from you.

What we offer

• A competitive salary, bonus, pension and share incentive plan
• Untracked holiday
• Hybrid working – three days in the office, two days from home
• Anchor (our wellness hub) which includes Headspace, one to one coaching through Wellness Cloud, Digital GP, employee assistance program & more

Our Values

At our core, we believe that how a company behaves is just as important as what it does. That’s why we chose to become an accredited B Corp (the equivalent of a Fairtrade coffee stamp but for companies) and to change our Articles of Association so that the interests all our stakeholders – employees, customers, communities, environment and shareholders – are considered in every decision we make.

We are committed to building a workplace where diversity is valued, and inclusion is a priority. By providing equal opportunities for growth and development, we embrace and celebrate all races, genders, religions, sexual orientations, ages, disabilities, and socio-economic backgrounds. We believe teams achieve their best when every member feels safe, respected and empowered to be their authentic selves.

We're proud to be disability confident and are committed to supporting candidates with a disability, including neurodiversity and mental health conditions, throughout the recruitment process. Applicants are welcome to opt-in to the disability confident scheme as part of our application process. If you require any adjustments to the interview process, we’ll be happy to accommodate where possible.
