Investor Relations at Private Equity Insights — This role offers you the opportunity to expand and nurture our community of VIP groups such as institutional investors (LPs) and other key stakeholders in the Private Equity industry. If you want to help define the future of Private Equity, thrive in a fast-paced environment with meaningful responsibility, and enjoy building relationships, you might be our next member of the investor relations team.

Private Equity Insights is the world’s largest Private Equity community with 500k followers on LinkedIn, organizing a series of 12 global private equity events every year with 2,000+ GPs and 1,000+ LPs among attendees.

You get the unique opportunity to take ownership of one of our key business areas. You’ll be working in-person at our HQ in London where you will be continually pushed out of your comfort zone. To support ongoing growth, we provide:

• The opportunity to have a real impact — you’ll gain operational experience in a start-up where your work and results are tangible and matter to the business.
• Inspiration and guidance — the chance to work closely with our high-performing team as well as with the CEO and founder.
• Unlimited growth potential — we strongly believe in and have a track record of promoting internally.
• Travel opportunities — you would be joining our conferences overseas.
• Invaluable transferable skills — boost interpersonal, research, organisation, outreach and project management skills through experience and training.

Responsibilities in this role will vary but are mostly centered around:

• Identify, maintain and develop long-standing, fruitful relationships with institutional investors who can benefit from our targeted offering and network.
• Facilitate 1:1 meetings with relevant fund managers to accommodate the investment strategy of the LP.
• Support the team to fulfil delivery of our exclusive products such as roundtables, panel sessions, and VIP receptions, which may require securing audiences beyond our usual definition of institutional investors, such as GPs.

Whether you are with us for 2 years or 10+, we view this position as laying the foundation for a very successful career. We are strong believers in internal promotions and aim to fill all management positions internally; with 45% of our people exiting to PE/Venture or M&A, this emphasizes the opportunity arising from this company.

Please note that this job does not require any specific previous work experience as training is provided and we are looking to hire candidates across different levels of experience. However, a UK work permit is required.

Additionally, we are looking for candidates who:

• Have a relentless drive and desire to be the very best at what they do;
• Possess an unparalleled work ethic with a high sense of urgency;
• Take ownership of everything they do, are proactive and follow through on commitments;
• Are curious about people and enjoy speaking, building and nurturing relationships;
• Are excellent communicators (especially verbally and in writing);
• Are well-organised with the ability to structure and prioritise work.

The role is onsite, Monday to Friday, based in our offices at Sloane Square. It is essential we work at a fast pace and collaborate in person to create market-leading, unmatched events throughout the calendar year.
