Job description

WHY THIS ROLE EXISTS

At Vantrock, capital follows the deal, never the other way around. Every asset therefore needs its own case, built to the standard an institutional investment committee expects. That means a model that holds under diligence, a book that tells the story in the order a decision is made, and a process that runs to close without every step landing on the founder.

This seat does that work. It is a hardcore investment banking seat inside an operating real assets platform. You prepare the deals, build the models and the pitchbooks, storyboard the case, and coordinate with investors and capital partners in India and overseas. You also do the groundwork for the platform's proposed InvIT and REIT pathways, which is why a working command of both vehicles is essential.

You should not apply if your recent years have been spent managing relationships while someone else built the model and the book. We are looking for the person who builds them.

WHAT YOU WILL OWN

• Prepare deals end to end. Investor mapping, outreach, NDAs, teasers, information memoranda, data rooms, diligence questions and term negotiation support, through to close.
• Build and run the pitchbooks. Platform and asset-level books, management presentations and investment committee material, each built to the audience reading it.
• Own the models. Development and stabilised-asset models, capital-stack and waterfall models, sensitivities and scenario cases, built in Excel by you and able to survive an investor's diligence team.
• Storyboard the case. Turn a site, a leasing pipeline and a capital structure into a storyline an investor can follow and decide on.
• Coordinate with investors and capital partners, domestic and foreign. Be the single working point of contact on materials, data requests, follow-ups and timelines, across time zones.
• Build the platform's working knowledge of InvITs and REITs. Benchmark the listed vehicles, track the SEBI framework, and prepare the analytical groundwork for the proposed pathways.
• Keep the market view current. Transactions, comparables, yields and investor appetite across logistics, warehousing and industrial real estate.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

• 8+ years in investment banking, with 8–10 years of real estate experience.
• A solid, demonstrable record of preparing deals, running pitchbooks, building Excel models and storyboarding transactions yourself.
• A track record of coordinating with LPs and institutional investors, both domestic and foreign.
• A working understanding of InvITs and REITs, including their structure, regulation and how investors value them.
• You use AI tools every day in your work and can show what you have done with them.
• Mumbai, on site, with travel.

Advantageous

• Logistics, warehousing or industrial real estate transactions
• Direct work on an InvIT or REIT, whether a listing, a private placement or an acquisition
• Investor coverage across the GCC, Singapore, Europe or the United States
• An MBA in Finance, a CA or the CFA

What this role is not

• It is not an investor relations seat with modelling on the side.
• It is not a finance or treasury seat. Accounts, treasury and banking relationships sit with the finance team.
• It is not a land origination seat. Land sits with the land and investments team.

STANDING REQUIREMENTS

AI proficiency is a standing requirement in every seat at Vantrock. You use AI tools daily as force multipliers, and you judge their output rather than forwarding it. This is tested for every appointment through a supervised assessment. There are no exceptions by seniority.

Partner command is the second standing requirement. Vantrock runs on outsourced partners, so every person here must be able to scope, brief, hold to an SLA, score and commercially discipline a partner, and must know what should never be delegated.

COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY

Vantrock benchmarks compensation against the upper quartile for the role and market, weighted toward equity for candidates who want to build with us long-term. We discuss specific numbers in the first conversation rather than anchoring either side prematurely.

CULTURAL FIT

We're building Vantrock over a decade, not a funding cycle. We're looking for people who treat technology as the default answer rather than a supplement, who want to be co-builders of the platform rather than employees executing instructions, and who are comfortable saying "I don't know" and "I was wrong." If you want a defined role with defined edges, this isn't the right seat. If you want to help build an institution from zero, it might be.
