Job description

Associate / Senior Associate, Wingman Growth Partners

Greenwich, CT | In office Monday through Thursday, remote Fridays

Who we are

Wingman Growth Partners is a growing private equity firm with a $215M fund raised in 2026. We buy founder-led, mission-critical vertical software businesses with $5M to $30M of ARR in the U.S. and Canada.

We look for companies that are the system of record and mission critical for their customers: deeply embedded in daily workflows, sticky, and positioned to grow through both organic expansion and M&A. We are a founder’s partner, not just a capital provider.

Our team comes from some of the largest investment firms in the world, including General Atlantic, TA Associates, KKR, Blackstone, and Vista Equity Partners. We have built Wingman to combine that institutional rigor with the speed and ownership of a small firm, and we are growing.

Why this role

We are building out our investment team, and this is a chance to get in early at a firm on the rise. You will not be one of dozens of associates. You will sit next to the partners, work on live deals from day one, have real responsibility across the full investment lifecycle, and grow your role as the firm grows.

What you will do

• Find great vertical software, fintech, and data companies and build relationships with their founders
• Dig into markets, competitors, and business models to figure out what makes a company worth owning
• Build models, write investment memos, and form a point of view
• Run diligence alongside management teams and outside advisors
• Help get deals across the finish line
• Work with portfolio company leadership on growth, add-on acquisitions, and value creation

What we are looking for

• 2+ years of investment banking and investing experience
• A real focus on software and technology, and genuine enthusiasm for the space
• An exceptional work ethic and a love of investing and winning
• Strong modeling and analytical skills, and clear, concise writing
• Curiosity, good judgment, and the drive to own your work end to end
• Someone who prefers building something to maintaining it

What we offer

• Competitive compensation, commensurate with experience
• Health insurance covered by the firm
• Dental and vision coverage
• 401(k) with employer match
• Remote Fridays

Timing

Start date is flexible, from immediate through 2027.
