Capital Growth Mentors are a specialized advisory tier within the ecosystem—helping funds, sponsors, and portfolio companies scale capital, accelerate growth, and strengthen long-term investment platforms while earning through high-impact advisory engagements.

Role Overview

Initio Sphere is onboarding Capital Growth Mentors to provide strategic guidance focused on capital expansion, fundraising effectiveness, and growth-driven investment strategy.

Provide portfolio advisory services focused on capital efficiency, expansion, and performance optimization

Fund growth strategy, capital raising, and LP communications

Growth-oriented deal structuring and investment committee support

Portfolio company scaling, capital optimization, and value creation planning

Investor relations and long-term capital strategy
