The Opportunity

About Our Client

Our client modernizes private market fund management, empowering fund CFOs to transform their teams into strategic business leaders.

Their platform unifies financial and operational fund data to power accurate reporting, automate manual processes, and unlock real-time insights. Built to handle the complexity of private markets – serving PE, growth equity, private credit, and real estate funds.

Developed by fund managers for fund managers, the team brings deep experience from the office of the CFO, fund accounting, and fund administration. They pair industry expertise with modern technology and user-friendly design to get teams up and running in months, not years.

Who You Are

• Deep understanding of private markets, institutional software, or finance (investment banking, corporate development, fund services, real estate brokerage).
• Proven track record consistently exceeding multi-million dollar quotas.
• High IQ and EQ – you're consultative, client-first, and credible with senior executives.
