Career Resources
The portfolio is very diverse. We invest across all asset classes. The comp is very generous for analysts with potential for high bonuses depending on portfolio performance each year. The hours are about 55-65 depending on deal flow. it can go in waves depending on what we need within the portfolio. We try to not create a lot of turnover in the portfolio so most sourcing is in the credit/public equity space. All potential investments come to us so there is minimal travel unless we are going to meet a potential manager onsite/conferences. Since our office is small we have very little turnover. The backgrounds are, accounting, Real Estate PE, and IB. Curiously, no one has worked for a HF or PE firm.
