how to put search fund on resume

soph currently at a search fund (began this past month) and would like to put it on my resume for IB recruiting. the fund was just started last fall so little is being done in the way of rigorous financial modeling (at least not anything that I'm exposed to) and all my work is sourcing potential purchases and then presenting them alongside the other analysts to the managing partner. how should I frame this on my resume, especially with me only having had this role for 2 weeks

-Deal sourcing: Assuming you’re on the phone with investment banks and brokers talk about building out a “deal tracker” database.

-Conducting detailed industry research

-Presenting to senior leadership, PPT skills, presentation skills etc.

Also I would ask for your guys to give you some modeling experience, I’m sure they have some models that they can run you through.
