Do the Canadian PE funds (pension funds but also others like Onex, Brookfield, etc.) have distinct PE operations / value creation teams?
Or are those responsibilities all in the purview of an investment associate? On LinkedIn, I notice that titles for Canadian shops always seem to just say "Associate" or something generic like that.
Follow-up question: which Canadian funds have the largest focus on operational improvements?
Can't give you a full picture but can give you a few data points:
+ CPP PE: Has a dedicated value creation team (see linked Associated/Senior Associate role presently being advertised https://jobs.smartrecruiters.com/CPPInvestments/743999791226333-associa…).
+ BCI PE: Unclear, but I know their Infra team has some value creation folk on their bench so potentially yes.
+ OMERS PE: Has a dedicated value creation team which they call "Strategy & Operations" or "Operations & Strategy" (both titles are used by the requisite MDs).
Hope this helps.
Exactly what I was looking for, thank you!
Any idea on comp at the Associate / Senior Associate level at a shop like CPP for value creation? I've seen some figures for the investment team but curious how much lower value creation would be.
Unfortunately I don't. There is an excellent Heidrick & Struggles report dedicated to this space for North America but it doesn't provide any indication of if/how Canadian roles line up (as a subset of North America).
Happy hunting.
No independent CAD PE fund has a real in house operational team. Almost all employees have a plain vanilla finance background.
Birch Hill says they do, but its unclear.
