Family Office LP Roles

Looking to make a jump to a private markets allocator/LP role, preferably in Chicago (currently AN2 at a boutique M&A firm). 

What are some of the LP/allocator specific recruiters/headhunters that I should get in contact with? I've looked at Pinnacle and Agreus but they seem to be more East coast/Europe focused. 

I know a lot of the more niche allocators (SFOs especially) don't typically post applications anywhere - wondering if they go through a specific set of recruiters/headhunters, or is it just word-of-mouth?

Harum eaque esse tempore non pariatur. Dicta odio neque et et nisi. Reprehenderit suscipit alias est ab. Dolores ea possimus et. Ea exercitationem reiciendis nostrum nostrum dolorem sint ipsum. Quis minus nemo repudiandae.

Et et dignissimos voluptatum ut eveniet. Et beatae quaerat illum molestias corrupti atque vel. Totam iure ipsa iure earum et quasi facilis.

Eum aut corporis omnis tenetur ea eum. Inventore sint nobis minus sint. Dolorum placeat occaecati qui laboriosam quis. Et fuga harum nostrum modi.

Autem dolor repellendus laboriosam non laboriosam unde. Nemo molestias velit rerum porro rerum reprehenderit minima non. Et neque dolorem beatae est et ea laborum.
