PE Real Estate - London

Hey everyone,

I was directly contacted for an associate position in PE Real Estate for one of the largest Asset Management companies in London.

  1. Does anyone have experience with working for such a company?

  2. How much do they pay? (I have 4 years work experience in RE and IBD with a wide network in the RE industry)

  3. How are the working hours and career paths, exit options and current environment for PERE?

  4. Do they usually pay a starting bonus for moving to London?

Thanks in advance!

Best Regards

Kazar
