Anyone have thoughts on Rede Partners in London? Seems like a really great team, and the work looks interesting. Insights into internal dynamics regarding secondaries vs advisory and their impact team would be much appreciated.

I'm a big fan of everyone I've ever interacted with there on the placement agent side of the house. The impact team puts together a great landscape of GPs in the impact space that they update decently regularly. Very well networked.
Thanks for sharing! I’m very interested in the impact space within PE: was wondering if you had any thoughts or tips about it. And do you think this is the kind of firm/field to start a career in?
They are doing a lot of work on the impact space and given their Europe orientation in addition to US presence, they're pretty plugged into some of the leading players. If you want a career in placement/IR, I would imagine that it is a good place to start. I don't really know what the exits from placement agents look like but Rede is a top one so would think exits from there would be as good as you could do from a placement agent.
Have heard hours are as bad as banking. Great chaps though - have interacted only with the seniors.
Thanks for the tip: strange given fund placement’s usual rep, maybe a plus that explains their good reputation. Any guesses you’d venture about how it is for a junior? Heard they’re trying to do a Cravath and start growing talent internally, not sure what to make of it.
Worked with (as a client) the London team on the secondary team and placement agent team very closely. Excellent people - pleasant, professional, down to earth.
Understood hours to be long. Exit opportunities seem rather strong.
They have excellent clients so your network and exposure to top-tier funds will be good.
Don't think there are better places to go for placement agencies, and they're rapidly building out a team including training wheel periods (which is rather new for placement agents I think), and have the size to put structures in place.
Thanks for the guidance, really great to see serious folks backing up the initial hunch
Just to get a gauge, are there generally better exits from independent houses like Rede/Campbell Lutyens or the Private Capital Advisory arms of EBs such as Laz/PJT/Evercore?
can anyone share comp estimates, and hours?
thanks!
Can't speak to comp, but judging from the above hours look to be longer for juniors than you'd expect from fund placement but still probably not IB.
bump!
