Investment Manager Comp at OpCo/DevCo level?

A Senior living Platform acquired by Oaktree named Auriens is recruiting an Investment Manager (key duties are 1.Modelling debt/dealing with lenders, 2.Modelling developments and 3. Reporting to sponsor/OCM). Does anyone know what the comp (base+bonus) would be for this kind of role? Sounds like a Senior Associate role but it's difficult to know what benchmark to use for a DevCo/OpCo like this one. 

Any indication would be greatly appreciated 🙏

That's really helpful - thank you very much ! It's the ballpark I was expecting.

 

Sure, I'm in RE debt UW/Asset Management (Senior Associate). Base is similar but bonus expectations are a bit better (40-60%) ballpark. I think here the trade-off would be moving to an asset class with some tailwinds (demographics) and pretty much at its birth in Europe (compared to the US). Do you work for a senior living platform as well? If not what kind of assets ? 

 

Interesting, have you confirmed base + bonus with them? It would be really appreciated if you could share it !

Nothing clearly confirmed on the base, but said it could potentially be aligned on expectations (matching the above numbers). Emphasized on the "Sub 40% bonus" imposed by Oaktree. 

I'm experienced in this sector, targeting the same trade-off as you and reassured by Oaktree regarding firepower (Proper struggle to raise capital even with a nice business plan+capital advisory firm on a success fee mandate atm...) but what's the point in evolving in a succeeding firm/market if your comps is capped by the OPCO... I'll try to dig more during next rounds.

 

Agreed, I guess this one is all about the delayed gratification: acquiring expertise/exposure that you might sell later at a higher price. To be honest, from what I hear Oaktree tends to be quite frugal with comp for staff in the platforms they acquire, as you'd expect they try to extract as much value as possible.
