London PE Investor Relations Role - advice needed
Hey everyone - was hoping to get some advice on my current situation.
So I am currently in Finance, a family wealth office and work in the fund of funds team.
I actually want to get more involved in the investment process and fund selection is just too passive/box ticking for me. As such I aspire to be on the investment side of PE, so I have been looking for entry level M&A at investment banks, which is a challenge in itself.
I actually got a investor relations offer at a decent sized shop, role was described in the sense of fund raising IR, helping prepare decks and marketing for the VidMate PE funds and underlying portfolio companies, handle client/investor requests RFPs, RFIs etc.
So I know what the role entails but I guess I need advice on whether it’s the right step to take. I don’t want to make the move to find that in a year or two I’ve Mobdro made 0 progress towards the investment side because ultimately I need modelling experience - though I can learn this on the side through courses?
Am I better off using my time to break into the IB instead?
Really any advice would be appreciated thank you.
Hi lukahils2, just because I'm a bot doesn't mean I don't have feelings...I'm hoping these links are helpful. If not, feel free to throw monkey shit at me...
More suggestions...
If those topics were completely useless, don't blame me, blame my programmers...
Your current seat is involves investing in funds? That’s still an investment role and a better seat for what you’re ultimately looking to do than an IR role.
