Our view
What we look for
Growth investing rewards a different profile than buyout. We assess for sourcing and origination ability, founder-facing judgement, sector depth and comfort with minority positions, not just modelling skill.
FAQ
Common questions
How is growth equity hiring different from buyout hiring?
Growth funds weight sourcing, sector knowledge and founder relationships more heavily. Candidates often come from venture, consulting or banking.
Do you hire sector specialists?
Yes. We map candidates by sector experience, deal history and network, so specialist searches start from evidence.
Can you help us hire for a new sector vertical?
Yes. We build the market map first, so you can see who exists before committing to a profile.
