Apply for Analyst, Capital Placement
NEW YORK, UNITED STATES · Full-time
Role Overview
The firm is recruiting an Analyst to its Capital Placement practice in New York. The Analyst sits at the centre of live placement work — investor mapping, materials production, modelling, diligence coordination, and process execution from origination through final close. Analysts are embedded in mandates from week one and operate alongside senior practitioners on engagements that demand jurisdictional fluency, asset-class breadth, and exposure to the firm's principal investor base from the earliest stages of the role.
The practice acts on placements across private equity, private credit, real estate, infrastructure, and venture mandates, distributed across the firm's proprietary network of family offices, single- and multi-family offices, sovereign and quasi-sovereign investors, and selected institutional allocators. The volume and quality of allocator interaction available to a junior practitioner at the firm is materially different from what is available at larger institutions, where placement work tends to concentrate at the senior end of the team.
The role is intended as a foundational training period for a high-calibre individual entering capital placement at the most exposed point of the work. The bar is set deliberately. The firm expects that, given the depth of mandate exposure and the seniority of the practitioners alongside whom Analysts work, progression will be faster and more substantive than the comparable position at a larger institution.
What This Role Demands
- Precision under time pressure; placement materials are reviewed by principals on the buy-side for whom imprecision is disqualifying
- Genuine intellectual engagement with the strategies, structures, and jurisdictions involved in private-market capital deployment
- Discretion as default behaviour; placement work is confidential by design and the firm expects junior team members to hold the same standard as senior practitioners
- Self-direction; the role expects ownership of workstreams and active anticipation of what the next step in a process requires
- Comfort operating across time zones, with allocator engagement spanning every region in which the firm has presence
Requirements
- 1–3 years' experience in investment banking, principal investing, transaction services, or a directly relevant practice
- Exceptional academic record from a leading institution
- Demonstrated proficiency in financial modelling, valuation analysis, and the preparation of confidential professional materials
- Strong written and verbal communication; fluency across formal and conversational registers
- Demonstrated ability to manage confidential information with discretion
- Right to work in the United States
