The Director plays a critical role on the investment team. Reporting into a Managing Director, you will be involved in all aspects of the business including identifying and meeting with high potential companies, negotiating deals and the ongoing management of the investment portfolio. You will build strong relationships with the portfolio companies and act as a trusted advisor post-investment to ensure their ongoing growth and success. You will also assume a role on the investment committee, providing input on investment decisions and the strategic direction of the funds.
