Job Description

Principal, Private Equity, Value Creation | Digital Infrastructure Investments |

New York, Chicago, or San Francisco

We're retained by a leading global alternative asset manager to hire a Principal within its Digital Infrastructure Value Creation team, reporting to the Head of of the group.

About the Platform

The firm has incubated several leading digital infrastructure platforms, including one of the market's largest hyperscale data center platforms and a second, faster-growing digital infrastructure platform.

• Helping shape and execute growth strategies across both platforms
• Staying close to live deal activity , weighing in on pricing, underwriting and structuring as new investments and bolt-ons come through
• Supporting a significant new fundraise , with both platforms expected to be highly active across bolt-on acquisitions and new development
• Acting as a key link between the investment team and portfolio company leadership, ensuring strategy is clearly articulated and management teams remain aligned and accountable
• Weighing in on portfolio company engagement more broadly - helping ensure the platforms are set up for success

Candidate Profile

• 9+ years experience
• Investment background, ideally within digital infrastructure or a related infrastructure sector
• First-hand experience with operating businesses and strong platform-level judgment
• Based in or open to New York, Chicago, or San Francisco

This is an exceptional opportunity to sit at the center of one of the market's leading digital infrastructure investment platforms - combining direct portfolio company leadership with a genuine seat at the table on investment decisions and platform strategy, with a clear path to MD as the remit grows global.
