INVESTMENT ASSOCIATE JOB DESCRIPTION

An Investment Associate evaluates whether capital moves toward an opportunity or away from it. That judgment call, made consistently and well, is what this seat produces. The role owns financial modeling, due diligence coordination, and Investment Committee materials for a fund or corporate investment vehicle operating across private equity, venture capital, or infrastructure asset classes.
