Job Description
Join a collaborative, high-performing investment research team where your work directly influences institutional capital allocation. This role offers a unique opportunity to become a core contributor to private equity manager due diligence, partnering closely with experienced investors to evaluate leading managers across buyout, growth, and venture strategies.
From day one, you’ll take ownership of the end-to-end due diligence process—sourcing new manager ideas, analyzing track records and investment attribution, leading manager meetings and on-site visits, and producing rigorous research that informs investment committee decisions. You’ll build deep relationships with general partners, manage an active research pipeline, and maintain ongoing coverage of portfolio managers and upcoming fundraises.
This position is ideal for someone eager to deepen their expertise in private markets while gaining hands-on exposure to institutional-quality investment processes. You’ll work in a highly collaborative environment, engage directly with top-tier private equity managers, and support a sophisticated client base that includes endowments, foundations, and family offices. The role is based in Portsmouth, NH or Boston, offering flexibility in location and meaningful opportunities for professional growth.

- Lead comprehensive due diligence processes on private equity managers, including analysis of manager organizations, investment strategies, track records, and portfolio performance

- Prepare clear and comprehensive investment reports with recommendations based on qualitative and quantitative analysis, incorporating insights from manager interactions and due diligence findings
- Monitor existing managers on an ongoing basis through attending annual meetings, general updates, and maintaining regular communication to track performance and strategic developments
- Communicate market intelligence and investment ideas to internal teams and clients, presenting investment opportunities and market trends in a clear and actionable format
- Support client private equity implementation processes, including portfolio construction analysis, manager selection processes, and fund recommendations tailored to client objectives
- Manage information flow between managers, clients, and internal teams to ensure seamless communication and decision-making processes
