About the role

Private equity is a core growth channel for Fazeshift. A single sponsor relationship can create opportunities across an entire portfolio, but scaling that motion requires more than traditional outbound. It requires understanding a sponsor’s investment strategy, identifying the portfolio companies where Fazeshift can create measurable value, finding the right operating and finance leaders, and developing a compelling reason to engage.

What they're looking for

  • Have 1–3 years of experience in investment banking, private equity, growth equity, consulting, transaction services, investing, or another analytical and client-facing environment
  • Understand how private equity firms evaluate businesses and drive value across their portfolios. You should be comfortable discussing working capital, cash flow, operating leverage, and value creation with an investor or CFO
  • Can look at a PE firm’s portfolio and quickly develop a thoughtful view on which companies are most relevant for Fazeshift, why they are relevant, and who is likely to care
  • Are commercially minded. You enjoy finding an angle, opening a relationship, and turning research into action rather than stopping at the analysis
  • Are comfortable with outbound and rejection. Building new relationships is a meaningful part of this role, and you should be energized by creating opportunities rather than waiting for them to arrive
  • Write exceptionally well. Your outreach should be short, specific, and demonstrate that you understand the person and company you are contacting
