Business Development Director - Alternative Investment Fund Management

If you're in the alternative fund management space & are considering a new business development role, where you'll have the autonomy to make your own decisions, future progression prospects & a strong uncapped earning potential, then this could be a great move for you.

I've been engaged on this Business Development Director opportunity by an independent, well-established AIFM firm, based in Mayfair, who offer a range of fund management, administration & depositary services to Private Equity & Real Estate fund managers.

Basic salary: £100k - £130k (dependent on experience), double+ OTE (uncapped)

They're looking to add a Business Development Director to the team in a newly-created role, who they'd like to build out their private equity business (they'd be open to those with a strong real estate network too).

• Your role will be a client-facing deal origination position, where you'll utilise both your existing network & look to develop new contacts to build long-lasting relationships & drive new business opportunities.
• You'll be central to the pitch process & RFPs where required, as well as having an influence over the marketing collateral & initiatives.
• You will also work closely with a BD Associate, who you will coach & mentor - so previous managerial experience would be advantageous.

They're a growing business & as such, they're looking for someone who is on an upward career trajectory, as whilst they're smaller in stature to some of their competitors, there will be progression opportunities in the future.

You'd also benefit from an excellent working culture, which is demonstrated both by the tenure of their employees & from the exemplary feedback that we've had from candidates that we've already placed with them. They positively embrace new ideas, so if you feel that you're currently stifled with how you can go about your role, this business could be a breath of fresh air.

So, if you have experience of winning new business within fund management, with excellent relationship-building skills & a team-first attitude, please apply immediately.
