With full ownership of your book of business, you’ll be involved from end‑to‑end client engagements to ensure the project is going smoothly, sell follow‑on work, and expand the client relationship. This role is ideal for a seasoned sales or client development professional who deeply understands the Private Equity ecosystem and thrives in complex, high‑stakes environments.
