Managing Director, Private Equity

The Company is seeking a Managing Director of Private Equity to lead a significant portion of its investment portfolio, with a primary focus on private markets and selective opportunities in public markets. The role involves sourcing and evaluating investment managers, building long-term partnerships, leading underwriting, and presenting well-supported recommendations to senior investment leadership and the investment committee. The Managing Director will assess how investment decisions affect portfolio returns, liquidity, diversification, concentration, pacing, risk, fees, and opportunity cost. Responsibilities also include shaping private-market strategy, communicating investment views clearly, negotiating with managers, and mentoring investment professionals. Candidates should bring approximately 15–20 years of investment industry experience, including 10–15 years in private-market investing, with meaningful decision ownership as an institutional allocator. Broad experience evaluating buyout, growth, venture, and related strategies is required, along with a strong record of sourcing, underwriting, and maintaining manager relationships. Applicants should demonstrate sound portfolio-allocation judgment, strong written and verbal communication, credibility with external managers and peers, and the ability to develop investment talent. A collaborative, mission-oriented approach, long-term perspective, and ability to combine qualitative and quantitative analysis are essential.
