Alternative Investments

We partner with alternative investment managers to recruit senior investment, portfolio, and operating talent across private markets and specialized strategies. Our work spans firms at different stages of growth from emerging managers building institutional infrastructure to established platforms navigating scale, succession, and markets. 


We understand the nuances of alternative investment careers with incentive alignment, carry structures, investment committee dynamics, and the balance between sourcing, underwriting, and portfolio management. 


Our Experience

Our Experience 

We advise GPs, founders, and investment leaders across a broad range of alternative asset classes, including: 


  • Private Equity and Growth Equity 
  • Private Credit, Direct Lending, and Specialty Finance 
  • Real Assets, Infrastructure, and Energy 
  • Hedge Funds and Liquid Alternatives 
  • Secondaries and Structured Capital 
  • Family Offices and Hybrid Investment Platforms\ 

Our Differentiated Approach

Alternative investing is relationship-driven and reputation-sensitive. Our approach reflects that reality. We provide: 


  • Discreet access to high-caliber, often off-market talent 
  • Assessment of investment skill, attribution, and role fit 
  • Market intelligence on compensation, carry, and organizational design 
  • A long-term perspective on team construction and succession planning 


We act as a strategic partner to our clients, helping them think through not just who to hire, but how that hire fits into the firm’s broader evolution. 


Talent decisions in alternative investments have lasting consequences. The right leader can compound value over a decade. The wrong one can erode trust internally and externally. 

We help firms make thoughtful, durable hiring decisions grounded in insight, discretion, and deep sector expertise.
