VP - Private Capital Markets - Elite Boutique

Our client is one of the world's leading independent advisory firms, advising corporates, financial sponsors and institutional investors on their most complex strategic and financing decisions. With a significant and growing private capital advisory capability alongside its core M&A practice, the firm is well positioned at the intersection of traditional advisory and the fast-growing private capital markets - including GP-led secondaries, continuation vehicles and co-investment solutions.

This hire sits within the firm's Growth & Financial Sponsors team in London. The team works across private capital raising and sponsor coverage, partnering with some of the most active financial sponsors and growth investors in the technology sector globally.

The role

At VP level, you will work directly with the senior partner on the origination and execution of private capital mandates — including growth equity raises, GP-led secondaries, continuation vehicles and co-investment programmes. Alongside execution, you will play a meaningful role in sponsor and investor coverage, building relationships with a blue-chip PE and growth investor client base active in the technology space across Europe and the US. This is an execution and relationship role in equal measure.

What the firm offers

The firm's sponsor relationships are among the deepest of any independent advisory firm globally, with direct connectivity between the London and New York platforms providing meaningful cross-border deal flow across the sectors. The firm's independence - no balance sheet conflict, no financing agenda - is a genuine differentiator in sponsor conversations. For a VP looking to build origination credentials in a high-growth coverage area, this is a compelling platform at the right moment in the market cycle.

What we're looking for

• VP level with 5–8 years of experience in financial sponsors coverage, private capital advisory, growth equity advisory or fund placement at an investment bank, specialist advisory firm or placement agent
• Strong understanding of the FinTech and/or technology sector - deal flow, key sponsors and growth investors, valuation dynamics and the private capital structures commonly used in the space
• Existing sponsor or investor relationships in the technology ecosystem are advantageous but not required
• Highly commercial, with the drive to operate in a lean, partner-led environment where individual contribution is visible and rewarded
