As a preferred co‑investor they are actively involved in buyside processes of companies all over Europe.

This position will particularly focus on reviewing and executing fund investment and direct co‑investment opportunities, often working jointly with the underlying General Partner in a hybrid role and therefore offers the chance for very close exposure to commercial and operational tasks.

• Taking an active role in the team by bringing up new ideas, participating in investment discussions and improving processes from lessons learned to make the team better each day.
