Why this seat is hard to fill.

Investor relations at a mid-sized fund is mostly precision under deadline. Quarterly reporting packs, due diligence questionnaires that ask the same question forty different ways, capital-call and distribution notices that must reach the right contact with the right figure, and a CRM that is only useful if someone keeps it clean. The people who do this well learned it at a fund or a fund administrator, and they are trusted with investor data because they have never made the mistake that loses that trust.

How we reach them.

  • Every search starts with the investor relations associates who are in the seat right now, in Medellín, Bogotá, Buenos Aires, and Mexico City. Funds keep their investor relations people through fundraise after fundraise, because every limited partner knows them by name.
  • We reach them by warm intro, prior-network referral, and a researched personal email. Never a job post, never a recruiter blast.
  • Eight active searches a month, so the outreach stays personal enough that someone with a job reads it.

How we check them.

  • A written exercise: a short limited-partner update drafted from a page of quarter-end notes, checked for tone, accuracy, and any claim the notes did not support.
  • A questionnaire exercise: ten due diligence questions answered from a sample response library, with the two that need a partner's judgment flagged instead of guessed.
  • The same scorecard and reference checks we run on our own hires, with references from the people who actually managed them. We put forward only people we would hire ourselves.

Want the hire trained to run AI in the seat? We offer that as a separate, optional bootcamp — priced on its own, never bundled into the placement fee.

We say no more often than we say yes.

  • Quarter-end reporting and questionnaire season pull your CFO or a partner into assembly work.
  • Your investor CRM is out of date and nobody owns fixing it.
  • You are heading into a fundraise and need the back office of investor relations held steady.
  • You need someone to lead fundraising conversations with limited partners.
  • You are looking for a placement agent to raise the fund.
  • You will not share investor data with anyone outside the US office.
