Equi is seeking an exceptional investment professional to lead our manager due diligence process and oversee critical investment/operational responsibilities across our fund of funds and multi-strategy hedge fund platforms. This executive role encompasses two key areas of responsibility.

The first involves strategic leadership of our manager sourcing operations, where you'll work directly with the Chief Investment Officer (CIO) and investment leadership team. You will be instrumental in designing and implementing strategic frameworks as we scale our rapidly growing assets under management (AUM).

The second area focuses on managing the operational aspects of our investment vehicles, including liquidity management, portfolio allocation, and optimization across investment strategies. This includes ensuring optimal capital deployment, managing investment vehicle cash flows, and implementing strategic portfolio construction frameworks.

This is an exceptional opportunity for a rapidly ascending investment leader passionate about both the art and science of investing. You will be a key member of the leadership team committed to developing transformative financial products at Equi, with potential to develop internal investment strategies as your role evolves.

  • Oversee liquidity management across fund structures, ensuring optimal cash positioning and redemption capacity

  • Direct portfolio construction and optimization processes to achieve target risk/return profiles while maintaining appropriate diversification

  • Manage capital allocation decisions across investment strategies and vehicles

Assist: what will this person be involved in, or collaborating with other individuals + teams on?

  • Partner with C-suite executives to align investment strategy with overall corporate objectives

  • Collaborate with legal and compliance leadership to establish governance frameworks for investment vehicles and external manager relationships

  • Work strategically with product and engineering leadership to develop proprietary technology platforms for portfolio management, liquidity forecasting, and risk analytics

  • Lead portfolio optimization decisions and strategic capital allocation across investment strategies

  • Provide executive guidance on new product development initiatives

  • Partner with sales, operations, finance, legal and compliance on strategic product launches

  • Serve as an investment thought leader representing the firm with key stakeholders

  • Work with fund administrators and custodians to ensure seamless operational execution

Knowledge: what experience does this person need to possess?

  • 3-5+ years of progressive experience evaluating alternative investments, with significant focus on hedge funds or liquid alternatives, either as a senior allocator (fund of funds, hedge fund, pension plan, family office, etc.) or in a director-level advisor/consultant role

  • 3-5+ years of experience in portfolio management, risk, liquidity management, or trading

  • Proven track record of successful capital allocation decisions and manager selection

  • Deep understanding of fund structures, liquidity terms, and operational requirements across alternative investment vehicles

  • Experience managing complex portfolio construction and optimization processes

  • Superior analytical capabilities and exceptional executive communication skills

  • Demonstrated leadership ability with experience building and managing high-performing investment teams
