Purpose of the Position:
Reporting to the Principal in the International Private Wealth team, which is part of the broader Investor Relations department, this is a unique opportunity to play a key role in the product development of new product initiatives and supporting business development activity across our international teams (ex. US).
The role is to lead the research, analysis, and development of new and existing products for Pantheon’s private equity, private debt, infrastructure, and real assets strategies. Additionally, the successful candidate will have a key role to play in servicing existing clients and developing new business from existing and new relationships.
Key Responsibilities:
New Fund Launches
- Drive the end-to-end process of launching new funds, from concept development to implementation, ensuring alignment with organizational goals and market needs.
- Partner with cross-functional teams, including investment, legal, compliance, risk, and marketing, to craft fund strategies, structures, and required documentation.
- Perform in-depth market analysis and due diligence to uncover opportunities and assess the viability of new fund ideas.
Stakeholder/Project Management
- Assist in developing and managing project plans and provide updates to senior leadership, recommending process improvements as necessary.
- Support senior team members in coordinating the comprehensive scope of product development, including operations, technology, marketing, and finance, fostering collaboration with these departments.

- Work closely with internal teams to align partnership initiatives with broader business strategies.

While the externally facing part of the role will involve attending meetings, a material amount of this work will be internally facing (co-ordination with the Relationship Managers as well as marketing, operations, investment, and legal teams) and much of the investor contact will be conducted by phone and email.
