Managing Director Multinational Investment Bank, USA

The Challenge

The role required someone with:

  • Deep private credit and mid-market direct lending experience
  • A proven fundraising track record with major institutional investors
  • An established network across PE-backed lending

This was made even more of a challenge by a
highly competitive U.S. talent market, with the
need to identify someone who aligned with their
long-term growth plans.

Our Solution

We leveraged our specialist private credit network, built through years of working directly with senior leaders across core specialisms. We provided:

  • Precision market mapping of senior talent across
    New York, Chicago and Boston
  • Assessment of technical expertise, strategic
    alignment and cultural fit, ensuring candidates could thrive in a high-visibility, entrepreneurial team inside a large institution
  • Direct, relationship-based access to passive MD-level
    candidates not actively engaging with other recruiters

The Result

The role was filled in under a month, with the Managing Director bringing over a decade of private credit origination experience, strong institutional fundraising credentials, and a network fully aligned with the bank’s middle-market strategy.
