Funds and investment management laterals, recruited nationwide.
Fund formation, secondaries, and adviser regulation are close cousins, and the right move depends on which one fills your week.
Mapping your funds practice.
We ask about the funds you have worked on, sponsor or investor side, the strategies involved, and the regulatory questions you handle. From there Lateral Lock knows what kind of funds group to look for.
- Targeting the right groups.Drafting a private-equity limited partnership agreement, working a secondaries transaction, and advising a registered adviser are three different funds records. Hedge, credit, and real-asset strategies are screened separately again. We build the list around your experience and goals.
- Due diligence on firms.We read up on how each funds group is organized, which sponsors and investors it serves, and whether its practice is expanding into the strategies you know.
- Accurate materials.We order the resume the way a funds group reads one: strategy, sponsor or investor side, then formation, secondaries, or regulatory advice. You approve every resume edit before the resume goes out. A short cover letter leads with the work that firm prioritizes and goes out with the submission unless you ask to see it first.
- A confidential process.We introduce you only to firms you authorize, prepare you for each interview, and help negotiate the final terms.
The search follows the practice.
