A well-established investment firm is looking for an experienced European Business Development professional to join their team and work closely with a senior sales leader as part of a long-term growth plan. They are looking to move quickly and will prioritise candidates with a short notice period or who are immediately available.

Rather than a purely transactional sales role, this position combines relationship management, business development and strategic follow-up. You will operate across public market strategies within a flat, entrepreneurial environment, benefitting from close collaboration, broad product exposure and meaningful long-term commercial upside.

Key Responsibilities

1. Partner with a senior sales leader to manage and grow a European institutional and wholesale client base.
2. Build, deepen and maintain long-term relationships with pension funds, insurers, asset owners, intermediaries and professional investors.
3. Support ongoing business origination through strategic follow-up, account management and high-quality client servicing.
4. Represent a broad investment platform across both liquid and illiquid strategies, tailoring solutions to client needs.
5. Identify and develop growth opportunities across underrepresented European regions.

What We’re Looking For

1. An experienced sales professional operating at Senior VP or Director level, with a strong European client track record. Experience in Southern Europe or Benelux region is advantageous
2. Proven experience within asset management, private banking or investment solutions.
3. Fluency in at least one European language is essential; additional languages are advantageous.
4. Demonstrable experience covering European institutional and/or wholesale investors.
5. A self-directed, commercially minded individual who thrives in an entrepreneurial, partnership-oriented environment.
6. Familiarity with both public and private market strategies, alongside a collaborative and long-term approach to client development.
