About EPL Group – Advisory

EPL Group is a multidisciplinary platform combining investment, advisory, and operational expertise. The Advisory branch of EPL Group delivers independent, senior-level advice to founders, family offices, and private investors on complex capital raising and strategic transactions. We focus on providing tailored, unconflicted financial advice to clients navigating growth, liquidity events, or balance sheet optimization.

About the Role

EPL Advisory is seeking a Managing Director to lead private debt capital raising efforts, with a strong focus on sourcing capital from family offices and private equity firms. This individual contributor role involves originating and executing bespoke private debt transactions, structuring creative financing solutions, and cultivating a robust network of sophisticated capital providers. The ideal candidate brings deep connectivity to the private capital markets and a strategic approach to middle-market debt advisory.

**Market Coverage and Relationship Building**

*   Maintain and grow a high-quality network of family offices, private equity sponsors, and private credit investors who are actively interested in lending or co-investing.
*   Stay abreast of market terms, capital availability, and investor appetite across sectors and structures.

**Client Advisory**

*   Advise clients on capital structure strategies, optimal debt sizing, and market positioning.
*   Serve as a trusted advisor to company founders and financial sponsors throughout the fundraising process.

**Business Development**

*   Originate new mandates by leveraging personal network and supporting EPL’s broader advisory relationships.
*   Represent EPL Advisory in the market to enhance brand visibility and attract new clients and capital partners.

**Transaction Execution**

*   Lead full execution lifecycle: from mandate to term sheet negotiation to closing.
*   Coordinate internal resources and manage communications between clients, investors, and legal teams.

## Requirements

*   Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Economics, or Business; MBA or advanced degree preferred.
*   10+ years of experience in debt capital markets, private credit, investment banking, or capital advisory.
*   Demonstrated track record of successfully raising private debt capital, particularly from non-traditional sources.
*   Deep relationships with family offices, private equity firms, and alternative credit providers.
*   Must hold active FINRA Series 79 and Series 63 licenses (or be willing to obtain promptly upon hire).
*   Excellent communication, structuring, and negotiation skills.
*   Entrepreneurial and highly self-directed, with strong execution capabilities.

## Benefits
