Investment Director - Private markets (Private Equity / Real Estate)

Select Alternative Investments is a Direct Investment Platform that provides access to private market opportunities across Private Equity, Real Estate, and Venture Capital. We co-invest alongside our investors and provide exposure to proprietary deal sourcing.

Unlike traditional private equity managers with dedicated asset-class teams and an operational focus, we operate as a capital provider—partnering with best-in-class sponsors, developers, and managers to drive operational value. Our model emphasizes sourcing, structuring, and strategic control & oversight of private direct investments across the capital structure.

All investments are structured in-house by our team of investment professionals located in Singapore, Zurich, Vienna, and Ho Chi Minh City.

To support our continued growth, we are looking for a self-driven, senior investment professional to lead deal sourcing and execution, while maintaining oversight of portfolio investments in collaboration with our operating partners.

Underwriting, Structuring & Execution

• Lead due diligence processes with internal and external advisors across legal, tax, and technical domains.

Platform Development

• Contribute to refining the investment process, playbooks, and internal reporting frameworks.
• Mentor junior team members and support scalable team processes.

• 8 - 15 years of relevant experience in private equity, direct investments, structured finance, investment banking, or principal investing roles.
• Demonstrated track record of sourcing and executing private market deals—in the U.S. and/or Europe.
• Deep industry network within one or more verticals (e.g., real estate, industrials, software, etc).
• Strong financial modelling, structuring, and negotiation skills.
