Our next frontier is elevating portfolio monitoring and building a disciplined, proactive liquidity function. The market for secondary transactions is evolving quickly, and our scale requires greater structure, visibility, and leadership around when and how we return capital. This senior leader will oversee and drive our overall liquidity strategy, leading the team responsible for monitoring our portfolio, identifying exit pathways, and preparing and evaluating opportunities. While this role is closely involved in transactions, the emphasis is on strategy, governance, prioritization, and team leadership rather than direct execution. The mandate: bring a more intentional, repeatable, and forward-looking approach to liquidity by bridging our acquisition engine with a stronger, more reliable exit engine.  This is a hybrid role with an expectation of M/T/Th/F in the office. <h3>What You’ll Do </h3> Liquidity Strategy & Execution Oversight <ul> <li style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Lead the overall liquidity and exit strategy, setting priorities and guiding the team on preparation, structuring options, and recommended pathways.</li> <li style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Oversee the sourcing and evaluation of secondary sales and other liquidity routes (e.g., structured solutions, emerging digital or alternative platforms).</li> <li style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Maintain a dynamic, ranked pipeline of exit opportunities by company and expected timing.</li> <li>Oversee the “Exit Memo” process;
