Investment Manager, Entrepreneurial Buy & Build Investor, Stockholm, Sweden

About our client Our client is an ambitious, entrepreneurial private equity firm headquartered in Stockholm, investing in lower mid-market companies across the Nordics. Founded by a senior team with a long track record at a leading Nordic buyout firm, they have built an impressive portfolio in a short space of time and are well capitalised for the next phase of growth. Their focus is on niche industrials and business services. They back traditional, resilient businesses and partner closely with founders and management teams to build market leaders through buy-and-build. The vast majority of their investments to date have been proprietary, reflecting a genuine origination-led culture. With a lean, hands-on team, flat structure and clear path to progression, this is a fantastic opportunity to take real ownership of transactions and portfolio companies early in your career.
