About Us
We are an entrepreneurial private investment platform acquiring and operating both real estate assets and privately held businesses.
Our real estate strategy focuses primarily on multifamily, industrial, and neighborhood retail properties. Our private equity strategy focuses on established, profitable operating companies across service businesses, healthcare, logistics, distribution, and other fragmented industries.
We move quickly, underwrite rigorously, and value professionals who combine analytical strength with practical judgment, intellectual curiosity, and an ownership mentality.
This is a fully remote position for a professional based in Colombia. The successful candidate must be able to collaborate closely with a U.S.-based investment team and maintain substantial overlap with U.S. Eastern Time business hours.
Please note:
This is not an engineering, appraisal, brokerage, or purely asset-management position. Candidates must have direct transaction experience in private equity, investment banking, real estate investments, corporate development, or another investment-focused organization.
