Analyst, Capital Placement

About the role

The firm is recruiting an Analyst to support its Capital Placement practice. The role works across the full lifecycle of placement engagements — origination, materials preparation, investor mapping, due diligence coordination, and close. Analysts are embedded directly in live mandates from day one and work alongside senior practitioners and the firm's principals. The firm advises ultra-high-net-worth families, single-family offices, sovereign investors, and founder-led enterprises on capital placement across private equity, private credit, real estate, infrastructure, and venture capital. The role provides exposure to a wide spectrum of asset classes and jurisdictions, and direct contact with the firm's investor network across 37 territories. This is a career-defining apprenticeship for a high-calibre individual at the start of their career. The expectation is precision, discretion, and a willingness to take ownership. Ladd & Co. is a private advisory and investment firm acting for principals, families, and private institutions across M&A, capital placement, structuring, and related mandates. The firm is family owned, operates across nine cities, and does not advertise its work. Clients come to us on a name, and they stay for generations.
