About the Role

This role exists to build and run an institutional-grade family office function that sits directly behind Peter Rex personally and the broader Rex portfolio. You will own the relationships, structures, and strategy that keep capital flowing, credit secured, and tax exposure minimized. This role reports to the Director of Investments and operates at the intersection of banking, credit, tax, and portfolio strategy, serving as the direct point of contact with creditors, banks, and financial institutions on structuring and securing assets and credit for active deal flow.

You will own tax strategy from the ground up, doing the analytical and preparatory work yourself and reserving outside experts for genuinely novel or high-complexity questions, with an explicit mandate to reduce reliance on paid advisory relationships over time. You will build fluency across a wide range of asset types, including real estate, credit facilities, operating businesses, and personal holdings, to determine when a problem should be solved internally versus escalated to a CPA, banker, attorney, or broker.

This is a foundational hire for a function that starts narrow, with PE deal-making and portfolio needs, and is expected to expand across every Rex vertical as trust and scope grow. It is a hands-on, execution-heavy seat: you are expected to do the work, not just manage people who do it. Given direct, ongoing access to Peter Rex's personal financial, credit, and tax information, this role requires absolute discretion and will be conditioned on executing a comprehensive confidentiality and non-disclosure agreement prior to start.

Responsibilities

  • Own and manage capital and credit relationships with banks, creditors, and financial institutions that back Rex's active deal flow.
  • Structure and negotiate credit facilities and asset-backed financing directly with lenders and institutional counterparties.
  • Own tax strategy end to end for Peter Rex personally and the businesses he backs, from routine filings to complex structuring questions.
  • Determine when a tax, credit, or structuring question can be resolved in-house versus when it requires outside expertise, and manage those outside relationships (CPAs, tax attorneys, bankers, brokers) when engaged.
  • Build and maintain working knowledge of trusts, estates, and personal wealth structures relevant to the family office.
  • Track and reduce reliance on outside advisory spend by building internal capability year over year.
  • Partner with the PE deal-making team to support capital and credit needs across acquisitions, refinances, and portfolio-level transactions.
  • Maintain meticulous, audit-ready documentation across all credit, tax, and structuring work, and safeguard the confidentiality of all personal and business financial information encountered in the course of the role.
  • Serve as a discreet, trusted advisor to the Director of Investments and Peter Rex on personal and business-adjacent financial matters.
  • Expand the family office function's scope methodically across additional Rex verticals as the role matures.
  • Exercise independent judgment to push back on outside bankers, CPAs, brokers, or counsel when their guidance doesn't serve the best outcome for the family office.

Requirements

  • 5 to 10 years of experience in a sophisticated UHNW, family office, private bank, or comparable environment with direct exposure to credit, capital structuring, and tax work.
  • Real, hands-on tax expertise across a range of complexity, not just oversight of outside preparers.
  • Broad exposure across asset classes, including real estate, credit, and operating business structures.
  • Familiarity with trusts and estates.
  • Demonstrated ability to negotiate directly with banks, creditors, and financial institutions.
  • Strong judgment on when to solve a problem in-house versus escalate to outside counsel, a CPA, a banker, or a broker.
  • Comfortable rolling up their sleeves and doing the brunt of technical work personally, while knowing when to delegate.
  • Absolute discretion and proven personal financial discipline; willingness to execute a comprehensive confidentiality and non-disclosure agreement given direct access to Peter Rex's personal financial information.
  • Genuinely humble operator: no hero-ball, no self-protective behavior, singularly focused on the best outcome for the family office.
  • Meticulous, proactive, with excellent follow-through on multi-threaded, long-cycle work.
  • Missionary mindset with full alignment to Rex's mission and comfort operating in a fast-scaling, high-trust environment.

  • Fewer, More Capable: Bias to as lean of a team as possible, with the highest competency, reducing communication and coordination, creating more effectiveness.
