About The Position

Looking for an established senior investment leader to help build and lead Partners Group’s growth equity team in the US. Reporting directly to Ben Breier (Head of Private Equity, Health and Life), your focus will lie primarily on healthcare minority growth investments (Series B+ with check sizes starting at $30M and scaling up to $200M) but also work on occasional control buyouts ($1B+ checks) globally. The team will be targeting companies that have achieved product market fit and momentum with a near-term path to profitability. The goal would be to deploy $500M per year to build the growth portfolio but could grow beyond this with success. This role will leverage your deep expertise in healthcare growth investing to identify transformative healthcare opportunities (pharma services, healthcare delivery, specialty pharma, healthcare IT, life sciences tools, and med tech), lead due diligence and build trust with management teams and founders. As a key platform architect, you'll also contribute to overall strategy and team development, collaborating closely with the broader PE direct team, 200-person team, and global growth team. They aim to transition from participating to leading rounds, actively shaping the market, and attracting top-tier companies through proactive, thematic deal origination and leadership in investment rounds. This is a pivotal role for an ambitious builder ready to help shape the future of their growth platform.
