This is a senior, high trust role to help translate LLR’s investment approach and value-creation capabilities into clear fundraising strategy and compelling communications for current and prospective investors, while building the operating discipline required for a scalable IR function. The role combines complex project leadership and content development with direct Limited Partner (LP), consultant, and placement-agent engagement.

Accountabilities

• Partner with the Head of Investor Relations on the integrated plan for LLR’s next fundraising cycle, including priorities, workplans, milestones, and cross-functional execution.


• Own a meaningful coverage lane with selected LPs, consultants, placement agents, and other capital partners; build trusted relationships and coordinate timely, tailored communications.


• Oversee complex investor materials, fundraising narratives, presentations, DDQs and RFPs, analyses, and other content that requires sound judgment, strong writing, and careful synthesis.


• Create a reliable operating cadence across Investor Relations, Finance, Legal, the investment team, Value Creation, and external providers, with clear ownership, deadlines, approvals, and version control.


• Strengthen the team’s systems, CRM discipline, pipeline visibility, reporting, and repeatable processes as LLR continues to grow.


• Help shape team priorities, ways of working, and development while concurrently supporting the quality and consistency of the firm’s investor-facing work.

Skills and Requirements

• 10+ years of experience in investor relations, capital formation, placement advisory, private-markets consulting, asset management, or a related private-markets role.


• Experience working with institutional investors, LPs, consultants, fund managers, senior executives, or other sophisticated stakeholders.


• Exceptional writing, editing, presentation, analytical, and project-management skills, with the ability to move from strategy to details without losing either.


• Working fluency in private-markets concepts, including fund structures, commitments, capital calls and distributions, portfolio performance, and fundraising processes.


• Sound judgment, discretion, responsiveness, and the ability to represent LLR credibly with senior internal and external audiences.


• A collaborative, low-ego working style and the ability to lead through influence across a team and firm with multiple priorities.


• Willingness to work in LLR’s Philadelphia office and up to 50% travel as required.
