VP Capital Formation

One capital relationship, three ways to be useful. You will serve the same investor as a fund LP, a deal co-investor, and an acquisition counterparty. About Us EPL Group Advisory is an independent M&A and capital markets firm. We have advised on more than $900 million in transactions. We work with Seed and Series A+ scale-ups in B2B technology and manufacturing, and with independent sponsors, SPVs, and VC managers raising capital for their vehicles. Over half our deals are cross-border. We take a small number of clients at a time so senior partners stay involved from signature to close. EPL Group operates through Finalis Securities LLC, an SEC-registered broker-dealer and FINRA member. The Role You will own capital relationships across both branches of the firm. M&A Advisory: buyer and capital coverage on sell-side and buy-side mandates. Investment Vehicles: capital formation for VC funds, independent sponsor deal equity, and SPV syndication. You will cover institutional allocators, direct-investing family offices, and wealth intermediaries including RIAs and advisor networks. The wealth channel is early for us. You are hired to build it, not inherit it. We have no proprietary fund to distribute. You are not wholesaling a shelf.

Who You Are A principal, not a passenger. You are comfortable alone in the room with a CIO or an investment committee. You are an educator before you are a salesperson. You say early when a mandate is not fundable. You want a small firm where your contribution is visible, and you accept there is no platform to hide behind. Partner-level exposure, ownership of the firm's capital relationships, attractive performance-driven variable compensation (revenue-sharing role only), cross-border reach, and the opportunity to build our wealth channel from scratch. Send your CV and a note on your capital relationships and one mandate you drove from origination to close. All inquiries confidential. EPL Group Advisory is an equal opportunity employer.
