Asset Management - Special Situations & Portfolio Analytics
Mondrian Alpha, New York, NY, United States
A growing private investment firm is looking to hire an experienced asset manager into a team focused on complex and non-performing credit situations.
This is a hands‑on role centred on protecting and enhancing value across a portfolio of investments that require active management—whether due to financial underperformance, structural issues, or broader market pressures.
You’ll be working closely with deal teams and external stakeholders to navigate challenging scenarios and drive outcomes.
What You’ll Be Doing Deep‑Dive Asset Reviews
Conduct thorough analysis of portfolio companies facing financial stress, identifying key risks across liquidity, leverage, and operational performance
Build a clear picture of where value sits within the capital structure and what levers are available
Action Planning & Execution
Develop practical strategies for stabilising or repositioning investments, ranging from covenant resets through to full restructuring or exit
Take an active role in implementing agreed plans, ensuring momentum is maintained and outcomes are delivered
Managing Complexity
Work through situations involving multiple lenders, sponsors, and advisors, helping to align interests and move negotiations forward
Support or lead discussions around amendments, waivers, and broader restructuring terms
Maintain close visibility on asset performance, tracking developments against expectations and escalating issues early
Engage regularly with management teams and counterparties to stay ahead of emerging risks
Insight & Communication
Translate detailed analysis into clear, commercially relevant updates for internal stakeholders
Contribute to investor materials and internal reviews, articulating both risks and opportunities
Partner with investment professionals, legal teams, and other functions to ensure a coordinated approach to asset management
Help refine processes and frameworks as the platform continues to evolve
What We’re Looking For
Experience within private credit, restructuring, or asset management, ideally with exposure to stressed or event‑driven situations
Strong understanding of how credit investments behave under pressure, including documentation, covenants, and capital structure dynamics
Solid financial modelling and analytical capability
Comfortable operating in situations where there isn’t a clear playbook
Profile
Commercially minded, with the ability to balance analysis and action
Confident dealing with multiple stakeholders in sensitive situations
Able to manage several live workstreams without losing attention to detail
Proactive, adaptable, and comfortable in a fast‑moving environment
Why This Role
Direct involvement in the most interesting and challenging assets in the portfolio
Opportunity to influence outcomes rather than just monitor performance
Broad exposure across sectors and deal types
A team that values ownership, speed, and clear thinking
