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
