Senior Vice President Capital Raise

Senior Vice President, Capital Formation
About the Company
Our client is a privately held, West Coast focused real estate development and investment platform focused primarily on distinctive, mid size to larger scale multifamily and mixed use residential projects throughout Southern California.
The firm is involved across the full investment and development lifecycle, including acquisition, development, financing, capitalization, and execution of residential communities. Its strategy is centered on developing high quality housing while creating attractive long term value for investors and capital partners.
As the company continues to expand its development pipeline, it is seeking a senior capital formation professional to lead equity raising efforts and deepen relationships with family offices, private investors, registered investment advisers, institutional allocators, and strategic capital partners.
