GIC Private Equity

We deploy capital in areas where we can utilize our comparative advantages, namely, a long investment horizon, global presence, sector expertise, as well as skilled, and experienced teams.

The Private Equity Transaction Management team project manages all Private Equity strategy deal closings while also leveraging data and emerging technology to provide actionable insights to GIC's investment teams globally. As part of their mandate, the team leads key initiatives, oversees the development and implementation of business infrastructural plans and operating models needed to scale GIC’s investments, and works closely with other lines of business, senior executives, and stakeholders in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.

The number of strategies covered by the Transaction Management team, as well as the significant deal flow, requires extreme attention to detail, analytical reasoning, as well as elite organizational, time‑management, communication and intrapersonal skills. As this role will be based in San Francisco and represents an expansion of the team's footprint in the Americas, this role also requires a general understanding of the alternative investment sector, venture capital, corporate finance, legal documentation and fund market standards.

Altogether, these are vital to be effective in dealing with the complex nature of the deals and short timelines.

• Lead private equity and venture deal closings with internal stakeholders (e.g., investment teams, legal, tax, finance and accounting);
• Collaborate and project manage deal related matters such as closing timelines, corporate actions, and document management to ensure deals are initiated, negotiated, and closed in alignment with GIC’s strategic interests;
• Be a main point of contact for external counterparties such as counsels, custodians and administrative agents for KYC / AML clearances, and query resolution;
• Facilitate transaction document review by ensuring receipt of all relevant materials and reviewing / delegating / negotiating items from the issues list;
• Go‑to operational resource for all process queries or application of processes / policies across front / middle / back office;
• Drive departmental initiatives to further harmonize and streamline deal‑related workflows across internal and international silos;
• Opportunistic ad‑hoc tasks as assigned by the Transaction Management Team;
• Work closely with the Transaction Management Team in New York and provide coverage to their corresponding strategies.
