Private credit platforms combine sourcing, underwriting, portfolio management, risk, finance, operations, and capital formation in ways that vary significantly by strategy.
Direct lending, specialty finance, opportunistic credit, distressed, and other credit strategies can require very different talent profiles.
Ramax approaches these searches by understanding the strategy, borrower base, deal process, portfolio structure, and operating model around the role.

Some roles are built around sourcing and relationships, others around underwriting discipline, portfolio surveillance, workout, or risk management.
The search has to reflect where the role sits in the investment process and how responsibility is divided across the platform.
Sourcing, origination, relationship management, sponsor coverage, and professionals responsible for building the opportunity set.
Credit analysis, underwriting, diligence, modeling, structuring, and transaction execution.
Portfolio management, monitoring, covenant analysis, restructuring, workout, and ongoing credit oversight.
Fund finance, accounting, operations, risk, investor relations, capital formation, legal, and compliance.
