TEAM OVERVIEW

The Global Client Solutions Group (“KCS”) is KKR’s dedicated investor solutions team. KCS, formerly known as the Client and Partner Group, or CPG, was first formed in 2009 to invest in and focus on KKR’s relationships with current and potential investors. The Private Equity Product Strategies team, which is part of KKR’s Global Client Solutions (KCS) team, works exclusively with the firm’s Private Equity platform to provide ongoing LP support including raising, marketing and structuring funds, as well as maintaining an ongoing dialogue with investors. The team collaborates with investment professionals and the deal teams to understand the current portfolio, deal pipeline and overall market dynamics. The team participates in fundraising activities and is also responsible for the diligence process, where a number of requests can be rather technical in nature and the volume and cadence can be quite heavy and involved. Other ad-hoc tasks for the KCS Product Strategy team include creating quarterly presentations, consistently updating marketing materials, and drafting letters to communicate complex and nuanced topics to a wide range of audiences.

POSITION SUMMARY

KKR’s Product Strategy Team within KCS is looking to make a hire at the Analyst/Associate level based in New York. The new addition to the team will work dynamically across all of KKR’s investing strategies in two primary capacities: 1) focusing on deepening our relationships with our investors and representing the KKR  products to form new capital and 2) managing the internal fundraising processes required to facilitate fundraising, including structuring products, developing marketing materials and ongoing reporting, building prospective investor pipelines, supporting client-specific requests and projects and managing teams.

The successful candidate will work closely with the investment professionals to understand the current portfolio, deal pipeline, and overall market dynamics with the intention to be able to speak as a surrogate for the deal team in the market. Specific responsibilities will include developing deep knowledge of the KKR platform, its differentiators, and investments. We expect a successful candidate to be highly skilled at supporting live fundraising efforts, leading technical diligence processes with clients, and project managing across internal and external stakeholders.
