Investments Manager - Multi-Housing: Build Something Meaningful 

Role Summary:

To support our company’s rapid growth, we are hiring an Investments Manager reporting to the Head of Multi-Housing to increase CrowdStreet marketplace velocity, and streamline the marketplace deal screening process, specializing in multi-housing. This employee will be an integral member of the Investments Team and have exposure to nearly every facet of the CrowdStreet Investments process. This is a client-facing, interdisciplinary role that bridges commercial real estate analysis, structured finance, operations, capital markets, business development and project management.

The Success You'll Build: Primary Responsibilities and Impact 

• Manage and track CrowdStreet Marketplace deal flow. Drive viable offerings to approval and decline offerings that do not meet CrowdStreet marketplace criteria.

• Review and dissect models, challenge business plan assumptions and formulate the key questions.
• Partner with the Head of Multi-Housing and Investments team to screen and present marketplace offerings. Then work with the Capital Markets team to close Marketplace offerings that pass the screening process.
• Collaborate with and mentor Real Estate Analysts in the preparation of Investment Memorandums for deal approval.
• Collaborate with the Marketplace Operations team throughout the production phase of the offering, assisting in the creation and QA’ing of content for the offering detail page. 
• Oversee and manage the sponsor and deal due diligence processes. Work closely with the Head of Multi-Housing to evolve, implement and refine sponsor screening and deal screening procedures.
• Collaborate with the CrowdStreet Portfolio team to ensure high quality sponsor and investor experiences through the life cycle of offerings. This includes addressing any issues that arise post-funding.
• Utilize industry relationships to assist the Capital Markets and Marketing teams in identifying and developing sponsor lead and deal flow.

• Bachelor’s level degree, preferably in Business Administration or Finance

• Demonstrated ability to work with employees at all levels across the company as well as external sponsors and investors.
