RECRUIT

FUND MANAGER

Job description

1. Background to recruitment
Bluepass Capital is Japan’s first full-fledged buyout fund with roots in management consulting. The first fund was launched in January 2021, and had its final closing in March of the same year. Since then, investment execution has been proceeding smoothly, and we are looking for a few more fund managers.
As a hands-on style buyout fund, we are actively recruiting not only those with backgrounds in funds and investment banking, but also those with backgrounds in management consulting.

2. Our strengths
Our initial members are mainly those who took the risk to join us from the pre-fundraising stage, and our front members, including the CEO, are all millennials, making us a young, venture-minded buyout fund.
In terms of investments, we have a hands-on style that proactively grows sales and EBITDA in areas where we can add value to our portfolio companies, and will make investments that are meaningful not only to investees, but also to society. In addition, we place emphasis on growing young, professional managers through our investments.
Our organizational culture is flexible, transparent, flat, team-oriented, and full of laughter, with a high level of professionalism. We are committed to our portfolio companies and stakeholders, and we value creative thinking which provides them with new value.
Regardless of age or position, our members proactively source potential investees, participate in investment decision-making, and collaborate with a diverse range of professionals to execute and add value. We will grow together with those involved in our projects, develop trust, overcome various dramas, and deliver solid results.
