The posting

Job Description:

Overview:

We don’t simply hire employees. We invest in them. When you work at Chatham, we empower you — offering professional development opportunities to help you grow in your career, no matter if you've been here for five months or 15 years. Chatham has worked hard to create a distinct work environment that values people, teamwork, integrity, and client service. You will have immediate opportunities to partner with talented subject matter experts, work on complex projects, and contribute to the value Chatham delivers every day.

Role summary:

Chatham Financial is looking for an experienced derivatives professional to join our Sponsors Advisory team at the Director level. The role offers a dynamic, fast-paced work environment where team members develop a deep understanding of derivative products and markets. This role is designed for senior practitioners who are ready to operate as trusted advisors to private equity sponsors and their portfolio companies.

In this role you will:

  • Serve as a senior strategic advisor to private equity sponsors and their portfolio companies
  • Independently design and execute interest rate and FX hedging strategies across leveraged capital structures
  • Lead pricing, structuring, and negotiation of derivative transactions directly with bank counterparties
  • Provide guidance on ISDA negotiation, credit considerations, and documentation strategy
  • Present strategic recommendations to CFOs and investment professionals
  • Influence portfolio-level risk management frameworks across sponsor platforms
  • Mentor and develop junior advisors
  • Build rapport and, together with other Chatham teams, develop relationships with clients to identify new hedging as well as non-hedging opportunities

You will take ownership of and contribute actively to training newer advisors and potentially have opportunities for extended assignments within our clients’ teams where there is a fit. You will partner with colleagues in other service areas to identify additional client needs and provide comprehensive solutions. Our most experienced team members take on responsibility for a client sector or service and are involved in business development.

Your impact:

This is an important role within the team, and individuals who perform well will be highly valued team members. Career development opportunities involve gaining leadership or managerial responsibilities, managing cross-team processes, becoming senior relationships to large private equity sponsors, and fostering strong working relationships with counterparty banks. Characteristics that set this role apart include:

  • True independence — no balance sheet, no product conflicts
  • Scale of sponsor access — work with many of the largest private equity firms globally
  • Technology-enabled advisory — proprietary analytics integrated into client strategy
  • Employee ownership — alignment with firm growth and client outcomes

Contributors to your success:

  • “Do right by the client” attitude, inquisitive mindset, self-starter, team player
  • Proven drive, intellectual curiosity, and desire to grow personally and professionally
  • Proven ori entation towards collective team performance
  • A bachelor’s degree and 7+ years of relevant industry experience in real estate, finance, derivatives, capital markets, risk advisory, or related fields
  • MBA or master's degree in finance or related credentials (CFA, CPA, MAI) a plus, but not required
  • Direct commercial negotiation experience with bank counterparties
  • Strong understanding of private equity and real estate capital structures as well as leveraged finance, project finance and private credit markets
  • Executive-level communication skills
  • Strong analytical skills and ability to translate raw data into practical insights

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
