Job Description Summary

For over forty years, HarbourVest has been home to a committed team of professionals with an entrepreneurial spirit and a desire to deliver impactful solutions to our clients and investing partners. As our global firm grows, we continue to add individuals who seek a collaborative, open-door culture that values diversity and innovative thinking.

In our collegial environment that’s marked by low turnover and high energy, you’ll be inspired to grow and thrive. Here, you will be encouraged to build on your strengths and acquire new skills and experiences.

We are committed to fostering an environment of inclusion that promotes mutual respect among all employees. Understanding and valuing these differences optimizes the potential of both the individual and the firm.

HarbourVest is an equal opportunity employer.

This position will be a hybrid work arrangement. You will receive 18 remote workdays per quarter to use at your discretion, subject to manager approval. For example, you may choose to work in the office 4 days per week and take one remote day weekly (typically 13 weeks per quarter), leaving 5 additional remote days to be used as needed.

The Product Management Associate will play a key role in supporting the growth and management of HarbourVest's global Direct Co-Investment platform. This highly visible position sits at the intersection of investments, fundraising, client engagement, and business strategy, offering broad exposure to product development, portfolio analysis, investor communications, and strategic initiatives.

Working closely with Investment, Investor Relations, Solutions, Finance, Legal, Compliance, and Tax teams, you will help drive successful fundraising and deliver best-in-class client servicing across HarbourVest's Direct Co-Investment funds and customized client solutions.

Please note that this role is not focused on evaluating and executing Direct Co-Investments.

The ideal candidate is someone who:

  • Is an analytical, organized, and creative problem-solver with exceptional attention to detail.
  • Takes ownership of deliverables and consistently produces high-quality work in a fast-paced environment.
  • Can effectively manage multiple projects and competing deadlines with limited supervision.
  • Is a strong communicator who can distill complex fund, portfolio, and investment information into clear and concise materials for a variety of audiences.
  • Enjoys collaborating across teams and building strong relationships with stakeholders globally.
  • Has a data-driven mindset and is motivated to leverage technology, analytics, and process improvements to enhance business operations.
  • Demonstrates sound judgment, professionalism, and discretion when handling sensitive information.
  • Is intellectually curious and interested in developing deeper expertise in private markets and direct co-investments.

What you will do:

  • Serve as a key liaison between the Direct Co-Investment investment team and Investor Relations professionals, supporting fundraising, client servicing, and strategic growth initiatives.
  • Support the full lifecycle of Direct Co-Investment products and client relationships, from product development and fundraising through portfolio monitoring, reporting, and ongoing management.
  • Develop and maintain investor-facing materials, including presentations, fund updates, PPMs, DDQs, RFP responses, data rooms, and marketing collateral.
  • Coordinate responses to investor inquiries and due diligence requests, including both quantitative and qualitative analyses.
  • Conduct market, competitor, and portfolio research to support product positioning, fundraising efforts, client engagement, and strategic decision-making.
  • Prepare fund, portfolio, and investment analyses, as well as recurring client, advisory board, and annual meeting materials.
  • Support strategic client and separately managed account initiatives, including prospect research, onboarding, implementation planning, and customized solutions.
  • Monitor fund and portfolio performance, capital activity, liquidity, and portfolio construction metrics to support business management and investor reporting.
  • Drive process improvements and technology-enabled solutions that enhance reporting, scalability, operational efficiency, and data integrity.
  • Contribute to strategic initiatives and business planning efforts that support the continued growth and management of the Direct Co-Investment platform.

What you bring:

  • Strong analytical, quantitative, and problem-solving skills
  • Excellent organizational and project management capabilities
  • An understanding of private markets
  • Outstanding attention to detail and commitment to accuracy
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to synthesize complex information into meaningful insights and client-ready deliverables
  • Experience managing multiple priorities and deadlines simultaneously
  • Collaborative mindset and ability to work effectively across global teams and functions
  • Advanced proficiency with Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint; experience with Salesforce, Power BI, or other reporting and analytics tools is a plus

Education Preferred

  • Bachelor of Arts (B.A) / Bachelor of Science (B.S) in Business, Accounting or Finance

Experience

  • 2-5 years of relevant experience in institutional relationship management or business development, private equity, asset management, or related financial services role preferred
