Are most PE OPs opportunities generalist or are there sector specific positions? Joining BCG soon as an advanced degree hire with a medical background and want to focus on healthcare related projects but wondering if that might hinder recruiting down the line

Mid level roles are usually generalists. Senior roles often have industry of functional specialization.

You’ll be fine. Just don’t do public sector work or sectors where PE doesn’t invest.

Got it, thanks!

There are definitely also specialist mid level roles in PE Ops.

Other advice: do a mix of PIPE and strategy work at BCG. This will show you are familiar with the PE industry and that you are able to run strategy projects. This worked well for me; I’m in a PE Ops role now.

Hey 🐠, curious your thoughts on two roles. 27m finishing non-MBA grad school while working. First I’d a manager-level BD role for a startup (but public) company im really excited/energized by. 150k base with 15% bonus and equity. Second is a senior manager level growth & partnerships role for a slightly larger company that’s cool but I’m less enthusiastic about. 165k with 20% bonus and equity. Ignoring equity considerations, would you take the job with lower pay if the company is more exciting?
