Currently AP in McKinsey so probably too late for PE investing but a good time for PE Ops. Want to stay in Miami. Which firms have an office in miami or nearby (HIG, I-squared, who else?)

I made the jump from PE DD consulting as a Principal, too. About 5 yrs ago. Have you done PE DD and value creation work?

You’re late for deal team but definitely portco ops and value creation is available to you.

I have been a VPT - VP of Transformation twice and been a division head all at portcos or fund level.

There is a small number of fund level seats but there are a lot of portco level roles. Good news is that you can live wherever, but you may have to go to the portco 1 week a month or a couple of days every other week.

Portco level WLB is better than the fund level.
Good comp and you’ll get profit interests that execute when you sell the company.

OP - feel free to DM. If you’ve done transformation work, that will be a fit

Under contract for nearly 1.1M. Wife and I are at HHI $315k. Will go up in the future, $400k in 3 years and $500k possible in 5-7 years. We have $300k in non-retirement funds, $260k of which will go towards acquiring the house. We have 2 kids and will probably reduce (not maxing) retirement accounts next 18 months to do this. Anyone have any thoughts or feedback? We’ll have to live on a budget and watch but I feel we’ll get used to it and income will grow.
