I would say given that your team is lean, your job would be everything. From admin set up in the beginning all the way through creating initial databook, leading diligence meetings, updating analyses and finalizing the work through delivery.

When you have more members on your team (junior members) then as a manager you can step away from the nitty gritty and focus on the key analyses and running the overall project.

Absolutely - most firms are structured to have a manager/experienced associates plus someone below them. This is the best case scenario given that if you’re doing everything, it’s hard to understand deal issues while in the minutia of the details

You at CLA?
