Chief dealmakers need five to 10 years of experience in origination, structuring, and closing private equity transactions.
To be a successful chief dealmaker, you’ll need excellent negotiation, communication, and interpersonal skills; the ability to think analytically to solve problems; attentiveness to detail; creativity and imagination; confidence; leadership ability; and an understanding of leverage, complex capital structures, subordinated debt and equity, and other private equity financial concepts. Negotiations are sometimes tense and stressful, so you’ll also need the ability to think clearly and remain calm under pressure.
