About Savano
Savano Capital Partners is a direct secondaries investment firm focused on leading late-stage technology and tech-enabled services companies.
We provide liquidity to founders, executives, employees, and early investors by acquiring minority ownership positions in established, high-growth businesses. Our investments are typically $10–30 million per company.
Our approach combines the fundamental underwriting and investment discipline of growth equity with the differentiated sourcing and transaction dynamics of direct secondaries. We focus on high-quality, capital-efficient companies and build relationships with shareholders well before potential transactions emerge.
We recently closed Fund IV, providing our largest pool of capital to date and a strong foundation for continued growth.
What you'll do
Source investment opportunities . Proactively identify attractive companies and potential sellers, develop new relationships, and build meaningful ownership of company and shareholder coverage.

Manage and advance investment opportunities . Help prioritize prospects, maintain our investment pipeline, and move opportunities from initial outreach through evaluation and execution.
Execute investment diligence . Analyze companies, industries, competitive dynamics, financial performance, and growth opportunities. Build financial models, develop valuations, and prepare investment committee materials.
Support portfolio monitoring . Evaluate company performance, industry developments, potential exits, and follow-on investment opportunities.
Help improve how we invest . Contribute to initiatives that enhance our sourcing capabilities, data, technology, and investment processes.
What we're looking for
Experience : 2+ years in investment banking, private equity, growth equity, venture capital, or a comparable analytical investment role.
Financial and analytical skills : Strong understanding of accounting, financial modeling, valuation, and business fundamentals.
Intellectual curiosity : Genuine interest in understanding how businesses work, what makes them successful, and how industries evolve.
Relationship-building ability : Confidence and communication skills to engage with senior executives, shareholders, investors, and other market participants.
Ownership and attention to detail : Strong work ethic, sound judgment, intellectual honesty, and the ability to manage multiple priorities in a small-team environment.
