Role Brief:

Originator. Operator. Manager. Principal - Investments & Asset Management. Head of the investment team. 15 - 20 years in real - asset investing, warehousing and industrial at the core.

Team:

Investment team - head of the team (Principal, Associate, Analyst).

Reports to:

Founder & CEO / Head of the Investment Team.

Direct reports:

Associate - Investments & Asset Management; Analyst - Investments & Asset Management.

Location:

Mumbai Metropolitan Region - in person. Travel to NCR, Pune and Bengaluru.

Experience:

15 - 20 years in real - asset investing and transaction execution.

Engagement:

Full - time, permanent.

About the Company:

The company is an independent real assets platform. Real assets only. We start where we know the ground: logistics, warehousing and industrial parks, across the full chain - first mile, last mile, city - centre, dark - store and self - storage formats, and logistics - anchored mixed - use developments with distribution below and office above.

The Investment Team:

The investment team is the platform's transaction engine: three seats - Principal, Associate and Analyst - based in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region and working across the four active markets. The team originates, underwrites, structures and closes the platform's investments, and then stays with each asset for its life.

What the team underwrites:

The first phase runs across the full logistics and industrial chain: Grade - A big - box and manufacturing build - to - suit, urban multi - storey, first - mile and last - mile facilities, city - centre dark stores and self - storage, branded industrial plots, Grade - B - to - Grade - A refurbishment, and logistics - anchored mixed - use developments that stack distribution, office and retail in a single vertical asset.

Why this role exists:

The platform has a 10 million sq ft pipeline, four active markets and a founder who has, so far, originated every deal himself. That is not sustainable, and it is not meant to be. The Principal takes that book over: origination, underwriting, structuring, negotiation, Investment Committee, closing - and then the asset, as its Sponsor, through development, leasing, asset management and exit.

What you will own:

- Own the pipeline. Build and hold a book of actionable land and platform opportunities across warehousing, industrial and logistics in MMR, Pune, NCR and Bengaluru, with office and data - centre adjacencies where the platform's capabilities transfer.

- Originate from the demand side. Convert 3PL, manufacturing and e - commerce requirements into build - to - suit and pre - leased structures.

- Own the underwriting and the Investment Committee. Form the independent view on location, demand, land economics, feasibility, leasing and exit; challenge the model; write the thesis, the risks and the levers; present and defend it.

- Structure and close. Land purchase and long - term lease, joint venture and joint development, build - to - suit and pre - lease, forward purchase and forward funding, forward sale to institutional buyers and listed vehicles, sale - and - leaseback, platform joint ventures.

- Sponsor the assets you close. Own the thesis for life, sign the annual asset business plan, present at the monthly Asset Review, and lead corrective action when an asset drifts from its underwriting.

- Own the investment content of investor reporting and asset - level capital. Portfolio performance against underwriting for the CFO's sign - off.

- Build the team. Recruit, direct and develop the Associate and the Analyst into people who can run a transaction end to end and stay with the asset afterwards.

Who we are looking for:

- 15 - 20 years in real - asset investing and transaction execution, the greater part of it in warehousing, logistics and industrial real estate.

- A record - on your Deal Sheet - of originating, underwriting, structuring and closing complex transactions.

- Command of the instrument set: land purchase and long - term lease, JV and JDA, build - to - suit and pre - lease, forward purchase and forward funding, forward sale to institutional and listed buyers, sale - and - leaseback, platform JVs.

- Enough asset - management experience to own an asset after closing: business plans, actuals against underwriting, hold / refinance / exit decisions.

- Fluent in front of an Investment Committee, a lender's credit committee and an institutional partner.

- Established relationships across the industrial and logistics ecosystem.

- Based in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, or relocating before joining. Willing to travel extensively.

- A Bachelor's degree and a CA, CFA or MBA from a reputed institution.

How you will work:

Outsource first, then automate, then hire. Legal, technical, environmental and tax diligence, valuation and administration are executed by institutional partners; the team commands them.

Everything runs on the platform's dashboards. Models, trackers and Asset Review packs live on the operating layer, not in private spreadsheets.

Judgment is written down. Every investment has a thesis, every thesis has an owner, and every owner presents against their own underwriting at the monthly Asset Review.

Compensation:

The company benchmarks compensation against the upper quartile for the role and market, weighted toward equity for candidates who want to build with us long - term.

Cultural fit:

We're building the company over a decade, not a funding cycle. We're looking for people who treat technology as the default answer rather than a supplement, who want to be co - builders of the platform rather than employees executing instructions, and who are comfortable saying "I don't know" and "I was wrong."

AI proficiency is a standing requirement in every seat. You work fluently with AI tools for research, modelling, drafting and analysis, and you build on the platform's dashboards rather than around them.
