Position Overview

Private Credit has been the fastest growing sub-segment of the Private Markets industry over the past several years.  This is expected to continue as more firms see direct/private lending as a way to create portfolio yields that are uncorrelated to public markets; as traditional lending banks continue to face capital constraints and overheads; and as insurance companies seek structured loans and yields to feed their annuity businesses.

Private Credit funds also lend themselves more easily to semi-liquid fund structures such BDC’s, Interval Funds, ELTIF’s, etc which will result in broader distribution of these products into wealth channels, and thus more growth.

Primary Responsibilities

The Global Head of Private Credit will have responsibility for a go-to-market strategy for how we develop capabilities superior to global competitors in all major regions, and will be responsible for leading the firm’s ability to capture the above-mentioned growth levels.

Additionally the SVP will manage Private Credit global P&L and will work closely with the EVP Global Head of Private Markets to identify and fund specific priorities and targets.

Product development, management and client solutions will be part of the direct remit of the Global Head of Private Credit, and this SVP will collaborate closely with commercial teams and operating teams to drive superior outcomes for State Street and our global private credit clients.

Job Requirements and Minimum Qualifications

• 20+ years experience desirable
• Depth of experience in Private Credit required; either from asset servicing, or directly from within Private Credit and Fund employers
