Investment Analyst / Associate - Private Equity

About MXO

MXO is a private equity fund manager focused on value-creation opportunities across Mexico. As part of Grupo MRP, a leading alternative asset manager, MXO pursues arbitrage and value-added investment opportunities across a broad range of industries and strategies, from equity injections to leveraged financing structures. MXO operates as a small, senior team. Analysts are given direct exposure to live transactions from an early stage of their tenure, rather than a multi-year track limited to administrative support.
