About Di Rezze Family Office

Di Rezze Family Office is a private investment platform focused on identifying and backing exceptional businesses across public and private markets. We invest across the private and public sectors. 

Founded by entrepreneurs and operators, we approach investing with an operator’s mindset: focusing on business quality, management teams, market opportunity, capital allocation, and long-term value creation. We believe the best outcomes are achieved when investors support great operators rather than attempt to become them. Our philosophy centers on alignment, partnership, and providing resources that accelerate growth without disrupting what made the business successful in the first place.

We are seeking an investment professional to help lead the firm’s investment and transaction activities. The role sits at the intersection of investing, capital markets, and strategic execution. The successful candidate will work directly alongside the principals in sourcing opportunities, evaluating companies, conducting diligence, building investment theses, structuring transactions, and managing key relationships across the investment ecosystem.

While the platform invests across multiple strategies, candidates should have a strong understanding of Hedge funds, SPACs, PIPE financings, and alternative capital markets transactions.

Important Note 

We care deeply about who we partner with. Intelligence, experience, and ambition matter, but integrity, character, and how you treat others matter just as much. We believe how value is created matters as much as the value itself.
