Director of Capital Formation & Investor Relations

The Opportunity: Your primary responsibility is to raise capital and develop lasting investor relationships. You will generate opportunities through your own relevant relationships and manage introductions provided by RDG’s leadership and equity partners. You will own the process from initial contact through qualification, due diligence, subscription, and ongoing investor service. This role reports directly to the CEO & Managing Partner. It suits someone who has personally helped secure investment allocations, can work independently in a small firm, and is comfortable discussing the opportunities and risks of a crypto investment strategy.

Capital Formation: Develop and execute a focused fundraising plan with RDG’s leadership, including target investor segments, allocation sizes, priorities, and milestones. Originate opportunities among family offices, qualified high-net-worth investors, registered investment advisers, and other relevant allocators. Take ownership of introductions from RDG’s leadership and equity partners, ensuring prompt outreach, consistent follow-up, and clear next steps. Qualify prospects by investment capacity, strategy fit, eligibility, decision-making process, and allocation timing. Lead investor meetings and coordinate due diligence through subscription, involving the CEO and service providers as needed. Develop relationships with relevant distribution partners and introducers. Attend targeted investor meetings and industry events with defined objectives and follow-up plans.

Pipeline Management: Own RDG’s CRM and maintain accurate records of prospects, potential allocations, meeting notes, objections, and next actions. Run a weekly pipeline review with leadership, identifying progress, stalled opportunities, and decisions needed. Report separately on early interest, active diligence, commitments, and funded subscriptions. Track conversion rates and sales cycles to improve the fundraising process.

Investor Relations and Materials: Serve as a primary relationship contact for prospective and existing investors. Coordinate investor questions, onboarding, and ongoing communications with the CEO, fund administrator, and other service providers. Help improve presentations, fact sheets, and due-diligence materials based on investor feedback. Explain RDG’s strategy, performance, risks, liquidity, and investment structures clearly and accurately. Coordinate with legal and compliance resources before using new or materially revised marketing materials.

Required Experience: At least five years of relevant experience in private-fund fundraising, alternative-investment distribution, or a comparable investment sales role. A demonstrable record of personally contributing to completed investment allocations, with the ability to explain capital raised, investor types, typical allocation sizes, sales cycles, and your specific role. Active relationships with investors or intermediaries relevant to RDG’s strategy. Established network among family offices, RIAs, institutional allocators, or qualified high-net-worth investors. Experience managing prospects from introduction through due diligence and investment. The ability to discuss investment performance and risk credibly, including periods of losses. Strong written communication, presentation, follow-up, and CRM discipline. The ability to work independently in a small, entrepreneurial organization. Candidates should be able to provide professional references who can verify their fundraising contribution. Experience in investor service or meeting coordination alone will not satisfy the fundraising requirement.

Preferred Experience: Fundraising for hedge funds, digital-asset strategies, or other liquid alternative investments. Familiarity with U.S. and offshore private-fund structures. Experience working with investment platforms and distribution partners.
