Private Equity Vice President
3 weeks ago
CSC Generation is the AI-native holding company re-engineering omni-channel retail. We acquire iconic brands and transform them with Genesis—our operating platform unifying a Data Fabric, Automation Engine, proprietary tools, and shared services—to modernize operations, elevate customer experience, and expand margins.
With $1B+ in revenue across 13 brands, our portfolio includes Sur La Table, Backcountry, One Kings Lane, and more—premier home and outdoor banners that double as real-world innovation hubs. CSC Generation continues to grow through M&A, revitalizing companies with strong brand recognition and loyal customers.
We are hiring a
Private Equity, Vice President
to help lead CSC's investment efforts across consumer, retail, ecommerce, and adjacent sectors. You will be responsible for
originating and leading transactions
, owning relationships with management teams, lenders, and advisors, and driving value creation across a portfolio of brands.
This is a senior investing role for someone who has already
led multiple closed deals
(ideally complex carve-outs, corporate divestitures, or distressed / special situations) and has a track record of partnering with operators to create value — similar to operationally focused firms that emphasize hands-on improvement and long-term value creation.
What you get to do:
Investment origination, qualification & strategy
- Develop and execute sector theses and sourcing strategies in priority categories (e.g., home, outdoor, specialty retail, DTC / ecommerce).
- Build and maintain relationships with investment bankers, brokers, advisors, lenders, and executives to generate proprietary deal flow.
- Lead early-stage assessment of opportunities: quick screens, high-level models, and go/no-go recommendations.
- Partner with CSC leadership to refine our acquisition strategy, return hurdles, and portfolio construction.
Deal leadership & execution
- Serve as
deal captain
on transactions from LOI through close: structure, diligence, financing, and documentation. - Lead negotiation of key commercial terms with sellers, management, and financing partners.
- Oversee investment committee materials and presentations, ensuring a clear thesis, robust downside analysis, and actionable value-creation plan.
- Coordinate internal and external diligence teams (legal, accounting, tax, IT, operations) and hold them accountable to timelines and quality.
- Manage lender and co-investor relationships, including process management.
Portfolio value creation & governance
- Partner with portfolio company CEOs and CSC's operating leaders to design and oversee 100-day and multi-year value-creation plans.
- Focus on levers such as assortment and merchandising, channel strategy, pricing and promotion, digital/customer acquisition, supply chain efficiency, and store fleet optimization.
- Work with CSC's technology and AI teams to embed automation and analytics into portfolio operations, creating repeatable playbooks.
- Serve as a board member or observer on select portfolio companies, ensuring disciplined governance, KPI tracking, and strategic focus.
- Lead evaluation and execution of add-on acquisitions and strategic partnerships for portfolio brands.
Team leadership & firm building
- Manage and develop deal team members; set expectations on work quality, modeling, and communication.
- Help refine CSC's investment processes, standards, and toolkits so the platform scales efficiently.
- Contribute to firm-level priorities, including capital raising support (data room prep, case studies, select LP interactions) and relationships with key financing partners.
What you bring:
- 8–12+ years
total experience in investing and/or transaction-oriented roles, including: - Significant time in private equity, special situations, or distressed investing; and
- Prior background in investment banking, restructuring advisory, or top-tier strategy consulting.
- Proven track record as a
deal lead
on multiple closed transactions (buyouts, corporate carve-outs, distressed or special-situations deals). - Demonstrated experience driving portfolio value creation — not just closing deals — ideally in consumer, retail, or ecommerce businesses.
- Experience working with middle-market companies and complex situations (multi-brand platforms, cross-border operations, operational turnarounds).
Skills & capabilities
- Expert financial and transaction skills: LBO modeling, capital structure optimization, credit documentation, and risk/return framing.
- Strong command of operational drivers in consumer and retail (traffic, conversion, AOV, merchandising economics, inventory turns, store productivity, customer acquisition costs, etc.).
- Comfortable translating data and analytics into clear operational priorities and action plans.
- Excellent communication skills, including the ability to influence C-level executives and present to investment committees and boards.
Leadership & cultural fit
- Builder mentality: excited to help shape the investment function of a fast-growing holding company rather than slot into a rigid mega-fund hierarchy.
- Hands-on, sleeves-rolled-up approach consistent with operationally focused PE firms: willing to spend time in distribution centers, stores, and with on-the-ground teams when needed.
- Low ego, high ownership, and strong coaching instincts with junior team members.
- High tolerance for complexity, speed, and ambiguity; energized by special situations and turnarounds.
- Willingness to travel regularly to portfolio companies, partners, and key markets.
