Director, Debt Services
5th Line is a leading aggregator of vertically-focused financial services for growth-stage companies; offering a suite of tailor-made solutions in the areas of financial operations, strategic planning and transaction advisory with a specialty in raising non-dilutive capital for our clients. First and foremost, the Director position’s main responsibility will be establishing new relationships while leveraging current ones within our space to generate new business for the firm. The role also requires basic finance knowledge and the ability to evaluate financial materials to qualify opportunities.
Our Venture Debt team helps growth-stage, cash-burning companies secure debt financing while avoiding dilution through equity raise. We first assess where clients fit in the market and then shoulder the workload of credit review and approval processes to deliver fast, favorable capital solutions from our network of trusted venture-oriented partners — even when clients do not fit traditional venture debt profiles.
The person filling this role has experience in investment banking, venture lending, investing, or similar; with a network from which to pull, experience from which to draw, and the “know-how” when it comes to identifying when an opportunity is viable. This person is outgoing, problem-solving, quick learning, persistent, and can negotiate.
