About Palladian
Palladian Investment Partners is a London-based private equity firm specialising in the lower middle market. As an independent financial sponsor, we invest through single-asset structures rather than traditional blind pool funds — a model that lets us be highly selective, move with conviction, and build deep partnerships with the management teams we back. We are a team of nine.
The Opportunity
This is a fractional role for an experienced professional who wants to make a real impact without a full-time commitment. Working approximately 2–3 days per month, you will own our group governance and corporate structure end-to-end, serve as a trusted adviser to the two managing partners, and help us build a high-quality governance environment as the firm grows.
The role is primarily remote, with periodic visits to our Mayfair office. Remuneration is £50–70 per hour, depending on experience.
