Avant Credit IFN | Bucharest, Romania
Build relationships. Open doors. Grow with us.
Avant Credit IFN is building its business in Romania within a private equity-backed environment, with a clear ambition to grow its financing and investment activities.
We are looking for an energetic and communicative Investor Relations Specialist to help us build and develop relationships with potential investors and partners in the Romanian market.
This is a hands-on role. You will research the market, identify potential investors, work with databases and CRM, make outbound calls, arrange meetings and introduce people to Avant Credit and our investment opportunities. Over time, you will build your own network and become a trusted point of contact for investors.
You don’t need to be an investment expert from day one. What matters is that you are curious, reliable, comfortable speaking with people and genuinely interested in learning how investments and private equity work.
What will you do?
- Research the Romanian market and identify potential investors, investment networks, family offices, HNW individuals and other relevant contacts.
- Screen and maintain databases to identify new investor leads and build a strong pipeline.
- Proactively reach out to potential investors by phone, email and other channels, introduce Avant Credit and identify opportunities for further discussion.
- Qualify leads, arrange meetings and follow up consistently throughout the relationship-building process.
- Build and maintain relationships with existing and prospective investors.
- Present Avant Credit, our business model and investment opportunities in a clear and engaging way.
- Keep investor information and activity up to date in our CRM and ensure systematic follow-up.
- Work with Marketing on investor communication, materials, events and other activities supporting our investor outreach.
- Support the wider team with market research and business development activities as needed.
Who are we looking for?
We are looking for someone who is comfortable picking up the phone, starting a conversation and opening a door.
You will ideally have:
- Experience in sales, business development, key account management, financial services, insurance or a similar environment.
- Strong communication skills and confidence speaking with new people.
- A proactive approach to finding and developing new contacts — you don’t wait for leads to arrive.
- Interest in investments, private equity and financial markets, with the motivation to develop your knowledge further.
- Knowledge of the Romanian market and local business environment.
- Excellent Romanian and good professional English.
- Good organisational skills, reliability and the ability to follow through on commitments.
- Comfort working with CRM systems, databases and Excel.
- A positive, energetic approach and the flexibility to work in a growing business where processes are still evolving.
Previous experience in an investment environment is a plus, but we are more interested in your attitude, communication skills and willingness to learn than in having the perfect investment background.
What can you expect from us?
- The opportunity to build your own investor network and grow your career in investment and private equity.
- A hands-on role where you can see the results of your work and have a real impact on business growth.
- A collaborative environment with room to take ownership and bring your own ideas.
- Competitive salary package aligned with your experience and expertise.
- Performance-based annual bonus linked to individual and company achievements.
- Private medical subscription for you.
- Hybrid working model and flexibility.
