WHO WE ARE

Our mission at Point is to make homeownership more valuable and accessible to all. Every day, we explore, build, and iterate to create innovative financial products that improve the lives of our customers. Together, we’re creating the premier full-stack home equity platform to help current homeowners access their home wealth and aspiring ones realize their dream of homeownership. Point has raised over $180M from Andreessen Horowitz, WestCap, Prudential and other leading investors.

​

Point has teamed up with SG Partners, a specialized boutique executive search firm focused on catering to clients within the global financial services industry, to spearhead this search.

About the role

​

Point is facilitating access to over $20 trillion in locked-up residential home equity. Point has invested over $1 billion in Home Equity Investments (HEIs) with $550 million invested in 2022 alone. Notably, Point recently finalized its inaugural rated securitization of HEIs, PNT-2023-1. With HEIs going "investment grade", the Head of Capital Formation will play a pivotal role in expanding the HEI asset class. The company aims to surpass $10 billion in funded HEIs per year within 5 years.

​

Capital is the lifeblood of the HEI product: your role is to introduce institutional investors to Point and the HEI asset class. Reporting directly to the Co-founder/Chief Business Officer, your primary responsibility is to source institutional capital commitments with an emphasis on permanent capital. Depending on the investor, these commitments may take the form of forward flow agreements, GP/LP investments, warehouse facilities, term financing, securitizations, joint ventures or other structures.

​

While acting as the chief advocate for HEIs among institutional investors, you'll also collaborate closely with internal teams in Investor Operations, Analytics, Risk, Capital Markets/Structuring, Legal, and Regulatory. Together, you'll craft marketing materials, present opportunities, structure deals, oversee due diligence processes, and ensure investors gain a comprehensive understanding of the asset class and its potential.

• Collaborate closely with internal Investor Operations and Legal teams to progress deals from term sheet to closing
• Ensure a seamless onboarding process for investors
• Enhance Point’s reputation as a leading partner among investment collaborators
• Offer clear and constructive feedback to internal teams regarding new opportunities and areas for improvement
• Collaborate with colleagues on all capital formation projects, investor operations, and other priority initiatives that come up
