We are delighted to announce that Rare has been appointed as sole recruiter for an Analyst role with private equity firm ManoCap, based in Freetown, Sierra Leone.

ManoCap is the biggest private equity investor in Sierra Leone. By the end of the year, its fund will be equivalent to 2% of the country’s GDP. Its backers include Texas Pacific Group, Permira, and Landsdowne Partners. ManoCap’s total funds under management have just increased fivefold and the business plans to roll out in a number of other small emerging economies over the coming years.

The Analyst will identify and deliver investment opportunities and provide technical assistance to Sierra Leonean businesses.

Joining ManoCap is a unique opportunity to help some of the poorest countries in the world and to gain blue-chip, private equity experience. The Sierra Leone opportunity is for a year initially but the intention is to find someone who will stay with ManoCap for the long term and who has the potential to become a partner in the fullness of time.

Tom Cairnes, ManoCap Manager, commented: “We are looking for someone who wants to be part of something new, believes that countries like Sierra Leone will only grow if there are businesses to create wealth and jobs for people, and is comfortable doing well while doing good.”
