    CAZ Investments

    Security Officer Job In Houston, TX

    CAZ was founded in 2001 with the backing of some of the most respected and successful families in the state of Texas. Since our inception, we have focused our efforts on finding excellent opportunities to invest our personal money and then providing the ability for our global network of investors to co-invest with us. We exist to provide Exclusive Access to Unique Alternatives. We recently grew our ownership consortium to include several veterans in financial services as well as the world's leading life and business strategist, Tony Robbins. Robbins was thrice named to the WORTH 100 most influential people in the world of global finance. His first two financial books, Money: Master the Game and Unshakeable, were both #1 New York Times Bestsellers. Robbin's latest book, The Holy Grail of Investing, co-authored with our Chairman and CIO, Christopher Zook, recently became a #1 New York Times Bestseller as well. Robbins' private financial events often feature speakers like Paul Tudor Jones, Ray Dalio, Jeff Gundlach, Hank Paulson, Alan Greenspan, and others. We are quite different than the vast majority of other investment management companies in multiple ways. First, we always invest our personal capital alongside our Partners. We have more than $650mm of our personal capital committed to our investment vehicles. We provide access to our Partners to co-invest with us in these vehicles, which we believe provide the best opportunities for our families' and our Shareholders money. Second, because of the scale of our investments, we have access to opportunities that would otherwise not be available to investors with less than $250mm - $500mm of investable assets. Quite simply, there are many investments we can provide for our Partners they could never access on their own. Third, and what we believe is the most unique feature of our Firm, almost all of our compensation is earned only if an investor makes money. In many cases, if our Partners do not make money, we don't get paid. This ultimate alignment of interests is why we focus on finding the absolute best risk/reward opportunities available. Deputy COS This position is designed to be an in-depth program to provide the Team Member with the ability to learn every aspect of our business, while serving directly alongside the Investment Committee Members, including the CIO, as well as other Partners. This role will involve supporting Investment Committee Members in diligence, portfolio management, and firmwide strategy in pursuit of the Firm's highest priority outcomes. Additionally, this role will provide the Team Member with the opportunity to step into a senior position within the organization, after they have demonstrated significant value and mastery. Key Responsibilities: Organizing and supporting the Investment Committee Members' responsibilities including investment diligence, portfolio management, firmwide strategy, and management of the organization Serve as an observer in Investment Committee meetings, along with similar forums, and facilitate the execution of key priorities established by Investment Committee Members Success as Deputy COS will be measured by your: Ability to maximize and facilitate the responsibilities of Investment Committee Members Comprehensive understanding of diligence and monitoring across all types of investments made by the Firm Mastery of portfolio management tools, including financial modeling Effective collaboration across the broader Investment Management Team and the organization, including the execution of key initiatives as directed by the Investment Committee Members Requirements: At least an undergraduate degree with a strong academic record A minimum of two years of work experience, with a strong preference toward investment banking or private equity Ability to work in a fast-paced environment under strict deadlines Exceptional organizational and written communication skills with exacting attention to detail Highly proficient in Microsoft Office Suite Prior experience in financial modeling with robust mastery of Microsoft Excel (other data analytics software experience is a plus) Team player with a strong work ethic Ability to operate with a high degree of confidentiality Full-time, Houston-based role working locally while Investment Committee Members travel extensively Compensation and Benefits: Base salary will be commensurate with experience Bonus opportunities will be tied to effectiveness, measured by a periodic goal-setting process, with the amount of opportunity depending on value-added to the organization and Firm profitability Participation in our matching 401k plan We offer a generous PTO plan, along with an excellent benefits portfolio
