About this role
### Description
&vest buys beauty brands in the US and operates them, including Morphe, one of the most recognisable names in the category.
It doesn't advise from the sidelines. &vest takes brands on, embeds its own operators directly into management, and builds them with three in-house units doing the work those brands would otherwise buy from agencies.

It's a genuine support role. It's also a seat very few people ever get offered.

Deal & Investor Support
- Track open items across live deal processes and vendor negotiations; chase counterparties and internal team until things close.
- Review and QA decks, memos, and discussion materials before they go external — professional standard,...
