Job Description
The Role:
Aligned Ventures is hiring a Director of Acquisitions & Asset Management. We are looking for someone who wants to own the entire lifecycle of the asset—from sourcing and underwriting the deal to executing the business plan and driving Net Operating Income (NOI) after closing.
You will report directly to the Partners. Your mandate is to maintain a robust acquisition pipeline while simultaneously ensuring our existing portfolio meets or exceeds projected returns.
About Us:
Aligned Ventures is a high-performance firm scaling across Texas. We differentiate ourselves through extreme alignment: we are investors first and sponsors second. We back every acquisition with our own $30M+ balance sheet, co-investing 20% of the equity in every deal. We currently operate 440 units in Houston and are actively buying, with a target of adding 600+ units in 2026 on our path to $1B AUM.
Function 1: Acquisitions (The Buy)

Function 1: Acquisitions (The Buy)
- Deal Sourcing: Actively source off-market and listed multifamily opportunities in Austin, San Antonio, and Houston. You will be the primary point of contact for the brokerage community.
- Institutional Underwriting: Build and manage detailed financial models for potential acquisitions. You are responsible for the accuracy of all assumptions (rent growth, taxes, insurance, CapEx).
- Due Diligence & Closing: Lead the transaction process from LOI to Closing. You will manage lenders, legal teams, and third-party inspectors to get the deal across the finish line.
Function 2: Asset Management (The Hold)
- Financial Oversight: Conduct monthly audits of asset financial statements (P&L). You will identify variances, spot expense leakage, and hold property management firms accountable to the budget.
- Business Plan Execution: oversee major capital improvement projects and renovation plans. You ensure that the value-add strategy we underwrote during acquisition is actually executed on time and on budget.
- Reporting: Prepare monthly and quarterly asset performance reports for the Partners, highlighting risks and operational adjustments.
Mandatory Hard Skills & Experience :
- Proven Track record: A verifiable portfolio of closed Texas transactions where you served as the primary lead from initial sourcing through the complexities of due diligence and final execution
- 7+ Years of Experience: Must have a mix of Transactional (Acquisitions) AND Operational (Asset Management) experience.
- Asset Management experience: You must be able to demonstrate experience managing a P&L, overseeing renovations, or managing third-party property managers. If you have only ever worked on the transaction side, this is not the right role.
- Technical Modeling: Advanced Excel proficiency is required for both Acquisition Modeling (Waterfalls, IRR) and Operational Analysis (Budgeting, Variance Tracking).
- Market Fluency: Deep knowledge of Texas property tax laws, insurance dynamics, and sub-market rental trends.
- Location: Currently located in Houston, Dallas or San Antonio
Other Benefits:
- Full Cycle Ownership: You won't just hand the deal off to an operations team and walk away. You will have the authority to execute the business plan you created.
- GP Equity: We provide General Partnership equity in the deals you help us buy and operate.
- High Autonomy: This is a senior individual contributor role. We measure results (Deals Closed + Portfolio NOI), not activities.
