Jon Mansfield

A note from Jon Mansfield

I founded Mansfield Investment Management after nearly three decades of experience navigating complex capital structures and delivering tailored solutions for investment management covering transaction origination, business development, investor relations, deal execution, and human capital management at large firms such as Ares Management, Donaldson, Lufkin and Jenrette, Praesidian Capital, and WP Global Partners.

Jon Mansfield

My purpose in founding Mansfield Investment Management was to bring the breadth of expertise and rigorous approach that is present in such larger⁠-⁠scale firms well within reach of private equity managers, private equity⁠-⁠owned businesses, and institutional investors whose internal teams may have great strength and bandwidth in the core aspects of their work but not in all the critical related disciplines.

More details of my background can be found in my LinkedIn profile.
