The OpportunityRex is seeking a Director, Family Office to own the capital, credit, and tax infrastructure behind Peter Rex personally and the businesses he backs. Rex's growth requires constant, hands-on work with creditors, banks, and financial institutions to structure and secure assets and credit, alongside tax work spanning the simple to the highly complex. This role exists to take that entire function off senior leadership's plate, starting with PE deal-making and portfolio needs and expanding across every Rex vertical over time. You will own the capital and credit relationships that back Rex's deal flow, negotiating directly with banks, creditors, and institutions. You will own tax strategy end to end, bringing in outside experts only for the last, hardest percentile, a model built to cut advisory spend from year one. You will build exposure across a broad range of asset types and become the person who knows exactly when to solve something in-house versus bring in outside counsel, a CPA, a banker, or a broker, and who isn't afraid to push back on any of them. Given direct, ongoing access to Peter Rex's personal financial, credit, and tax information, this role requires absolute discretion and will be conditioned on executing a comprehensive confidentiality and non-disclosure agreement prior to start. The ideal candidate has 5-10 years in a sophisticated UHNW or family office environment, with real tax expertise and broad exposure across asset classes. You roll up your sleeves, do the brunt of the work yourself, and know when to delegate. You operate with exceptional judgment and proven personal financial discipline. Genuinely humble: no hero-ball, no covering your own tracks, just a relentless focus on the best outcome for the family office as a whole. Meticulous, proactive, and an excellent follow-through operator. Familiarity with trusts and estates expected. Clever as a serpent, innocent as a dove. Must be missionary to the bone. Fully remote.
About the RoleThis role exists to build and run an institutional-grade family office function that sits directly behind Peter Rex personally and the broader Rex portfolio. You will own the relationships, structures, and strategy that keep capital flowing, credit secured, and tax exposure minimized: work that today lives informally on senior leadership's desk and needs a dedicated owner with real technical depth. This role reports to the Director of Investments.
You will operate at the intersection of banking, credit, tax, and portfolio strategy, serving as the direct point of contact with creditors, banks, and financial institutions on structuring and securing assets and credit for active deal flow. You will own tax strategy from the ground up, doing the analytical and preparatory work yourself and reserving outside experts for genuinely novel or high-complexity questions, with an explicit mandate to reduce reliance on paid advisory relationships over time.
You will build fluency across a wide range of asset types, including real estate, credit facilities, operating businesses, and personal holdings, so that you can make an informed, defensible call on when a problem should be solved internally versus escalated to a CPA, banker, attorney, or broker. This requires equal parts technical competence and judgment: you are trusted to push back on outside professionals when their recommendations don't hold up, without ever losing the discretion and humility the role demands. Because this role sits closer to Peter Rex's personal financial life than any other seat in the ecosystem, it carries a correspondingly higher bar for confidentiality, vetting, and trust.
This is a foundational hire for a function that starts narrow, with PE deal-making and portfolio needs, and is expected to expand across every Rex vertical as trust and scope grow. It is a hands-on, execution-heavy seat, not an oversight role: you are expected to do the work, not just manage people who do it.

- Expand the family office function's scope methodically across additional Rex verticals as the role matures.
