peHUB’s Jobs of the Week—Extended International Edition

Today, we’ve got a little something close to the stamping grounds here in Times Square (OK, it’s across the river in Jersey, but its close enough). Swander Pace Capital, which just (according to our friends at Buyouts Magazine) embarked upon a $450 million fundraise, is already managing $1 billion between its East Side offices and its West Coast shop in sunny San Francisco.

However, since I’m subbing in for the delightful, vacationing Angela Sormani, I thought I’d try to go for some multi-jurisdictional appeal, and throw in other jobs (and an internship) across finance, media and a few other industries. So: Swander Pace’s associate gig is posted at the very bottom, and, in the meantime, please consider:

CalPERS is looking for a new investment officer III (just, well, don’t plan on your relationships with VCs getting you too far with the pension any more)

Square, which just struck a big deal with Starbucks, also has a big load of openings

If you’re looking to get into one of Andreessen Horowitz’s portfolio companies, we’ve got you covered (for everything but the recommendation, sorry)

EliSoft, which provides financial services software, is looking for some help in London

Our friends over at AxialMarket are seeking a front-end engineer, techies

Ann Arbor, Michigan-based Denison Consulting has a few gigs

Canadian in need of a new position? SimplyCast is seeking a director of strategic partnerships

The city of Rochelle, Illinois, is seeking a financial analyst. Apropos of nothing, this may be a good introduction to munis, jussayin’.

And, just for the kids, Scribble is hiring an intern

Now… for what you’ve all been waiting for…
