Salary
Post Investment Group (“Post”) is a Beverly Hills–based privately held holding company with a diverse portfolio of investments across Real Estate, Real Estate Services, Consumer Products, and Health & Wellness. We invest both actively and passively, frequently partnering with strong operators and management teams to accelerate growth and operational excellence.
As a vertically integrated organization, Post maintains an in-house team spanning Legal, Accounting, Finance, Technology, HR, and Operations. Our business moves quickly, and our legal team sits at the center of a high volume of complex, multidisciplinary transactions.
