Summary

Our client seeks a talented Researcher to support a senior analyst and portfolio manager. As a multi-asset and global multi-strategy fund, research projects will be extremely varied in nature. The ideal candidate will be resourceful and comfortable with working independently in a demanding environment.

Description

This is an opportunity for a talented Researcher to join a compact high performing team comprising a Senior Analyst and Portfolio Manager whose remit is global, multi-product and multi-strategy. You will be asked to research aspects of prospective or existing investment strategies and to deliver a concise summary of your findings along with supporting evidence. You will frequently need to show initiative with respect to resourcing information and be capable of defining what is pertinent in the context of each individual research project so filtering information accordingly. You will be able to present your findings in a relevant and clear manner such that the content of your reports can be understood and evaluated with ease.

Attention to detail and accuracy is critically important as is a determination to complete a task in a time-efficient manner. Ideally you will be comfortable with assimilating key financial information at a corporate level as well as compiling analysis at an industry or sector level.

For the sake of clarity this is a defined and highly valued role in its own right. It is not a trainee analyst position.
