The strategy invests across global equity markets, with a broad remit spanning the US, Europe, UK and Emerging Markets. The investment team takes a genuinely generalist, fundamental approach, combining bottom-up company analysis with thematic research to identify attractive long-term investment opportunities.
This is an excellent opportunity for a high-quality buy-side equity analyst to join a lean investment platform, work closely with experienced portfolio managers and contribute meaningfully to the investment process. The role offers excellent career progression, with the successful candidate being offered a clearly defined pathway to money-management.

Build detailed financial models and undertake valuation and company analysis.
Contribute to stock selection and the wider portfolio construction process.
Develop and present investment ideas to the investment team.
Requirements

Candidates should have:
Buy-side equity investment experience within either a traditional asset manager / long-only environment or a long/short equity hedge fund.
