About The Position

This professional will be a core member of Investure’s Investment Team focusing on Portfolio Management. Reporting to an Associate Director on the team, this role will contribute directly to institutional portfolio management and asset allocation. This person will support the Portfolio Management Team across its core responsibilities: portfolio oversight, prospective risk/return analysis, quantitative modeling, and original investment research. This professional will take ownership of recurring responsibilities relied upon by key stakeholders including exposure and liquidity analysis, private investment budgeting, and financial market monitoring. Over time, this individual will become a primary resource in areas such as strategic and tactical tilts, risk and liquidity management, and analytical tooling.

The ideal candidate should possess a strong, demonstrated interest in financial markets, experience in investments or a related field, a sharp quantitative and analytical skill set, a commitment to continuous process improvement, and exceptional attention to detail. A strong technical ability is essential as Investure increasingly relies on a modern data and analytics stack in its portfolio management approach. The strongest candidates pair innate curiosity and open-mindedness with a proven ability to work independently and with exceptional attention to detail.

Investure will not sponsor H-1B or other employment-related visas for this position.
