Raleigh Enterprises is a family office focused on real estate ownership, development, and management, with a diversified portfolio and an emphasis on long-term investment value. The Senior Analyst works with the CIO and executive team to evaluate investments and optimize asset performance through underwriting, financial modeling, due diligence, and asset management. The analyst leads analysis and makes recommendations; executive leadership retains investment commitments and material approvals. In a lean team, the analyst owns analytical work, develops repeatable processes, and connects investment projections with Finance’s planning needs. Success requires judgment, curiosity, accountability, and adaptability.

The role covers investment analysis and due diligence, asset management and portfolio performance, finance coordination and portfolio reporting, and process, technology, and special projects. The analyst leads underwriting for property and other real estate investment opportunities; builds models for acquisitions, development, redevelopment, dispositions, and refinancing; evaluates valuations and returns; coordinates research and due diligence; and prepares investment memoranda and presentations.

The position supports planning and reporting by providing asset and financing projections, assisting with budgeting and forecasts, preparing portfolio reports, coordinating business plan updates, and supporting lender and investor reporting. The analyst maintains documented analytical standards, helps use technology including AI to improve efficiency, and leads CIO-assigned projects while prioritizing investment and asset management deliverables.

The position is primarily office-based, with limited business travel and occasional schedule flexibility to meet transaction and reporting deadlines. It requires extended computer work and property visits as needed. Compensation is $120,000–$140,000, with eligibility for a discretionary quarterly bonus plan that may provide an additional 20% of annual base salary based on overall company business performance metrics.
