What We're Looking For We are looking for someone who can take ownership of an opportunity once it enters the pipeline and, with limited direction, return it organized and substantially ready for senior-level review.

The adecuado candidate is intelligent, analytical, highly detail-oriented, responsive, and capable of learning an investment methodology and applying it consistently across a high volume of potential transactions.

You will not be expected to make final investment decisions. Your role will be to perform the analytical, research, underwriting, and organizational work that enables senior investment professionals to make those decisions efficiently.
