Picture this: diving deep into global markets, unearthing hidden gems in funds and asset classes, and shaping precision-engineered portfolios that deliver real results for high-end advisers.

CORE RESPONSIBILITIES

Get hands-on with the action that keeps portfolios ahead of the curve.

Scrutinise global financial markets, asset classes, and economic signals to spot trends, risks, and prime opportunities for savvy investment calls.

Hunt down top fund picks using quant and qual tools, digging into manager performance, processes, team strength, and cost smarts – including face-to-face due diligence and peer showdowns.

Whip up crisp research reports and presentations that fuel Investment Committee debates on asset allocation and fund choices.

Team up with Johannesburg and London crew on everything from tech tweaks and product launches to reporting upgrades, while soaking up wisdom from senior portfolio pros.
