About the role
We're hiring a Funds Analyst (L1) to join our Funds team. The funds business sits at the intersection of investment, distribution, and operations — onboarding private and public fund managers, evaluating their strategies, and supporting how those funds reach investors on our platform. As an L1, you will work alongside senior team members on every part of that lifecycle: from screening managers and reviewing documentation to producing the marketing collateral that distribution and CAM teams rely on. This is a learning-heavy seat designed to build durable fund-industry expertise from day one.
Who you'll work with
You will partner closely with senior funds colleagues, GPs and placement agents, our legal and compliance teams, and our distribution, marketing, and CAM (Client Advisory & Management) teams. The role is collaborative — you will rarely own a workstream end-to-end at this level, but you will be in the room for most of them.
What you'll do
Execution
- Support senior team members in liaison with GPs across performance queries, onboarding, documentation, redemptions, and subscription cycles.
- Help maintain the accuracy and completeness of onboarding documentation (PPM, subscription docs, KYC requirements).
- Track open items across funds and flag anything at risk of slipping a timeline.
Due diligence
- Conduct basic fund analysis —distinguishing between asset classes, strategies, and fund vehicles (PE, VC, hedge, private credit, public funds, etc.).
- Form an early view on which funds make sense for the platform, with apples-to-apples comparison across managers and strategies.
- Prepare diligence inputs (track record snapshots, peer comps, structure summaries) that senior team members build into the investment view.
Distribution & sell-through
- Support production of sales materials — factsheets, EDMs, STO pages, brochures — making sure performance, fee, and structure data are correct and current.
- Answer basic queries from marketing and CAMs on redemption, subscription, NAV, and fund performance.
- Develop a working understanding of investor preferences and how funds are positioned to different investor segments.
Process improvement
- Identify inefficiencies and raise key issues or deal-breakers early — before they become escalations.
- Focus on reducing mistakes and unforced errors in document handling, data entry, and stakeholder communication.
Learning & development
- Build fund knowledge continuously across private and public assets — strategies, structures, fee models, market participants.
- Develop a strong understanding of our internal processes for onboarding and maintaining funds on the platform.
- Take ownership of your learning curve; ask questions early and often.
What we're looking for
Must-have
- 0–2 years of experience in funds, asset management, private banking, wealth management, fund administration, audit (financial services), or a comparable role. Strong fresh graduates from finance, accounting, economics, or related disciplines will be considered.
- Working understanding of fund vehicles and asset classes, or a clear interest and demonstrated self-study in this space.
- High attention to detail. Onboarding documentation does not tolerate errors.
- Clear, concise written communication — capable of drafting fact-checked client-ready content with supervision.
- Comfortable working across multiple stakeholders (GPs, legal, compliance, sales, CAMs) and managing competing requests.
- Proficient in Excel and PowerPoint; comfortable picking up new internal tools quickly.
Nice-to-have
- Exposure to private markets fund onboarding (PPM review, subscription document workflows, KYC).
- CFA Level I (or progress towards), CAIA, or equivalent self-study.
- Experience producing or reviewing marketing collateral (factsheets, EDMs, fund one-pagers).
- Familiarity with fund-administration, CRM, or distribution platforms.
How we'll measure success in your first 12 months
- Onboarding tasks you support are completed on time, with documentation accurate and complete on first review.
- You can independently produce a draft factsheet or EDM that requires only light edits from senior reviewers.
- You can answer routine GP, CAM, and marketing queries on NAV, redemption, subscription, and performance without escalating.
- You consistently spot and surface inefficiencies and risks early — before they become problems.
- You demonstrate measurable growth in fund-strategy knowledge, evidenced in diligence prep work and internal discussion.
Career path
L1 is the foundation level for our Funds Business career track. Strong performers progress to L2 (managing onboarding workstreams independently, performing detailed diligence, handling investor queries directly), and onward to L3 (owning fund-level investment thesis and revenue outcomes) and L4(platform-level ownership of fund selection, distribution strategy, and unit economics). We invest in this progression deliberately — the role is built to grow.
