  • Strong understanding of performance methodologies (time-weighted return, money-weighted return, Brinson attribution, fixed-income attribution, benchmark analysis).
  • High proficiency in Excel (including advanced formulas, pivot tables; VBA a plus).
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and data validation skills with a high attention to detail.
  • Bachelor's degree in Finance, Economics, Mathematics, Accounting, or related field.
  • Ability to clearly communicate complex analytical insights to technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Preferred Qualifications (Optional)

  • Experience with portfolio accounting systems, data warehouses, and reporting tools.
  • Familiarity with GIPS standards.
  • Experience using Python, SQL, or BI tools for data automation and visualization.
  • CFA or CIPM designation (or progress toward one).

Personal Attributes
