This edition of onejob is a little different than usual. The job below is not at a tech startup, but it is an entrepreneurial role within a wonderful family office. Previous people in this role have gone on to be a very early employee at a startup with a $1b+ exit and a rising political leader.
Even if this job isn’t for you, feel free to send it along to siblings, friends, etc. who are looking for an unconventional way into the world of finance.
Georgica Advisors
Portfolio Analyst
Why this is a great job
Lots of responsibility, great co-workers, and the chance to learn about investing directly from some of the best fund managers.
The nitty gritty
The Firm
Georgica Advisors is a single family office based in New York City. The firm invests across asset classes (private equity, real estate, venture) and includes an in-house public equities vehicle. Its affiliated entity, Value Insight Partners, is a long/short equity fund of funds. The fund seeks long term capital appreciation through investments in value-oriented, long-biased hedge funds.
The Role
We are looking to hire a portfolio analyst to work directly with the principals of both funds across all aspects of the business – finance/operations, marketing/investor relations, portfolio research and analysis. The ideal candidate is smart, hardworking, detail-oriented, curious, and eager to learn. Because the role provides on-the-job learning in lieu of traditional training programs, the candidate must enjoy working independently, have good time management and be a self-starter. The role also requires a good amount of collaboration with other portfolio managers and analysts, interaction with brokers, and communication with management teams, so the candidate must have strong people skills and an outgoing personality. While prior experience working in the financial industry is not required, the candidate should be excited to learn about the financial markets and investing while working in a small business where everyone wears many hats.
