London, Greater London, United Kingdom Wellington Management Full time
About the Role

Wellington Management's Investment Strategy & Solutions Group collaborates closely with clients to help solve their investment challenges. This ranges from sharing our research on portfolio construction, markets and manager selection, to drawing on the full breadth of the firm's capabilities to create and manage investment solutions tailored to each client's specific goals. A critical component of that research is asset allocation research, which informs how we position portfolios across various asset classes. This research spans systematic and fundamental, short-term and long-term, broad-based and client-specific.

Key Responsibilities
  • Facilitating a team-based process that drives the asset allocation positions in our portfolios;
  • Helping to generate asset class views through quantitative and fundamental research, in partnership with the Head of Research and the team, drawing upon both systematic and fundamental inputs;
  • Providing input into the research agenda for the team, balancing a desire to continuously raise the level of foundational asset allocation research with the ability to apply this research for the benefit of the firm's clients;
  • Forming a close partnership with our portfolio management team, our Head of active asset allocation research, other researchers and team members;
  • Maintaining a connection to client trends and challenges, so that the research agenda encapsulates the questions of the future.
Qualifications
  • A strong academic background, ideally including a post graduate degree or relevant professional qualification;
  • A minimum of 10 years of relevant experience in investment research, strategy, economics, capital markets or another related field. Portfolio management experience would be helpful;
  • Demonstrable experience in generating deep, differentiated research insights that impact client portfolios. This requires excellent domain knowledge across multiple asset classes, global markets and economies, and their drivers. Equity market expertise is preferred;
  • Curiosity and enthusiasm for markets and investing;
  • Strong analytical skills – excellent data collection and analysis skills;
  • Coding proficiency (python) or a desire to quickly gain coding skills;
  • Self-sufficiency in delivering relevant market based asset allocation research;
  • A proven ability to deliver and execute research processes to a high standard, within deadlines, and in coordination with others;
  • Experience in systematic, fundamental, or hybrid approaches to market research;
  • A collaborative mindset, and the ability to partner with colleagues across the team and the firm globally;
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to communicate deep research findings effectively to internal stakeholders (e.g. PMs, researchers, and other investors).
