Leveraged Loan Research Analyst, Vice President

We are looking for a new team member to join the Fixed Income Beta Solutions Investment Team within State Street Global Advisors (SSGA). The role is based in London. You will join a dynamic, successful, collaborative team of investment professionals, managing SSGA's fixed income portfolios, bringing market-leading solutions to our clients.

The Global Fixed Income team comprises a team of over 100 investment professionals in eight global locations. The Fixed Income Beta Solutions Team manages $555 billion in fixed income ETFs, mutual funds and institutional mandates (as of June 30, 2023) across a broad spectrum of products on behalf of a wide range of clients.

SSGA is one of the industry's largest institutional asset managers and is the investment management arm of State Street Bank and Trust Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of State Street Corporation, a leading provider of financial services to institutional investors.

We employ a diverse group of investment professionals within our 26 worldwide locations and 10 investment centres. As an organisation, we are committed to corporate social responsibility. Active engagement with our communities around the world both as a partner and a leader is a fundamental value at State Street.

What we need you to do:

  • Analyse investment opportunities in the syndicated loan market (both primary and secondary) through fundamental credit research and financial modelling

  • Monitor a portfolio of credits across various industries, create timely update reports on companies/sectors and make buy/sell/hold recommendations

  • Follow developments in the leveraged finance market and maintain relationships with key syndicate banks, issuers, rating agencies and other market participants

  • Contribute towards thought leadership for internal and external distribution

  • Maintain the highest possible fiduciary standards

Who you are:

  • Leveraged loan/high-yield analyst, passionate about capital markets and leveraged finance

  • Committed to investment excellence, with strong attention to detail, and a collaborative attitude

  • An organised, positive, self-starter, who wants to be part of a successful and diverse team

Skill sets needed:

  • 7 to 10 years' leveraged finance experience on the buy-side, as a desk analyst or at a rating agency. Restructuring experience is a plus, but not required

  • Strong financial modelling skills and good understanding of legal documentation

  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, and client-facing experience

  • Ability to initiate and manage projects, problem solve and multi-task

  • Ability to perform at a high-level in a fast-paced environment

  • Advanced IT skills (Microsoft, Excel, Bloomberg, Python)

  • Graduate degree and/or CFA Charterholder

Are you the right candidate? Yes

We truly believe in the power that comes from the diverse backgrounds and experiences our employees bring with them. Although each vacancy details what we are looking for, we don't necessarily need you to fulfil all of them when applying. If you like change and innovation, seek to see the bigger picture, make data driven decisions and are a good team player, you could be a great fit.
