London, United Kingdom Schroders Full time

About Schroders
We’re a global investment manager. We help institutions, intermediaries and individuals around the world invest money to meet their goals, fulfil their ambitions, and prepare for the future.

We have around 6,000 people on six continents. And we’ve been around for over 200 years, but keep adapting as society and technology changes. What doesn’t change is our commitment to helping our clients, and society, prosper.


The base
We moved into our new HQ in the City of London in 2018. We’re close to our clients, in the heart of the UK’s financial centre. And we have everything we need to work flexibly.


The Team
The team consists of nine analysts, whose main responsibility is to recommend stocks within their sectors to a range of equity portfolio managers across the Pan-European and Global Equities investment desks. This is a centralised Pan-European equity research team, where collaboration with equity portfolio managers is central to its success, and where entrepreneurialism and engagement with other investment divisions such as Credit and Multi Asset is actively encouraged. 
 
The analysts are incentivised to think like portfolio managers, be creative and continuously search for core investment opportunities in companies that are undervalued by the market and that have competitive advantages which can compound consistently over time. Research analysts are responsible for the detailed research, rating and monitoring of individual stocks in their universe.

Effective communication of this work to portfolio managers is intended to support the construction of a range of Pan-European and Global Equity portfolios. Research analysts are also expected to contribute to the team’s model portfolio, leveraging detailed bottom-up industry and company specific knowledge along with a variety of risk, and systematic models. The team also plays a leading role in AI-related innovation, seeking to develop new AI models that can be integrated into investment practice to augment our analytical capabilities. 


What you’ll do
As a research analyst you will be required to deliver fundamental research on companies within the Pan-European Technology sector creating proprietary financial models and research notes. As part of your research you will organise and conduct meetings with CEOs and other senior company representatives. The majority of your time as an analyst will be dedicated to entrepreneurial new idea generation, monitoring, and supporting PMs in the review of existing investments. 

Prior to recommending a stock, you will be expected to generate independent forecasts on the key drivers of the business and present your research to your peers and colleagues. Your analysis will be subject to rigorous scrutiny by fund managers and global sector analysts. You will be assessed based on the quality and conviction of your research, the effectiveness of your recommendations and the impact you have on our core investment stakeholders. Your recommendations will be ranked within the sector and your performance measured against it.

You will also be required to engage in the team process where collaboration, development and continuous improvement are essential aspects of the culture. This includes regular team meetings, presentations to fund managers and sector-specific networking and knowledge sharing events designed to leverage the expertise across the full spectrum of investment divisions, including private assets. 


Key responsibilities  
• Evaluate the Pan European Technology universe to find the most attractive core investment ideas and hidden investment opportunities where miss-priced optionality and potential catalysts can be identified;
• Conduct fundamental research on companies regarding market structure, competitive advantages, entry and exit barriers, revenue, margin and cash flow trends as well as understanding the make-up of the balance sheet;
• Analyse historic company and stock market performance to understand the risk / return characteristics under the current macroeconomic and market environment, as well as scenarios which differ to the upside and downside;
• Engaging with the Sustainability team and our proprietary sustainability tools to ensure all stakeholder risks and opportunities have been considered. 
• Build financial models for evaluation of a long-term fair value for a company;
• Summarise research findings in written research to articulate clear-cut conclusions and to highlight key drivers and risks inherent in the investment thesis;
• Maintain thorough coverage of held names; 
• Contribute towards the broader team research process and debates.


The knowledge, experience and qualifications you need
• Strong communication skills give the size of the team and the breadth of internal stakeholders;
• Up to 6 years’ experience of fundamental equity research;
• University degree or equivalent;
• CFA or equivalent;
• A passion for investing and markets;
• Strong financial modelling skills;
• Strong understanding of P&L, Cash Flow & Balance Sheet dynamics;
• Ability to plan work load independently;
• Structured problem-solving capabilities;
• Rational thinking;
• Investigative mind;
• Team player and 
• Good presentation skills


We recognise potential, whoever you are
Our purpose is to provide excellent investment performance to clients through active management. Diversity of thought, facilitated by an inclusive culture, will allow us to make better decisions and better achieve our purpose. This is why inclusion and diversity are a strategic priority for us and why we are an equal opportunities employer. You are welcome here, regardless of your age, disability, gender identity, religious beliefs, sexual orientation, socio-economic background, or any other protected characteristic.
