The Role
We are looking for a sharp, market-focused professional to bridge the gap between complex financial data and actionable investment products. As a Research & Product Specialist, you won’t just be crunching numbers; you’ll be the internal engine driving our investment narratives. You will evaluate mutual fund performance, track global market shifts, and ensure our product suite remains competitive and compliant in an ever-evolving landscape.

- Performance Benchmarking: Track portfolio overlap, rolling returns, and risk-adjusted metrics (Alpha, Beta, Sharpe) to distinguish between "lucky" funds and "consistent" performers.
2. Product Management & Strategy

- Platform Governance: Ensure all product data, decks and regulatory changes are updated and communicated across the distribution channel.
