WHAT WE EXPECT

We are looking for proof of your passion for data. While many on our team have educational backgrounds in Economics, Accounting, Finance, MIS, CIS, Mathematics, etc., this opportunity is open to all majors. Having a conceptual knowledge of databases (e.g., SQL) is a plus. We’d like you to have 1-3 years of experience in financial services-preferably in the Private Markets space. We’re open to fresh graduates also with relevant internship experience. Exceptional attentiveness to detail and strong customer service skills are a must since you will be working with investors and private equity managers to review and analyze performance data. We want to hear about how you’ve successfully prioritized tasks and carried out appropriate planning and time management strategies to achieve project objectives. Progress towards CFA, CAIA, Investment Foundations or an advanced business degree is a strong plus.
A certain degree of personal accountability, creativity, and latitude are required and encouraged. Your desire to build working knowledge of applicable financial terminology and industry best practices will help you be successful in this role and in our company. You embrace technology (Excel proficiency is just the beginning for you); creating pivot tables, using VLOOKUP is already a part of your skills. We need excellence. This means your communication skills are stellar: polished, professional communication skills and detailed analytical skills are vital as client interaction is high. We need innovation. This means you question the status quo and love asking “What if…?” We need teamwork. This means when a colleague asks “Can someone help me with…?” you’re quick to answer “Yes.” We need humility. This means you understand about lending a hand where necessary. We need integrity. This means you deliver results with little supervision and don’t hesitate to acknowledge, own, and resolve errors you’ve made (we all make them, we just have to learn from them).
You must also be amenable to work the APAC shift throughout the work week and at least twice per week in the Nasdaq office at Bonifacio Global City, Taguig.

WE WILL ENSURE THAT INDIVIDUALS WITH DISABILITIES ARE PROVIDED REASONABLE ACCOMMODATION TO PARTICIPATE IN THE JOB APPLICATION OR INTERVIEW PROCESS, TO PERFORM ESSENTIAL JOB FUNCTIONS, AND TO RECEIVE OTHER BENEFITS AND PRIVILEGES OF EMPLOYMENT. PLEASE CONTACT US TO REQUEST AN ACCOMMODATION.
