    Description
    About UsWellington Management

    offers comprehensive investment management capabilities that span nearly all segments of the global capital markets.

    Our investment solutions, tailored to the unique return and risk objectives of institutional clients in more than 60 countries, draw on a robust body of proprietary research and a collaborative culture that encourages independent thought and healthy debate.

    As a private partnership, we believe our ownership structure fosters a long-term view that aligns our perspectives with those of our clients.

    About the RoleRoleWe are currently seeking to recruit an experienced Consumer Analyst to join our Global Industry Research (GIR) group.

    This individual will be a key member of Wellington's Consumer team, and will conduct research and make recommendations on stocks in the pan-Asia consumer ecosystem, leading research insights across this opportunity set, as well as directly covering a number of important verticals in the space.

    The role of a Global Industry Analyst (GIA) at Wellington is to develop a deep understanding of companies across an industry, and the opportunities and risks associated with investing in them, in order to recommend them for inclusion in client portfolios.

    He/she is expected to develop a thorough grasp of the competitive, operational, financial, and regulatory dynamics which the companies under coverage are subject to.

    This research serves as the foundation for the GIA to conduct differentiated, long term, bottom up, fundamental analysis on stocks, identify mis-pricing or valuation discrepancies, and communicate findings to Portfolio Managers globally who manage long-only and hedge fund portfolios on behalf of our clients.

    Over time, we expect the majority of GIAs to take on portfolio management responsibilities for their industry, as part of the firm's Research portfolios.

    This position can be based in Hong Kong or Singapore.

    QualificationsWe are seeking an Analyst who is passionate about the markets, and who has a demonstrated record of successful stock-picking recommendations.

    GIAs must have a fundamental, research oriented, bottom up approach, supported by a strong investment philosophy and process. The successful candidate will enjoy acting as an individual contributor within a highly collaborative investment culture.

    He/she will thrive by building strong relationships with colleagues and company management teams, by communicating action oriented investment opinions clearly and with conviction, and by enjoying an open investment dialogue and respectful debate with others at the firm.

    The ability to take risks and hold non-consensus investment views is critical, as is maintaining the humility to admit mistakes and course correct as new information comes to light.

    The role requires striking a good balance of intellectual curiosity, and the ability to make decisions with incomplete information.
    Additional qualifications and individual characteristics are likely to include:

    • The highest standards of personal and professional integrity and ethics
    • A minimum of 10 years' relevant investment research experience
    • Demonstrable knowledge of the consumer sector and companies within it
    • Strong academic background, ideally including a CFA and/or MBA
    • History of professional achievement
    • Portfolio management experience is preferredNot sure you meet 100% of our qualifications? That's ok.
