What you'll need
A completed Bachelor's degree in Finance, mins 3 years experience gained in performance/investment analysis, with proven experience in return and ratio calculations, advanced Excel, Python for analysis/reporting, strong problem-solving and communication skills, and the ability to meet tight deadlines.
