Analyst, Investments

4 days ago

Redwood City, California, United States Chan Zuckerberg Initiative Full time $100,000 - $120,000
The Team

Across our work in Science, Education, and within our communities, we pair technology with grantmaking and collaboration to help accelerate the pace of progress toward our mission. Our Investment team provides the support needed to push this work forward. 

The investment team's goal is to manage the investment portfolio to fund CZI's ongoing operations over the long term. The investment program pursues a "manager of managers" approach, scouring the globe to find extraordinary investment organizations that invest across a wide spectrum of styles and asset classes. 

The Opportunity

CZI's investment analyst program offers the unique opportunity to learn about the world of investing. The investment team seeks to build a portfolio that will deliver superior risk-adjusted returns to fund CZI's ongoing operations. We pursue a manager of managers approach, seeking out exceptional partners that invest across geographies into public equities, hedge funds, leveraged buyouts, venture capital, and real assets. Investment analysts will have broad exposure to all asset classes, while focusing on a subset day-to-day.

Investment analysts enjoy early responsibility, work directly with senior staff, and are engaged in all aspects of the investment process from day one. This includes traveling to participate in meetings with world-class investment managers, closely monitoring existing investments, and helping manage and report on the portfolio as a whole. 

We are looking for intellectually curious candidates with an interest in investing, exceptional communication skills, and a desire to work collaboratively as part of a team. We value thoughtfulness, analytical rigor, and the pursuit of excellence.

Please note that CZI also has a separate team that makes mission-aligned impact venture investments. That work sits outside of the Investments function.

What You'll Do
  • Conduct due diligence on existing and prospective investment managers, including participating in meetings and calls, and play an active role in internal discussions related to investment decisions
  • Build investment models, develop performance analyses, and monitor exposures at both the fund and portfolio level utilizing software/systems (including Excel)
  • Prepare materials for internal team meetings, external manager meetings, and quarterly board meetings
  • Research financial markets, including preparing periodic updates on financial market performance and "deep dives" into specific areas of interest 
  • Travel for investment-related research from time to time
  • Build relationships with investment managers and peer institutions
  • Develop a toolkit and grow as an investor through hands-on training and mentorship
What You'll Bring
  • An ideal candidate is a college senior (class of 2026) looking for job opportunities after graduation. We welcome all majors to apply
  • Strong intellectual curiosity
  • An interest in financial markets and desire to learn how to build successful investment portfolios 
  • An ability to work collaboratively in a team environment
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Strong quantitative and analytical skills
  • Strong time management skills with ability to multi-task and prioritize across projects to meet deadlines

Please have your completed application submitted by 9:00 PM PT on Sunday, October 26th. 

Compensation

The Redwood City, CA base pay range for this role is $100,000-$120,000. New hires are typically hired into the lower portion of the range, enabling employee growth in the range over time. Actual placement in range is based on job-related skills and experience, as evaluated throughout the interview process. 

Benefits for the Whole You 

We're thankful to have an incredible team behind our work. To honor their commitment, we offer a wide range of benefits to support the people who make all we do possible. 

  • CZI provides a generous employer match on employee 401(k) contributions to support planning for the future.
  • Annual benefit for employees that can be used most meaningfully for them and their families, such as housing, student loan repayment, childcare, commuter costs, or other life needs.
  • CZI Life of Service Gifts are awarded to employees to "live the mission" and support the causes closest to them.
  • Paid time off to volunteer at an organization of your choice. 
  • Funding for select family-forming benefits. 
  • Relocation support for employees who need assistance moving to the Bay Area
  • And more

If you're interested in a role but your previous experience doesn't perfectly align with each qualification in the job description, we still encourage you to apply as you may be the perfect fit for this or another role.
