Job description

Who We Are:
Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. ("Oppenheimer") is a leading middle-market investment bank and full-service broker-dealer. With roots tracing back to 1881, the Company is engaged in a broad range of activities in the financial services industry, including retail securities brokerage, institutional sales and trading, investment banking (both corporate and public finance), equity & fixed income research, market making, trust services and investment advisory and asset management services.
Job Description:
Oppenheimer & Co. Inc., a leading mid-tier investment bank, is currently seeking an equity research associate to support our Semiconductors team. The position is located in New York City.
The research associate will work in conjunction with and support the senior research analyst in all aspects of developing and marketing equity research products, including company research reports, models, and industry analysis on the Semiconductor supply chain. The position demands independence, initiative, and entrepreneurship.
The candidate must have a strong background in finance and accounting, be proficient at modeling companies, and have a passion for equity research. Candidates with strong interest and/or background in technology welcomed. In addition, qualified candidates must be able to demonstrate that they are detailed-oriented, possess an ability to write concisely, and can work well under pressure.
In addition to the above, we are looking for a person who possesses, or has the potential to possess, the following characteristics:
  • Strong financial modeling, accounting, valuation, and quantitative skills. Associates are responsible for building and maintaining integrated I/S, B/S, and C/F models, and for organizing and maintaining industry data.
  • Strong writing and analytical skills. Associates are responsible for writing and producing company initiations, equity research reports, and marketing presentations.
  • A passion for the stock market, the technology industry, and equity research. It is highly advantageous to have exposure to the financial markets and equity research, as well as an understanding of the day-to-day responsibilities of an equity research associate.
  • Strong sales and communication skills. Associates will interact with internal sales and trading and external clients. Responsiveness and professionalism are important.
  • Ability to work independently and initiate and accomplish projects with minimal supervision. Self-starters with a strong work ethic are highly desirable. These are necessary skills given the dynamic working environment and demands of working on Wall Street.
  • Ability to organize, prioritize and manage multiple projects simultaneously.
  • PC skills: the position requires strong Excel skills and a fair command of Word, PowerPoint, Bloomberg and FactSet.
