Calculate and validate portfolio performance on a monthly and quarterly cycle at the account, composite, and asset class levels, including attribution analysis relative to benchmarks and policy portfolios.
Produce recurring performance reporting packages and support the preparation of client-facing performance materials.
Support the investment team with portfolio analytics, exposure reporting, and data requests for investment committee and client materials.
Proactively identify operational inefficiencies and contribute to the development of automated workflows, reporting tools, and data infrastructure using AI, scripting, and workflow automation tools to improve accuracy and scalability.
Document operational procedures and controls, and identify opportunities to strengthen them as the platform grows.
3-5 years of experience in investment operations, middle office, fund administration, custody, or performance measurement at an institutional-quality asset management firm, fund administrator, or custodian.
Working knowledge of the trade lifecycle, including trade capture, confirmation, settlement conventions across asset classes, corporate actions, and familiarity with performance measurement and attribution methodologies.

Clear written and verbal communication, with the ability to explain operational issues and performance results to investment professionals and non-technical audiences alike.
For all positions in Quebec, proficiency in French and English, both spoken and written, is mandatory. English is required due to regular interaction with colleagues and external partners outside Quebec.
