Join us as a Client Portfolio Manager

The BBH Investment Research Group (IRG) is the centralized investment team within BBH's Multi-Family Office (MFO) business that is responsible for asset allocation, portfolio construction, manager selection and monitoring, risk management, and other investment-related decisions for our clients. Currently IRG oversees an asset base in excess of $56 billion dollars that is invested in over 25 different internal and external investment strategies.

As part of IRG's dual mission of delivering investment excellence and inspiring client confidence, we recently launched the Client Portfolio Management & Strategy ("CPMS") team, which is responsible for communicating our best investment thinking to our client teams and our clients.

This Client Portfolio Manager position is a newly created role, reporting directly to the Head of CPMS. The CPMS team is integrated into the investment team, remaining current and informed on investment managers and portfolio strategy.

The CPMS team works closely with 1) the Investment Research Team in IRG, keeping abreast of investment philosophy and approach, manager selection and market updates; 2) the Relationship Managers to ensure that clients' portfolios reflect IRG's best thinking, balanced with each client's respective goals and objectives; and 3) the Investment Operations & Analytics Team within IRG, which is responsible for executing IRG decisions, including manager onboarding and technology implementation.
