Portfolio Management Associate, Data & Analytics
Department: Capital Markets
Employment Type: Permanent
Location: London
Reporting To: Georgios Karameros
Description
We are seeking a Portfolio Management Associate, Data & Analytics to join our Capital Markets team. You will build the code and data models that monitor our capital mandates, and own the performance and scenario analysis that goes to our lenders, investors and senior management — the infrastructure and the interpretation.
Key Responsibilities
- Own portfolio monitoring for our capital mandates end to end — write the code that produces the numbers, then own the read on what they mean and what we should do about it
- Build and automate the monitoring and reporting that tracks performance, covenant headroom and facility utilisation, replacing manual processes with pipelines that run themselves
- Design the dashboards and visualisations that senior executives, lenders and investors rely on, and stand behind the accuracy and the commentary that goes with them
- Assess and manage the performance of underlying capital mandates: vintage and cohort analysis, loss curves, yield and advance-rate decomposition, and the early-warning indicators that flag problems before month end
- Build the scenario and sensitivity analysis — stress cases, downside macro scenarios and structural what-ifs — and interpret the output to inform capital allocation, facility sizing and pricing decisions
- Develop and maintain cashflow and waterfall models supporting portfolio decision-making, new facility structuring and refinancing
- Write production-quality SQL and Python and build database tables and dbt models alongside our data engineering teams, so that monitoring is self-serve rather than a recurring manual task
- Bring engineering discipline to analytical work — version control, code review, testing and documentation — and help set that standard across the team
- Translate analysis into a clear recommendation: identify the trend, size the impact, and communicate it directly to senior stakeholders and external counterparties
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Skills, Knowledge & Expertise
- 3–5 years of experience in data analytics, capital markets, structured finance, credit risk or a comparable quantitative role — ideally within Finance or FinTech
- Strong academic background including at least a Bachelor's degree (Mathematics, Engineering, Statistics, Computer Science, Computational Finance, Economics) or equivalent
- Advanced, hands-on SQL and Python — you build and maintain analytical code and automation yourself rather than specifying it for someone else
- The analytical judgement to go with it: you can interpret what you have built, spot when a number is wrong, and know when a model is answering the wrong question
- Demonstrated experience with data visualisation tools (e.g. Tableau, Power BI, Looker), including building and owning dashboards that other people depend on
- Solid grounding in financial analysis and cashflow modelling
- Exceptional communication skills, with a track record of delivering insight to diverse and senior stakeholders
