About Dominus
Dominus is a leading real estate investor, developer, owner and operator specialising in hotels and student living across central London and in key UK cities. Founded in 2011, we have built a £3 billion asset pipeline through investing our own equity and co-investing alongside institutional joint venture partners.
As a fully integrated business, we create value across the entire project lifecycle. Our teams span investment, planning, development, finance, legal and asset management. Our portfolio of hotels is managed by Dominus Hospitality, our dedicated operating platform, and operate under Hilton and Marriott brands.
The role is based in our London head office, a team of 60, with a further 380 colleagues working across our hotel portfolio.
Role Description
As we continue to scale, we require a senior investment analyst to work across our growing portfolio of hotel and student living assets. The successful candidate will work closely with our investment team across the entire lifecycle of our portfolio. This will include underwriting new projects, the coordination and preparation of materials for investment committee, financing throughout the asset lifecycle (acquisition loans, development loans and investment loans) and assist with financial analysis of owned assets. This will include working closely with the development team on development projects and working with the operations team once assets are completed and operational. The successful candidate will be expected to take a hands-on approach and assist with a variety of tasks.
